Product Information
Motorola CLP1080e Two-Way Radio
At just 3.35 oz, the Motorola CLP1080e packs serious communication power into one of the most compact business radios on the market. Built for restaurants, retail floors, hotels, medical offices, and event venues, this radio keeps your team connected—quietly, reliably, and without the bulk.
Coverage That Works Where You Do
The CLP1080e operates at 1 watt on UHF (450–470 MHz), delivering dependable coverage across up to 100,000 square feet indoors—that's 10 floors—or up to 1 mile outdoors. For most light-duty business environments, that's all the range you need to keep operations running without a hitch.
8 Channels for Organized Team Communication
With 8 programmable channels, your team can segment conversations by department, role, or priority. Front-of-house on channel one. Back-of-house on channel two. A private side channel for sensitive discussions. No cluttered airwaves, no missed messages—just clean, efficient communication across your entire operation.
Discreet by Design
There's no external speaker on the CLP1080e. All audio is routed through the included earpiece, keeping every conversation private and professional. For medical offices with HIPAA compliance requirements, or hospitality teams focused on a seamless guest experience, that level of discretion isn't just a nice-to-have—it's essential.
18-Hour Battery Life
The CLP1080e keeps pace with your longest shifts. Its 18-hour battery life means your team stays connected from open to close, without scrambling for a charger mid-service. Need even more runtime? The optional High-Capacity Battery (HKNN4013) extends life even further.
Simple to Use—No Training Required
No display? No problem. Voice-guided navigation walks users through channel selection and settings, so any team member can pick up the radio and get communicating immediately. The large, centrally located push-to-talk (PTT) button makes contact instant, and VOX hands-free functionality means staff can stay focused on the task at hand.
Built to Last
Don't let the slim profile fool you. The CLP1080e is IP54-rated and Military Standard 810H certified—built to handle drops, dust, water splashes, and the wear of daily use. Its antimicrobial polycarbonate housing makes it a smart fit for hygiene-sensitive environments like dental offices and medical clinics. Backed by a 2-year warranty, this radio is a long-term investment in your team's reliability.

Ensure tables are bussed faster as wait staff quickly informs bus personnel of the next table in line for cleanup.
Hotels: Make sure traffic through your hotel lobby flows smoothly and efficiently. Bell staff on tap via their CLPe series radios knows who's ready to go upstairs and when.

Motorola CLPe two-way radios provide seamless communication between your cashiers, your product floor and the shelves in the back. You save time and money when you save steps.

You'll present a professional image that gets you recommended on social networks as the group who made everything run smoothly. Guest requests are handled with the ease of Motorola's Push-to-talk button.
Car Dealerships: Social mores make people shy away from loud talk about big money. It just squicks people out. Discretion is a big plus when negotiations are going down and people are discussing their finances with strangers.

Your whole team stays connected and customers see they can trust their sales rep when they get answers readily.
Dental Offices: Seamless integration between front office staff, hygienists, dental assistants and doctors reassures the nervous dental office patient.
