Rugged and Cost-Effective UHF and VHF DMR Two-Way Radios

The BD612i digital radios are the next generation of the TC6 analog radios, and improves on the legendary Hytera ruggedness, performance, and value.

  • Built rugged for the most demanding environments
  • Digital audio quality for clear calls on noisy job sites
  • Powerful battery for reliable operation over long shifts
  • Extended range to improve efficiency and reduce infrastructure costs

Improved Digital Performance

The BD612i radios feature digital noise cancellation for improved audio quality, and long battery life for up to 16 hours of operation. Digital encoding and high output power provides excellent reception and extended range.

Light and Compact

Weighing less than 9 ounces, the light and compact design makes the BD612i easy to carry and operate.

Rugged and Reliable

The BD612i is built to the MIL STD-810-G standard for shock and temperature endurance, and complies with the IP66 standard for water and dust resistance.

Functions

ERGONOMIC AND EASY TO USE

Tactile buttons for no-look PTT and emergency calling, and simple operation with channel and power/volume knobs. LED Indicator shows transmit and receive status in green and red lights.

ANALOG OR DIGITAL OPERATION

The BD612i operates in analog or digital mode, and allows switching between the two modes for communication with analog radios. This enables simple and cost-effective migration path to digital systems.

HIGH QUALITY AUDIO

Audio equalizer adjusts low, mid, and high frequency gain provides the best audio performance in noisy job sites or quiet offices.

LONG-LIFE BATTERY

Powerful 1500mAh Lithium Ion battery delivers up to 16 hours of operation, and an optional 2000mAh Lithium Ion battery delivers up to 22 hours of operation.

RELIABLE AND DURABLE

Compliant with MIL-STD-810-G for impacts and vibration, and IP66 rated for water and dust resistance

SCANNING

Allows listening to communications on other channels

DMR

DMR signaling enables group call, private call, and all call transmitting with PTT ID. Supports DMR Tier II repeaters to extend coverage.

ANTI-INTERFERENCE

Digital encoding and error correcting reduces signal interference on the same frequency.

EMERGENCY CALLING

One-touch Emergency Alarms can be sent to other radios with the programmable button to improve worker safety and emergency response time.
