How the Right Construction Radio Can Make a Difference at Any Job Site

Fewer industries pose more challenges to everyday communication and safety than construction. Construction companies must adapt to their ever-changing and dynamic projects, from infrastructure builds and repairs to industrial and commercial construction. No matter how small or tall the order, construction requires the utmost safety and productivity in order to complete a project successfully.

Communication is the key to ensuring safe and efficient work. Motorola Solutions recognizes the unique challenges that construction workers face on a daily basis. Their response? A wide range of rugged, versatile, and dependable communication devices to effectively overcome these obstacles.

Two-way radio communication for construction isn’t a luxury anymore— it’s a necessity. The right communication radios can make a monumental difference in any job environment. Here’s how.

Loud & Clear Audio

Not many job environments are as noisy as a construction site. Without the right devices, noise pollution can obstruct critical messages between your site workers, thus impeding on their production pace, collaboration, and most of all, their safety. Motorola Solutions tailors its two-way radios to combat noisy construction environments with crystal-clear audio.

MOTOTRBO Portables offer some of the best audio technology available to the construction industry. For example, the XPR Series is renowned for its Intelligent Audio feature, which automatically adjusts volume to overcome background noise. Your workers will spend less time fidgeting with their audio settings or asking for messages to be repeated and more time communicating what matters most in the moment.

Always-On Communication

No two construction projects are exactly alike. Your communication devices should be as adaptable as the workers that use them. MOTOTRBO Digital Radio Systems can keep up with the pace and environment of your project, with longer battery life, durable designs, and easy migration between analog and digital systems.

MOTOTRBO products are built to survive the harsh conditions of everyday business. This series of rugged, waterproof, and intrinsically safe radios endure a rigorous Accelerated Life Testing (ALT) purpose-built device, which simulates up to 5 years of field use. Because MOTOTRBO radios use much less power in digital mode than analog, batteries last significantly longer on a single charge.

Prioritizing Safety

There’s no sugarcoating it: Construction is dangerous work. In the midst of any emergency, every second counts to inform on-site crews and safely respond to the issue— sometimes, audio communication isn’t the best method.

With the industry’s largest Application Developer Program, MOTOTRBO offers a wide range of data applications to expand communication beyond voice. Plus, you can work directly with third-party developers or your IT staff to create customized applications for your unique needs.

MOTOTRBO has innovative features such as Transmit Interrupt, which lets you prioritize communication the moment it’s needed. Man Down and Lone Worker applications call for help when personnel can’t. GPS location-tracking monitors vehicles, assets, and users in real-time, making sure there aren’t any questions about where your crew members are.

Sitewide Connectivity

Communicating efficiently can become complicated for construction projects that span multiple site locations. No matter how many users or sites your project involves, the right system will scale to your liking and work just as efficiently. You can effortlessly reach everyone, everywhere with MOTOTRBO systems.

MOTOTRBO’s IP Site Connect feature allows you to extend voice and data capabilities via internet connection. Link up to 15 sites at geographically dispersed locations, create wide-area coverage, or enhance coverage at a single site with physical barriers— whatever your scenario, MOTOTRBO can keep your crew connected.

Dealing with a large number of crew members? Capacity Plus expands the capacity of your MOTOTRBO communication system even further. Over a thousand radio users can quickly and efficiently share business-critical voice and data communication on the same system without having to add new frequencies.

Remaster Your Workforce

Whether your construction crew is collaborating across multiple sites, handling an emergency situation, or simply looking to stay updated and informed about their daily to-dos, the right two-way radio can make a tremendous difference on the efficiency, productivity, and safety of your workforce.
