Motorola APX 8000XE
APX P25 Multiband Portable Radio (Intrinsically Safe)
The Motorola APX 8000XE is the industry's first quad-band portable P25 radio with intrinsically safe certification, delivering unmatched interoperability across VHF, UHF1, UHF2, and 700/800 MHz bands in a single device. With P25 Phase 2 TDMA technology, IP68 waterproof rating, ATEX/IECEx certification for hazardous locations, and advanced AES-256 encryption, the APX 8000XE provides mission-critical communications for oil & gas, chemical processing, mining, and other hazardous environment operations. The distinctive lime green housing ensures high visibility in low-light conditions.
Key Features
Quad-Band Interoperability
One radio covers four frequency bands: VHF (136-174 MHz), UHF1 (300-400 MHz), UHF2 (400-520 MHz), and 700/800 MHz (764-870 MHz). Eliminates need to carry multiple radios for cross-band operations in hazardous locations. Flexible all-band antenna optimizes performance across all frequencies.
P25 Phase 2 TDMA
Dual-slot TDMA technology doubles voice capacity within 12.5 kHz bandwidth. Backward compatible with P25 Phase 1 FDMA and analog systems. Provides clear digital audio with extended battery life compared to analog operation.
Intrinsically Safe Certified
ATEX Zone 0/1/2 and IECEx certified for use in explosive atmospheres. UL/cUL HazLoc certified for Class I, II, III Division 1 environments. Safe for oil & gas refineries, chemical plants, grain handling, and mining operations where flammable gases, vapors, or dust are present.
IP68 Waterproof Rating
Submersible to 2 meters underwater for up to 2 hours. Exceeds IP67 standards for water immersion. Fully sealed construction protects against dust, sand, and harsh environmental conditions. Ideal for marine, firefighting, and extreme weather operations.
Mission-Critical Security
Hardware-based 256-bit AES encryption with FIPS 140-2 Level 3 certification. Optional DES, DES-XL, DES-OFB algorithms. Secure key storage with tamper detection. Over-the-Air Rekeying (OTAR) capability for remote key management.
High-Visibility Design
Distinctive lime green housing ensures maximum visibility in low-light, smoke-filled, or emergency conditions. Ergonomic design with large buttons for easy operation with gloves. Integrated GPS/GLONASS for accurate personnel tracking and location awareness.
