Product Information
Motorola DTR700 Digital Two-Way Radio
The Motorola DTR700 is built for teams that can't afford to miss a beat. Crystal-clear digital audio, wide-area coverage, and zero licensing fees make it one of the most practical communication tools for businesses operating across large facilities.
License-Free Operation on 900 MHz
No FCC license. No paperwork. No annual fees. The DTR700 runs on the 900 MHz band, which means you're free to deploy it right out of the box. For businesses managing tight budgets, that's one less recurring cost to worry about.
Coverage That Goes the Distance
The DTR700 covers up to 350,000 sq. ft. or 30 floors indoors—enough to keep your team connected across a large warehouse, multi-story hospital, or sprawling campus. Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) technology ensures your communications stay private and interference-free, even in signal-dense environments.
Digital Audio You Can Actually Hear
Static-free and clear right up to the edge of coverage. Whether your team is coordinating across a noisy construction site or a busy kitchen, the DTR700's digital audio cuts through the chaos. No garbled messages. No repeated transmissions.
Built Tough Enough for the Job
The DTR700 meets MIL-SPEC 810G standards and carries an IP54 rating, meaning it holds up against dust, shock, vibration, and moisture. It's designed for medium-to-heavy duty use—so it can take the bumps and drops that come with a real workday.
Flexible Calling Options
Different teams communicate differently. The DTR700 accommodates that with multiple call modes:
- Direct Call – Reach one person instantly, one-to-one
- Call All Available – Broadcast to every radio not currently on a call
- Page All Available – Send a one-way announcement to the whole team
- Private Reply – Follow up a group call with a private one-to-one conversation
Need to send a quick message without speaking? Use Quick Text to send up to 10 pre-programmed short messages at the press of a button.
All-Day Battery Life
With up to 16.5 hours of battery life, the DTR700 keeps pace with even the longest shifts. For operations running extended hours, high-capacity batteries and rapid chargers are available as accessories.
50 Channels, 200 Contacts
With 50 programmable channels and storage for up to 200 contacts, the DTR700 scales easily with your team. Set up dedicated channels for different departments, configure a scan list to monitor multiple groups, or clone contact lists over the air—no cables required.
