Description
High-Performance Color Display MOTOTRBO Mobile Radios
Advanced digital mobile transceivers featuring 1000-channel capacity, 4-line color display, integrated Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth 4.0.
The Motorola XPR5550e and Motorola XPR5580e are high-performance MOTOTRBO digital mobile two-way radios built to deliver complete organization-wide connectivity for commercial vehicle fleets, school buses, field service technicians, and municipal utility crews. Operating on DMR Association digital standards while maintaining full backward compatibility with legacy analog systems, these mobile transceivers feature a vibrant 4-line full-color display with day/night mode, integrated Bluetooth 4.0, over-the-air Wi-Fi software updates, and IMPRES smart audio processing.
Engineered for demanding vehicle environments, the Motorola XPR5550e covers standard commercial VHF and UHF frequency bands, while the Motorola XPR5580e is specialized for 800/900 MHz trunked and conventional radio networks. Both models provide 1000 channels, 4 programmable front-panel buttons with a 4-way navigation disk, integrated GPS/GLONASS location tracking, and an IP54 weather-sealed chassis built to withstand vehicle vibration, temperature shock, and road dust. To ensure legal vehicle operation on licensed commercial frequencies, fleet operators must maintain valid FCC Licensing credentials for all installed mobile transmitters.
