TETRA digital radio solutions chosen to deliver
a smooth and successful event
Motorola Solutions (NYSE:MSI) has been chosen as official radio
communications supplier for the Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games
(GC2018).
The global, 11-day sporting spectacular will attract 6,600
athletes and team officials from 70 nations and territories, 15,000
volunteers and be broadcast to a cumulative international audience
of 1.5 billion.
Ensuring an event of this scale delivers a positive experience
for guests and athletes depends on clear and reliable voice
communications working constantly behind the scenes.
Motorola Solutions’ TETRA digital radios and its Zeon Digital
network will be used to keep sporting venues connected to seamless
information while helping to keep crowds moving and spectators and
athletes informed and safe.
The Zeon Digital network will provide reliable communications
and expansive coverage with more than 6,000 radios to be used
across the Gold Coast and Brisbane and in other regional centres
including Townsville and Cairns.
Motorola Solutions has cemented its reputation for supporting
major events in Australia, including the G20 World Leaders’ Summit,
the premier forum for economic cooperation and decision-making,
held in Brisbane in November 2014.
Internationally, Motorola Solutions has provided essential
communications to public safety agencies responsible for safety and
security at some of the world’s largest sporting and public
events.
Commonwealth Games Minister Kate Jones today welcomed Motorola
Solutions as the official radio communications supplier for the
Games.
“The company has a proven track record in Queensland providing
crucial communications support for our emergency services and I’m
pleased they’ve come on board for the Games.
“Our Games are well on the way to becoming one of Queensland’s
greatest sporting success stories.”
Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games Corporation Chairman, Peter
Beattie AC, said choosing the best radio communications provider
was an essential part of Games delivery.
“Event day communications are essential to delivering the Games
in a coordinated and efficient manner.
“We confidently chose Motorola Solutions knowing their strong
history of providing reliable communications services at
international events.
“Motorola Solutions are a globally respected business and we’re
pleased to welcome them to the GC2018 Sponsor Family. They have the
experience, systems and capabilities to help our team deliver a
great Games,” Mr. Beattie said.
Steve Crutchfield, vice president and managing director of
Motorola Solutions Australia and New Zealand said his company was
pleased to continue its support for Queensland’s economy and
communities through enhanced digital communications.
“Our work in Queensland spans a considerable number of projects
and services - from the mission-critical communications that 15,000
emergency service workers depend on every day, to keeping essential
public utility and transportation services running efficiently, and
even working on the set of Hollywood blockbusters filmed on the
Gold Coast.
“We’re looking forward to supporting the largest sporting event
in Australia this decade and playing our part in making GC2018 a
hugely successful international event,” Mr. Crutchfield said.
