SCHAUMBURG, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Vertex Standard LMR, Inc., a leading manufacturer of two-way radios, today announced the launch of two digital portable radios – the EVX-261 and EVX-S24 – as the company celebrates its 60thanniversary. The devices build on Vertex Standard’s portfolio of products that help customers migrate from analog to digital. The radios will be showcased at this year’s annual International Wireless Communications Expo (IWCE).

“We’ve been in the business of building quality radios for 60 years. There’s no better place to celebrate this milestone – and two new products – than at IWCE with our colleagues and, most importantly, our customers,” said Mike Petersen, director and general manager of Vertex Standard. “This anniversary gives us the opportunity to highlight our achievements, celebrate our commitment to customers and define the future of radio technology at Vertex Standard.”

The EVX-261 and EVX-S24 function in analog and digital, are easy-to-use and priced to meet customers’ needs. Both radios allow for critical, interference-free communications and interoperability with other communication devices. The EVX-261, available in mid-2016, is highly durable, delivering superior sound quality for industries such as manufacturing and construction. The EVX-S24, also available in mid-2016, is the smallest EVX series radio manufactured by Vertex Standard; its slim, lightweight body makes it ideal for the retail, education and hospitality markets.

“With the EVX-261 and EVX-S24, we are giving our customers the ability to do more for less, without sacrificing quality. This is what drives our business and innovation; our customers deserve to connect without compromise, and we will continue to develop products that deliver on this promise,” Petersen added.
