Motorola Solutions MOTOTRBO Ion Smart Radio

Keep your team connected with smart radio communications, broadband data and app integration capabilities.

The Ion Smart Radio brings together the versatility of modern network-connected Android technology with the reliability and simplicity of two-way radio communication. As part of Motorola’s MOTOTRBO digital two-way communication system, the Ion Smart Radio is designed to provide business-critical communication across digital and analogue channels.

The Motorola ION smart radio has the ability to run android applications.

Motorola’s two-way radios are widely known as rugged, go-anywhere site communications solutions, but the addition of a touchscreen-powered Android system opens a new world of possibilities. Install barcode scanning and inventory management apps to turn the Ion into an all-in-one warehousing tool or add email and messaging functions to foster collaboration and innovation.

Extend your radio signal with a smart radio’s broadband network compatibility.

An open app ecosystem, full multimedia capabilities and broadband data connectivity come together with Motorola’s trusted PTT technology to create a versatile communications device suited to any environment. Seamless integration with existing systems means that the Ion can function across networks, switching automatically to broadband when outside your traditional radio coverage, while rugged casing materials and IP68-tested hardware keep damage and downtime to a minimum.

Android is the global standard from open app ecosystems. Install, manage and customise apps from the Google Play store to create the best communication device for your needs.

IP68 is the highest ingress protection rating for mobile communications devices, providing top-level dust protection and water resistance. The rugged casing is also designed to protect against drops, knocks and all the daily wear and tear of site work.

As part of the market-leading Motorola range, the MOTOTRBO Ion has the capability to slot seamlessly into existing communications networks, sync with cameras and base stations and relay audio through trunking lines and other transmitters.

The addition of a 13 megapixel camera and 4-inch, hi-res touch screen makes it simple to take and share photos, scan barcodes and QR codes, view documents and manage information while on site or in the field.

The option to link up with local Wi-Fi or wider satellite networks ensures that your MOTOTRBO Ion smart radio will never be out of range. Automatic switching makes it simple for you to find the right network and avoid downtime.

Push to talk (PTT) is the standard for two-way radios and site communications, but the medium of communication can vary. The MOTOTRBO Ion allows for voice relay via traditional radio signals, digital mobile radio (DMR), LTE / PoC and much more, so whatever the network – or networks – in use on your site, constant connection is guaranteed.
