Theย Band Administration Entity (EAF), an organization created by the Brazilian Telecommunications Agency (Anatel), has selected Motorola Solutions to implement a new federal mission-critical communications solution in Brazil.
According to Motorola Solutions, the solution will enable Brazilโs defense and public safety organizations to seamlessly collaborate during joint missions.
Motorola Solutions will integrate multiple existing land mobile radio (LMR) systems and add new mission-critical Push-to-X (MCX) broadband services to enhance interagency interoperability and access to data applications to better protect Brazilโs communities.
Motorola Solutions says that it will implement WAVE PTX, a 3GPP standards-compliant communications platform that will run on the governmentโs private 4G network, and Critical Connect, a service that will enable interoperability between the 4G network and P25, TETRA and DMR land mobile radio systems.
As a combined nationwide solution, organizations like the Brazilian Army, the Federal Highway Patrol and the Distrito Federal Military Police will be equipped with LMR voice communications together with advanced broadband capabilities, including video streaming and the ability to share rich data and multimedia.
“Efficiently addressing drug trafficking, organized crime and natural disasters demands highly coordinated multi-agency responses,” said Geraldo Segatto, Head of Government Private Network Project at EAF.
โIn the past, defense and public safety agencies, each using separate communication systems, struggled with real-time coordination, causing delays that undermined response efforts.
“The new solution eliminates these communication barriers, enabling reliable connectivity for federal agencies and, in its next phase, state military and civil police, to significantly improve response times and mission success.”
“Motorola Solutions is proud to support Brazilโs vision for public safety modernization by delivering a communications platform that bridges the proven reliability of land mobile radio technology with the media-rich capabilities of MCX broadband services,” said Edison Ambrosio, Sales Director, Defense and Federal Markets, Motorola Solutions.
“This integration provides Brazilโs defense and public safety agencies with resilience, enhanced situational awareness and seamless interoperability for faster and more effective emergency response across the nation.”
