Radios play a vital role in many different fields, and there is considerable variety in what different industries require in terms of functions and features. Discover the KENWOOD solutions right for your organization.
Airports
An airport has to accommodate a large number of staff in one location and so radio traffic can reach very high levels. Yet it is essential to be ready to deal with fast-moving developments and potential disasters, with a high level of security. For this reason, commands from a control center have to be prioritized over calls between radios. Solutions that perfectly match the scale of your operations are available using KENWOOD radios.

Factory
Factories and industrial units are typically subject to all sorts of ambient noise. Even in such an environment, KENWOOD sound optimization technology accurately replicates natural human speech nuances for superior voice quality. And there is no cause for concern just because your enterprise still uses FM analog equipment: KENWOOD radios switch between digital and analog modes, which also allows for seamless migration at your own pace.
