Our Integrated Communication Solutions Enhance School Safety And Improve Efficiency
We know that your district is constantly being pressed to boost student safety and increase staff efficiency on an ever-shrinking budget. Our instant, reliable communication solutions excel at helping keep students and staff safer, tracking bus fleets accurately, and improving overall efficiency – with flexible options you can afford.
Solutions
Improve Operational Efficiency
Boost productivity and cut costs with real-time mobile connectivity.
When you need to communicate quickly and easily with all school personnel, the best way is over two-way radio. With the touch of a button, you securely link multiple teams across the district. Deliver voice, data and video information to staff instantly, wherever they go, from the school principal to the campus electrician.
Motorola’s next-generation solutions ensure staff can respond rapidly and work efficiently wherever they go. With durable devices and school-specific systems, you’ll have technology that connects directly to your needs.
Bus Fleet Tracking And Management
Coordinate your fleet with exceptional efficiency.
Need to contact a student on the bus, redirect a vehicle or make sure your fleet is adhering to its route? The integrated GPS on Motorola’s radios helps you monitor their location and manage logistics. Now schools can track each vehicle to improve security, increase student safety and effectively respond to emergencies, weather events, traffic and more.
Features like “emergency call buttons” alert dispatch when drivers need assistance. Remote monitoring lets you listen in when a driver is unable to respond. Data applications inspect buses, check fuel usage, track upkeep and inform you if bus doors are left open or drivers are on duty. We designed our fleet management solutions to keep your drivers connected with schools efficiently and safely, wherever they go.
Discover how improved safety, increased personnel accountability and realized cost-savings with MOTOTRBO digital radios integrated with GPS and the WAVE smartphone app.
Communicate With Added Intelligence
Drive safety home with operations-critical applications.
GPS location tracking on two-way radios helps schools monitor bus locations and manage logistics. Bus-fleet managers can determine the speed and location of vehicles, engine alerts, hard braking, fuel consumption and ignition status. They can re-route buses around local accidents and traffic jams, pinpoint where a bus is in real time, and see whether a driver is deviating from the route. Other apps enable schools to inspect buses, track upkeep and inform them if bus doors are left open and if drivers are on duty.
Operations-critical apps beyond the fleet also enhance safety, increase efficiency and reduce costs. Security personnel can be automatically notified if a school door or gate is breached and remotely open or close it. Maintenance can turn lights on or off, control sprinklers and handle a multitude of other tasks with their two-way radios.

Digital Makes Two-Way Radio Communications Better
Better Call Quality
Audio - Digital applies error correction to eliminate noise and static and preserves voice quality over a greater range so users can hear what is being said crisp and clear. Use of the AMBE+2™ vocoder further improves speech transmission quality in noisy environments while achieving spectrum efficiency.
Coverage – Digital enables users to make more calls to more places. A digital signal stays strong and clear until it reaches its maximum range. There is no deterioration in the signal, providing greater usable range in areas where two-way communication was not possible in the past.
Better Call Management
Control - A common desire amongst analog radio users is to control who receives a message and avoid broadcasting messages to a wide group of listeners. Digital makes this possible with unique IDs assigned to each radio. A user can selectively call specific individuals or groups by selecting the radio ID(s) to direct a message only to those who need the information.
Digital Radio Benefits
- Range - Intelligible speech over a longer distance.
- Quality - Crisp and clear, even in fringe coverage areas.
- Capacity - Twice the capacity of analog radio in the same channel.
- Talk-Time - Up to 40% longer battery life than analog radio.
- Features - Increased opportunity for innovation.
