When it comes to public safety, a community shouldn’t settle for “good enough.”

And neither should those who work tirelessly to keep our community safe and secure. That’s why so much innovation went into designing the PR1500 Professional Series two-way radio from Motorola.

The housing and control knobs of the PR1500 are rugged and tough. But what really sets this radio apart is how it performs. You’ll notice a rich, full audio that can be customized for your ear as well

as the environment. The PR1500 also offers enhanced performance that delivers wide range and improved battery life.

P25 Conventional Upgradeable

With a single software upgrade, the PR1500 becomes P25 interoperable. This essential feature gives you the ability to interact with other networks in times of crisis.
