KENWOOD NXR-1700E DMR NXDN Convertible Digital Analog VHF Repeater

NXR-1700E

KENWOOD NXR-1700E is a VHF repeater designed to operate in the 136-174 MHz range. This repeater comes configured in analog mode from the factory, but can be converted to digital through licenses to operate in DMR or NEXEDGE (NXDN), giving it great flexibility in its use. ...

It is important to note that this equipment is only a repeater, meaning that it does not include the power supply or duplexer required for full operation. These components will need to be purchased separately to complete the installation.

The NXR-1700E is an excellent choice for those looking for a scalable solution that can start in analog and then be upgraded to digital as future needs arise.
KENWOOD NXR-1700E offers a variety of software options that expand its capabilities and make it more versatile for different communication needs. These licensing options allow you to turn the analog repeater into an advanced digital system, compatible with multiple protocols and configurations.

Software options:
DMR Conventional License: Allows you to enable DMR (Digital Mobile Radio) mode, providing clear and efficient digital communication for professional applications.

NXDN Conventional License: Activates NXDN mode, a digital radio protocol developed by Kenwood and Icom that improves coverage capacity and audio quality, ideal for large-scale radio networks.

Conventional IP Network License: Enables IP networking for multiple sites, allowing communication between repeaters over the IP network, both in analog and digital mode, extending coverage over wider geographic areas.

SIP Phone License for NXDN or DMR: Allows the integration of SIP phones with the radio system, enabling interoperability between telephone networks and NXDN or DMR radios, facilitating communication between telephone and radio users.

These software licenses allow you to customize the KENWOOD NXR-1700E for different work environments and improve its performance according to the user's communication needs.

Note: Does NOT include power supply and does NOT include duplexer
