Silvus' proprietary technology overcomes traditional network challenges and facilitates data communication in harsh environments, without the need for fixed infrastructure.
"Silvus' commitment to mission-critical communication infrastructure is crucial in an increasingly complex global landscape," said Erik Fagan, Partner and Head of Industrial Technology at TJC. "We are pleased to have collaborated closely with Silvus' management team since our investment in 2019, facilitating significant growth including expanding their workforce from 70 to over 350 employees, strategic acquisitions, and advancements in their waveform, software applications, and hardware form factors. These developments enable Silvus users to communicate effectively in the most challenging environments. We look forward to seeing Silvus continue to grow as part of the Motorola Solutions family."
