Motorola Solutions has won a five year contract from the Portuguese Ministry of the Internal Administration.
The company will “maintain and enhance” the country’s mission-critical public safety communications network.
Motorola claims that the agreement “enables 180 public safety agencies and 40,000 first responders including police, fire and medical services to benefit from a modern, highly reliable and secure TETRA communications network”.
Michael Kaae, corporate vice president at Motorola Solutions, said: “We value and respect the trusted partnership we have shared with SIRESP and Portugal’s public safety organizations for many years
“Public safety communications is an essential service that must operate at the highest levels and in the harshest environments. With the combination of our resilient, purpose-built technology and strong local team of communications experts, we’re proud to continue supporting Portugal’s public safety agencies in their mission to protect the nation’s communities.”
Portugal relies on TETRA digital radios and networks for mission-critical voice communications for public safety organizations.
