Product ID: DM1600

The MOTOTRBO DM1600 mobile radio with an integrated alphanumeric screen is designed for clear voice and data status monitoring in vehicles and dispatch stations, offering 160 channels in analogue and digital (DMR) modes.
Product features:
DMR – digital standard with analog support and software upgrade path
Expanded capacity up to 160 communication channels
Dual Capacity Direct Mode and Transmit Interrupt function• Product description
Featuring a bright, high-contrast alphanumeric screen, the MOTOTRBO DM1600 allows drivers to view essential operational information at a glance, such as caller ID, channel name, and device status. This keeps mobile workforces well-informed and connected without creating dangerous distractions behind the wheel.
Thoughtful ergonomics paired with programmable buttons enable one-touch access to critical functions or emergency help. Digital speech technology combined with background noise cancellation filters out engine and road noise, delivering crisp audio clarity. The Transmit Interrupt feature ensures dispatchers can clear a channel immediately to convey urgent priority messages.
The radio’s rugged enclosure meets IP54 dust and splash resistance as well as MIL-STD 810 environmental standards. Its durability is proven through Motorola's Accelerated Life Test program, simulating 5 years of demanding service. Available in analogue/digital models or analogue-only versions with simple software upgrade paths, the DM1600 provides a flexible bridge to digital technology while operating seamlessly with existing fleets.
The MOTOTRBO DM1400 is designed for transport companies, logistics and delivery providers, passenger transport fleets, and municipal utility services.
Passenger & bus transit: clear caller ID visibility and efficient management across complex routes.
Logistics & distribution: expanded channel capacity to coordinate multiple operational zones.
Utilities & field service: robust vehicular communications for field maintenance and service teams.
