Precision Location Tracking Launched
On Two Way Radio Motorola has launched the world’s first multi-constellation satellite tracking system for two way radio handsets.
Renowned for its innovation in digital two way radio technology, Motorola has introduced an upgrade to its premium MOTOTRBO range, the E-series. Enhanced location tracking is one of a number of new features included.
Multi-constellation tracking gets its name from the fact that it uses more than one satellite system. As well as GPS, E-series handsets also use Russian GLONASS satellite navigation. By cross referencing location data from both systems, Motorola’s handsets can pinpoint location to a much higher degree of accuracy.
The DP4801e is the top-of-the-range model in the E-series. Designed to assist managers and supervisors in delivering mission critical

communications when coordinating a large workforce, the DP4801e is packed full of advanced features.
As well as multi-constellation location tracking, it also supports Bluetooth 4.0 for beacon-based indoor location monitoring. Whether using satellite or Bluetooth beacons, the technology can share data with a control room via WiFi to provide up-to-date information about where personnel are located. This helps
to grow. We are looking forward to meeting the transferring staff and working with them to make Tivoli a market leading independent grounds maintenance business in the UK.”
Tivoli Group Limited will be focused on excellence in Grounds Maintenance for public sector, defence and corporate clients across the UK. The business will remain connected to ISS through their many shared clients.
Managing Director of ISS Landscaping, Phil Jones, commented: “I would
like to thank ISS for their support over the past several years building ISS Landscaping into a strong grounds maintenance business. With Sullivan Street, I look forward to the next phase of development where we will make Tivoli the pre- eminent environment for talented staff to build a grounds maintenance focused career and for clients to experience the very best service levels in the market.”

to support more efficient work and resource allocation and provide better safety protocols.
Aside from location tracking services, the DP4801e includes a range of communication options. It can be used to make private and group calls as well as whole-network broadcasts, and supports a work allocation ticket. A display model with a four-line colour screen, it can also be used to send and receive text messages, and can be connected into a business telephone system.
Other benefits of the E-series cover a general upgrade in performance. The DP4801e boasts 16% better signal coverage than previous comparable models from Motorola, making it more reliable operating across larger areas. It can operate for up to 29 hours on a single charge, and audio quality is arguably the best available from any two way radio model, with a redesigned amplifier providing advanced noise cancellation and intelligent volume control.
