12 Sep 25. Motorola Solutions welcomes CRFS Limited and CRFS, Inc. Motorola Solutions (NYSE: MSI) is pleased to welcome CRFS Limited and CRFS, Inc. (together, CRFS), a global leader in radio frequency (RF) intelligence technology, as part of its acquisition of Silvus Technologies. CRFS’ innovative solutions empower defense agencies and intelligence communities to detect and geolocate RF signals in congested and contested environments; technology that strongly complements Motorola Solutions’ global leadership in mission-critical communications.
The acquisition comes at a time when demand for RF intelligence is accelerating across global defense operations, where superiority in the electromagnetic spectrum and the ability to rapidly geolocate signals of interest are decisive factors for mission success. CRFS’ advanced RF technology is engineered for the toughest environments and provides vital intelligence that is processed at the edge to enable rapid situational awareness and accelerate decision making.
“Motorola Solutions understands the imperative for the front line to have accurate intelligence that informs decisions at the speed of the mission,” said Jack Molloy, executive vice president and COO, Motorola Solutions. “CRFS’ advanced electromagnetic sensing and software-defined capabilities are a powerful complement to our own, and together, we plan to build even more powerful solutions that can deliver actionable RF intelligence to military and national security customers worldwide.”
“CRFS was founded to develop the best possible deployable systems for RF detection and geolocation, and we believe if it emits or transmits, we can find it,” said Nick Balon of CRFS. “We are excited to join Motorola Solutions. We share the same dedication to designing extraordinary communications technologies that can empower defense agencies and help protect national security. It’s a powerful mission that drives and inspires us all, and I look forward to our future together.”
