Miami, Florida — August 6, 2015 — A power outage, a failure in the water supply system and a flood warning have something in common; they are community-sensitive events that require dependable communications. Motorola Solutions (NYSE: MSI) is addressing these critical operational needs with the new APX 1000 portable two-way radio and its mobile version, the APX 1500, which ensure communication and connectivity.
