Dual Capacity Direct Mode
Use the 2-slot TDMA DMR standard to double the capacity of your 12.5 kHz channel, without the need for a repeater.
IP54 & Radio Management
Dustproof and splashproof to IP54 for challenging environments, and compatible with the Radio Management Suite for fast, error-free batch programming to a standardized template.
