Motorola XPR7350e MOTOTRBO Professional Digital Portable Radio (VHF 136–174 MHz)
The XPR7350e VHF is a professional-tier MOTOTRBO portable radio for demanding outdoor operations - utilities field crews, public works, and outdoor industrial sites. It's the right tool for environments where VHF at 136–174 MHz propagates effectively across open terrain and IP68 waterproofing handles real field conditions.
The radio runs 5W with 32 channels and integrated GPS. The XPR7350e delivers up to 29 hours of runtime on the high-capacity battery — enough to cover outdoor crews across multiple shifts without infrastructure compromise.
Why Professionals Choose the Motorola XPR7350e (VHF)
The XPR7350e VHF is built for outdoor professionals who need full enterprise-tier radio specification without a display or keypad. Field technicians covering large service territories, utility crews working across substations and transmission corridors, outdoor event operations managing large venues, and public safety personnel on open terrain deployments: all need a radio that delivers GPS tracking, IP68 protection, and system-level connectivity without adding complexity to a worker's toolkit. At 5W VHF — one watt above the UHF variant — it delivers maximum outdoor propagation range across 136–174 MHz.
With 29 hours on the 3000mAh high-capacity battery (20 hours on the slim 2100mAh), the XPR7350e VHF covers the extended deployments that outdoor operations demand. GPS with cold-start under 60 seconds and horizontal accuracy under 5 meters enables real-time fleet tracking for dispatch visibility across large outdoor coverage areas. Wi-Fi over-the-air updates push to field radios when workers return to a facility, eliminating the logistics of manual fleet reprogramming for geographically dispersed outdoor teams.
Confirmed as a standard feature in the official Motorola XPR 7000e Series datasheet (motorolasolutions.com, February 2021), SINC+ Noise Cancellation processes incoming transmissions in real time to filter background noise before it reaches the speaker. For outdoor VHF operations — utility crews working near transformer stations and generators, construction teams in active work zones, outdoor event staff in crowd noise - SINC+ maintains voice intelligibility under conditions where standard digital noise reduction is insufficient. The feature is active in all operating modes without configuration.

FCC Licensing and Compliance Support
Operation of the Motorola XPR7350e VHF on licensed frequencies in the United States requires an FCC Part 90 license. This applies to commercial and industrial radio use across utility companies, public works, construction operations, outdoor facilities management, and public safety organizations on private licensed VHF frequencies in the 136–174 MHz band.
As an authorized Motorola dealer, AXDIGITAL assists customers throughout the licensing process — from selecting VHF frequencies for your site and existing infrastructure to preparing and submitting the FCC Part 90 application. VHF is the standard band for outdoor open-area operations with large coverage footprints. For organizations deploying Capacity Plus or IP Site Connect across multiple outdoor sites, we provide frequency coordination to prevent inter-site interference.
The XPR7350e VHF is FCC Part 90 certified (FCC ID: AZ489FT7066) and complies with DMR digital modulation standards (ETSI TS 102 361).

FAQ
What is the outdoor range of the XPR7350e VHF?
At 5W VHF across 136–174 MHz, the XPR7350e covers 3–5 miles in open terrain under typical conditions. The official Motorola datasheet confirms the improved receiver extends range by up to 8% over the previous XPR generation. For multi-site
utility or public works operations, IP Site Connect links geographically dispersed sites over internet connections. Contact our team for a site-specific coverage assessment before ordering.
How does the integrated GPS work for outdoor fleet tracking?
The GPS receiver achieves cold-start acquisition in under 60 seconds and horizontal accuracy under 5 meters, confirmed in the official Motorola datasheet. When connected to a MOTOTRBO dispatching system such as Capacity Max or third-party fleet management software, the XPR7350e transmits location updates at configurable intervals or triggered by events. For outdoor operations covering large territories, real-time location visibility allows dispatch to route the nearest available worker to a job or incident.
What is the difference between the VHF Enabled and VHF Capable models?
The Enabled model (AAH56JDC9RA1AN) has all digital system features — including Capacity Max and Connect Plus — active out of the box. The Capable model (AAH56JDC9WA1AN) operates in conventional analog and digital modes immediately but requires a software key to access advanced trunking and system features. For organizations running conventional VHF systems, the Capable model provides full functionality at lower initial cost. Contact us to confirm which model aligns with your current infrastructure and growth plan.
