Enhanced two-way business radios

Issue 2 2022 Products & Solutions

Hytera has announced the launch of a new generation of two-way business radios, which will provide users with instant, enhanced communications enabling them to work more efficiently and productively. The AP5 range is fully analogue, while the BP5 range is both digital and analogue.

Each series is supplied in two models, the analogue AP515 and AP585 (with 1.77-inch display screen and keypad), and the digital and analogue BP515 and BP565 (with 1.77-inch display screen and keypad). The radios come with a 3W speaker for loud and clear audio aided by enhanced howling suppression and advanced noise cancelling features, so you can still communicate safely even in noisy environments.

The models are thinner (29.5 mm) and lighter (between 200 and 230 g) and provide an extended communication distance of 11%. They also offer fast charging via a charger or Type-C USB port – just 1,5 hours for the BP5 models, 1,8 hours for the AP585 and 3,15 hours for the AP515. The Vox feature allows you to speak without pressing and holding the PTT key, so your hands are free to carry out tasks.

The AP5 radios offer a package of features including voice broadcast to confirm the operation of a programmable button or to change the channel of non-display radios. The radios are robust as they are MIL-STD-810 G and IP54 certified (IP67 optional for the AP585) and can operate in temperatures ranging from -20° C to +60° C. One hour of charging provides eight hours of talk time, while the AP515 has an 18-hour battery life.

The AP5 and BP5 series radios are the perfect tool for coordinating business operations and enabling instant group communications, helping you to work more effectively, safely and productively. A wide range of accessories is available for both series.

The AP5 and BP5 series will be exhibited at Securex South Africa 2022.
