The XT400 Series radios are rugged devices making everyday job more efficient.
Both models are XTNi-compatible in terms of channel frequencies and codes (possibility to clone settings using a special cable or a multi-unit charger).
The new series is robust and resistant to unfavourable conditions and harsh intense use – the chassis uses metal die-casting technology, and the radios meet the requirements of the US Military Standard 810 and IP55 rating. Motorola has subjected the radios to a strenuous accelerated life test, simulating up to five years of field use (constant rain and wind for 30 minutes on all surfaces of the device, up to 9 hours of vibrations simulating carrying or transport, 48 hours of exposure to salt spray, blowing dust on all surfaces for 6 hours, 18 shock with a minimal strength of 40 g each). The housing is covered with antimicrobial coating, preventing the growth of mould and germs on the radio's surface. The radios allow for channel aliases, i.e. assigning user-defined names to channels (in XT460). Non-display radios use channel announcements for confirmation (channel announcements notify the user of the currently selected channel; there are 16 pre-recorded channel names available, corresponding to specific departments, such as customer services, security, etc.) – you don't have to check the settings or remove the radio from the belt or holster. Transmission can be voice-activated (VOX feature), even without additional audio accessories – useful e.g. in installation companies. The XT420 and XT460 deliver high-quality audio, with a built-in powerful 1500 mW loudspeaker, ensuring the conversations can be heard even at a construction site over operating machinery. The range is up to 9 kilometres in line of sight (subject to terrain and conditions). The radios have a battery life of up to 20 hours (in battery saving mode and 5/5/90 duty cycle) with standard LiIon battery with a capacity of 2150 mAh. Audio accessories are XTNi/XTNiD-compatible, allowing for efficient use of communications resources in the organisation.
