Features

VERSATILE SOLUTION TO START AND GROW

The ability to operate in both digital and analogue modes also makes it easy and affordable to adapt your new digital radios to work along with your existing analogue radios. You can migrate to a digital two-way radio platform at your own pace.

The DP540 supports Direct Mode, Conventional (single-site repeater) and IP Site Connect* which means you can scale your operation up from small, radio-to-radio communications to multi-site repeater communications as the demands of your business change and grow.

CLEARER AUDIO, BETTER PERFORMANCE

When it comes to exceptional audio clarity, the quality of digital cannot be denied. The DP540 radios give you clear digital audio performance throughout your coverage area. The digital voice processing with enhanced call signalling ensures faster and more reliable calls.

INCREASED EFFICIENCY WITHOUT INCREASED COSTS

Powered by Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) technology and meeting ETSI’s Digital Mobile Radio (DMR) Tier II Standard, your DP540 radios provide twice the calling capacity of analogue for the price of one frequency license.

The DP540 features Dual Capacity Direct Mode which unlocks the full capacity of your digital radio system by doubling your channels without the cost of a repeater and its associated infrastructure. In order for both time slots of a 12.5kHz DMR channel to carry simultaneous and independent traffic, you usually need a repeater to provide the timing reference. With Dual Capacity Direct Mode, your radios are able to synchronize automatically and collaboratively, eliminating the requirement for a timing reference. Now you can use both time slots, thereby doubling capacity and increasing spectrum efficiency without the cost of a repeater and its associated infrastructure.

VERSATILE FOR MANY ENVIRONMENTS

No matter what environment you are using the radio in, you can connect more people effortlessly wherever they work.

Easy to carry and operate, hotel housekeepers can quickly update the supervisors from inside the guest rooms or on the hotel floors. Their DP540 radios deliver voice throughout the entire coverage area of your sprawling resort or high-rise hotel buildings.

With DP540 radios, your on-site crew can double their call capacity on the same radio spectrum, giving them more open lines for instant updates. If there is an emergency, you can communicate quickly and send the closest security employee to any part of the venue to speed up response time.

Your assembly line workers can rely on the clear digital audio of their DP540 radios and advanced Motorola Solutions technology to filter out background noise. Employees can hear clearly anywhere in the busy factory or use one of the programmable buttons to send pre-programmed text messages.
