The Two-Way Radio Shortage and What To Do

November 21, 2022/0 Comments/in Relay for Business

If your business relies on two-way radios, you’re not alone. Two-way radios are a vital piece of equipment for many industries including construction, manufacturing, hospitality, and more. However, due to the ongoing pandemic, there is currently a global shortage of two-way radios. In this blog post, we’ll take a look at the factors causing the shortage and what your business can do to combat this issue.

 

What’s causing the two-way radio shortage?

There are a few factors contributing to the current shortage of two-way radios. First, factories that produce two-way radios have been forced to close or operate at reduced capacity due to lockdowns and supply chain disruptions from the pandemic. Second, the production of semiconductor chips used in radios, cars, computers, and more, was cut in the beginning of the pandemic despite demand for these products being high. As a result, the production of two-way radios has not been unable to keep up with demand, leading to the current shortage.

 

What two-way radios are limited in stock or have longer than normal delivery times? 

Low stock coupled with longer than normal delivery times are causing businesses to suffer from the lack of necessary resources to keep up with communication demands. Limited stock and longer than normal delivery times are crippling distributors and resellers, some of which are not expected to deliver before at least 12 weeks. Here are some models that are currently impacted: 

  • Motorola XPR 7550e 
  • Motorola XPR 3500e
  • Motorola Mototrbo R7
  • Motorola TLK100 
  • Motorola SL300 
  • Kenwood NX-P1200ISNVK

 

What should you do if you need new radios?

The current two-way radio shortage is having a huge impact on all types of businesses. If you rely on two-way radios for daily operations, now is the time to consider alternatives, and that’s how we can help.
