VX-4100/4200 Series

Memory for Enhanced Group Communications
For group communications, get the radio that best serves your needs with 501 programmable channels in the VX-4200E Series. In addition to 501 channels, the VX-4200E keeps operations easy with Direct Channel Access. For smaller operations, consider the 8-channel VX-4100E Series option.

Prevent Unauthorised Use
If lost or stolen, the VX-4100E/4200E Series has built-in 5/6-tone features that allow for over-the-air kill and revive to prevent misuse of missing radios.

When Safety Counts
As with all Vertex Standard mobile radios, the VX-4100E/4200E Series comes standard with built-in Emergency alert for enhanced driver safety. A panic button can be triggered by the front panel button or remotely to alert the dispatcher when problems arise.

Exclusive Auto-Range Transpond System – ARTS™
Only Vertex Standard radios are designed to inform you when you and another ARTS™-equipped station are within communication range. If out of range for more than 2 minutes, your radio senses no signal has been received and beeps to alert you. The base station can then alert the field unit to move back in range. A great solution to keep your workers co-ordinated.
