environments
Motorola Solutions (NYSE: MSI) today announced the launch of the
APX NEXT® XE, its next-generation Project 25 (P25) radio with
broadband capabilities, specifically built for firefighters. It
combines mission-critical voice communications with data
applications that bring together radio voice control, messaging,
mapping and vital new collaboration applications that can help
improve situational awareness of those in the field. APX NEXT XE,
and its predecessor, APX NEXT® for law enforcement, were designed
based upon thousands of hours of customer-centric, hands-on
research.

“My department was one of many that provided feedback to
Motorola Solutions during the design and testing of the APX NEXT
XE, providing insights on how firefighters communicate during a
fire, what we need in a radio and how to improve upon existing
technology,” said Mike Moser, Deputy Fire Chief, Coral
Springs-Parkland Fire Department, Coral Springs, Florida. “Motorola
Solutions was looking for input on every aspect of this radio, such
as the ergonomics, touchscreen display and the usability of
broadband applications for first responders. We believe that the
APX NEXT XE has the potential to be truly lifesaving technology, by
allowing firefighters to communicate seamlessly and effortlessly in
the most critical circumstances."
Firefighters rise to the call of duty at any time and in any
place, and APX NEXT XE is designed to enable fast responses and
improve safety. With APX NEXT XE’s applications, users can switch
automatically between P25 and broadband when they travel out of
county or state, find each other on an interactive map, share
multimedia messages, and keep dispatch informed with GPS locations
updated every few seconds. The right configuration is critical to a
proper response, and an entire fleet of APX NEXT XE radios can be
remotely updated over LTE in minutes, while they remain in the
field.
“A fire crew has to be ready for anything – from responding to
medical emergencies, conducting technical rescues to tackling
wildfires,” said Scott Mottonen, senior vice president of Products,
Motorola Solutions. “While voice communications remain a
firefighter’s lifeline, we designed the APX NEXT XE for the variety
of tasks that each day may bring. When preparing for a rescue, they
can receive pictures and videos of the obstacles they will need to
tackle. When time is of the essence, they can also see each others’
locations on a live map. These are just a few examples of what is
possible with our most advanced fire radio.”
APX NEXT XE is offered with ViQi™ Voice Control, which enables
users to control their radio through simple and intuitive voice
commands. It allows fire personnel to perform actions such as
change the radio channel, check battery status, adjust the volume
of the radio and more with one touch of the dedicated ViQi button,
so their attention remains on the task-at-hand. ViQi Voice Control
is designed to work in the loud environments found on the
fireground, with high dynamic range microphones that improve
intelligibility and clearer speech.
APX NEXT XE is built with the form factor and advanced audio
processing that firefighters have trusted for years in the
award-winning APX® XE line of radios. It maintains the push-to-talk
functionality long relied on to relay critical information and
introduces new performance enhancements, such as a glove-friendly
touchscreen. The APX NEXT XE has a rugged exterior and is built to
withstand extreme environments, from high heat to water exposure
and submersion, that a firefighter faces in the field.
Motorola Solutions’ APX NEXT is certified for use on FirstNet®
and the AT&T and Verizon networks in the U.S. and the Bell
Mobility network in Canada. APX NEXT XE is pending certification
for use on the same networks. The radios are available in single
and multi-band configurations.
