What Are Good Replacements For Discontinued Vertex Two-Way Radios?

Posted by Two Way Direct on 28th Jun 2021

Why the discontinuation? Vertex radios were absorbed by Motorola to maximize strengths and better serve the marketplace.

This is not new news, however, it is good to know if you are new to two-way radios or are finally transitioning your current Vertex fleet over to Motorola.

Comparable Motorola Models

Do you have a Vertex two-way radio that is now discontinued? Motorola has some radio alternatives that you can transition to.

For example, some companies have transitioned from Vertex VX261 radios to the new Motorola CP100D two-way radio. Other radios that companies have switched to include Motorola CP200D, Motorola BPR40, Motorola SL300, and the Motorola EVX.

If you are looking for lower-tiered radios, the Motorola CLS1110, CLS1410, and VL50 are a great option.
