Motorola PMHN4429A Side Connector Dust Cover for MOTOTRBO R7
Genuine OEM mini-GCAI port protector for MOTOTRBO R7, Ion, MXP600, and APX Next-generation portables.
The Motorola PMHN4429A is a genuine OEM side connector dust cover designed to protect the mini-GCAI accessory port on MOTOTRBO R7, Ion, MXP600, and APX Next-generation portable radios. When audio accessories such as remote speaker microphones or surveillance earpieces are disconnected, the exposed port is vulnerable to dust, moisture, and debris. The PMHN4429A snaps directly into the side recess of the radio housing — no tools required — keeping contacts clean and corrosion-free between accessory swaps. The PMHN4429A is the updated version of the Motorola PMHN4429.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is a screw or tool required to install this cover?
No. The PMHN4429A uses integrated friction-locking tabs that snap directly into the side recess of the radio housing. It holds firmly in place during daily field use without any fasteners.
Will this cover fit older MOTOTRBO or APX radios?
No. This dust cover is custom-molded for the mini-GCAI connector format used on next-generation portables. It will not fit the wider multi-pin accessory ports found on legacy MOTOTRBO or APX radios.
Does this come as a single unit or a multi-pack?
