KENWOOD has spent more than 70 years perfecting sound, so NEXEDGE radios feature renowned KENWOOD audio and noise cancelling technology for crisp, clear voice quality under any circumstances. All KENWOOD radios are rugged, designed for extremes in temperature and daily use, meeting Mil-Spec 810 C, D, E, F and G and NEXEDGE portables also meet the IP (International Protection) IP67 standard for dust and water immersion. KENWOOD portables are ideal for long shifts and constant use, with an ergonomically designed case that makes them easy to hold and up to 13.5 hours talk-time with the 2,000 mAH battery. The IS (Intrinsically safe) models are an option for hazardous work environments with flammable materials.
NEXEDGE is built on the NXDN® standard, developed by JVCKENWOOD and Icom. It is an internationally recognized standard and was originally designed to offer very narrowbanding capability at 6.25 kHz prior to an FCC mandate for universal 12.5 kHz operation, taking the technology one step beyond the mandate, which means these systems are ready for use well into the future. NXDN uses Frequency Division Multiple Access (FDMA), dividing the channel by frequency for greater efficiency in bandwidth use and a lower possibility of interference.
With two-way radio, you get the convenience of one button instant communications, faster than speed dial, plus you will be compliant with US Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations as well as most state laws for the use of mobile devices in a commercial vehicle. Don’t risk the possibility of getting fined by using cell phones.
