Motorola XPR 3500e Two-Way Radio: Display & Keypad MOTOTRBO Power
The Motorola XPR 3500e gives growing teams the reach and clarity of a full MOTOTRBO digital radio in a rugged, easy-to-carry package. With a monochrome display, a limited keypad, and 128 channels, it's built for warehouses, manufacturing, security, and field crews that need dependable push-to-talk today — and the flexibility to scale from analog to digital as they grow.
Heard Clearly, Even on the Loudest Floor
The XPR 3500e uses Motorola's Intelligent Audio and noise-cancelling technology to automatically adjust to your surroundings and strip out background roar, so every call comes through clean — from a quiet back office to the busiest loading dock.
- Built to Take a Beating: Rated IP67 (dust-tight and submersible) and tested to MIL-SPEC 810 D/E for shock, vibration, and water.
- All-Shift Battery: Up to 28.5 hours of digital runtime on the 3000 mAh battery — your crew works a full shift, plus overtime, without a dead radio.
- 128 Channels + Channel Lock: Organize every team and site, then lock the channel knob to stop accidental switching mid-job.
- Analog & Digital: Run alongside your current analog fleet now and migrate to MOTOTRBO digital on your own schedule.
Connected and Future-Ready
