Overview

The NX-5700, NX-5800 and NX-5900 bring the NX-5000 series’ multi-protocol capability to vehicles and base stations. They run P25, NXDN and DMR digital plus FM analog, so patrol cars, fire apparatus and utility trucks can work on the systems they need. Install the radio in the dash with its own front panel, or mount the radio out of the way and add one or two remote control heads. Multiple radios on different bands can even be run from one head.
