Business Wire
Motorola Solutions, Inc. (NYSE: MSI) won a contract from the
Denver Regional Transportation District (RTD) to move transit voice
operations to the Colorado Statewide Digital Trunked Radio System
(DTRS). This is the first major transit agency moving to a
statewide Project 25 (P25) system in the country. This contract
replaces analog UHF technology with 7/800MHz ASTRO® 25 digital
P25-standard infrastructure and prepares Denver RTD for the VHF/UHF
Narrowbanding mandate with the new ASTRO 25 digital P25
infrastructure and technology.
From the Motorola MetroCom Bus Transit Communications System
introduced in 1974, to today’s evolving communications equipment,
Motorola provides state and metropolitan public transportation
agencies with solutions that help transportation systems run safer
and more efficiently.
KEY FACTS
- Motorola will provide more than 2,300
mobile and portable radios for Denver RTD’s fleet of vehicles.
Motorola was chosen from the four other competing vendors that have
radios certified to work with the statewide system.
- The new mobile radios will be
integrated with the in-vehicle transit control head providing
expanded voice coverage and enhancing the security of drivers and
passengers in Denver RTD’s service area, which serves nearly 2.8
million people.
- By joining the DTRS ASTRO 25 system,
Denver RTD employees will now have direct interoperability with all
other law enforcement and public safety agencies on the Colorado
statewide system through standards-based P25 technology.
- By using the statewide DTRS, Denver RTD
will have the flexibility to leverage the DTRS extensive coverage
as future routes expand.
- In addition, the infrastructure
expansion contract will add more capacity to the existing network,
helping to reduce voice channel congestion and enable 700MHz and
800MHz mixed talkgroup operations in the metro area.
- All existing state and local users on
the DTRS will benefit from these enhancements with further
interoperability and clear voice communications.
