The truth is that dealers are very uncomfortable selling Hytera right now, and since Vertex radios are being re-branded as Motorola, RCA is the logical choice for dealers who need affordable, durable equipment

Discount Two-Way Radio and RCA Communications Systems, leading providers of RCA industrial-grade two-way radio equipment, today announced record breaking growth for their national authorized dealer network. Launched in late June 2020, the expansion campaign targeted acquiring at least 200 dealer locations within the next five years. To date, more than 100 RCA two-way radio dealer locations have signed agreements to represent RCA Communications Systems across the country, representing a 75 percent increase in growth since launching the strategy.

“We are extremely thrilled with how receptive the two-way radio dealers are to sell RCA Tier 2 and Tier 3 radio equipment. Our on-boarding process is simple and easy, and we provide our dealers with demo kits at cost. We also offer our new dealers a one-time discount on their first order. In short, our new dealers are impressed at the quality and overall value RCA Communications Systems brings to their operation,” said Sergio Nuno, Sales Manager for RCA Communications Systems and Discount Two-Way Radio.

According to Nuno, another reason behind the rapid growth in RCA Communications Systems network can be attributed to the United States’ recent ban on US federal agencies buying equipment from two-way radio manufacturer Hytera. The ban officially went into effect on August 13, 2020. In addition, A federal court found that Hytera infringed on Motorola’s copyrighted trade secrets, triggering a prohibition on any company importing or selling Hytera two-way radios.

“The truth is that dealers are very uncomfortable selling Hytera right now, and since Vertex radios are being re-branded as Motorola, RCA is the logical choice for dealers who need affordable, durable equipment,” said Nuno.

Three New RCA Dealers Highlighted

Since announcing its expansion strategy, Discount Two-Way Radio and RCA Communications Systems have signed 45 experienced independent dealers to represent the RCA brand of two-way radios.

“Each dealer represents a specific region of the country and adds a new layer of strength to the overall network,” explained Nuno.
