Compact IP67 digital and analog UHF handheld radio for professional fleets — available in black or high-visibility yellow.
The Motorola EVX-S30 is an ultra-compact digital and analog portable two-way radio operating on the UHF band (403–480 MHz). It delivers up to 3 watts of digital RF output power and supports 256 channels across 16 groups, giving fleet coordinators the capacity to structure distinct work groups and minimize cross-talk across large facilities. The IP67-rated housing is completely dust-tight and water-submersible to 1 meter for 30 minutes. Available in professional black or high-visibility yellow, the EVX-S30 integrates with existing analog radio systems out of the box and includes built-in Lone Worker and Emergency Alert safety protocols.
