Hytera HR652 Compact Digital DMR Repeater
Ultra-compact powerhouse for flexible range extension across facilities, campuses, and portable deployments.
The Hytera HR652 is a next-generation compact DMR repeater designed to provide consistent, reliable, and seamless voice and data communications. Weighing just 4 pounds, 6 ounces, this ultra-lightweight unit delivers unprecedented performance in a small form factor, making it ideal for installations with limited wall space or for rapid-response portable applications. Fully compliant with the DMR standard, the Hytera HR652 utilizes TDMA technology to provide two simultaneous voice channels, effectively doubling your communication capacity on a single frequency.
Built for versatility, the Hytera HR652 features an advanced heat sink design with an integrated fan for a 100% continuous duty cycle at 25W. Whether deployed as a fixed indoor installation or as a mobile repeater powered by an optional battery or vehicle source, the HR652 ensures your team stays connected across a campus or throughout a high-rise building. With industry-leading receiver sensitivity and rugged MIL-STD-810H construction, it is the professional choice for smooth analog-to-digital migration and reliable mission-critical coverage.
Please note that programming the HR652 requires Hytera Customer Programming Software (CPS) and a compatible programming cable, both of which are sold separately.

What is the difference between the HR652 and a traditional rack-mount repeater?
Traditional repeaters are large, rack-mounted units designed for permanent fixed installations. The HR652 is purpose-built to be ultra-compact and portable — it can be wall-mounted, carried in a backpack, or even mounted to a drone for temporary coverage, while still delivering full 25W DMR performance.
Can multiple HR652 units be linked together?
Yes. The HR652 supports IP Site Connect, which allows multiple units to be linked via an Ethernet/IP network to extend coverage across large campuses, multiple buildings, or remote sites without requiring additional licensing infrastructure.
