Easily convert to digital with the VXD-720 conventional portable radio, providing the essential voice and text communications needed. The VXD digital radio series
operates on the most widely-used Digital Mobile Radio (DMR) protocol, making
it compatible to work with other DMR models and brands. The VXD Series can
also be used with any existing analog two-way radios for an easy transition to new
equipment and maximum return on investment.

- Digital encode/decode
- MDC-1200® analog encode/decode
- 2-Tone Analog paging: call alert, call alert with voice and select call
- Basic privacy (digital mode only)
- Voice activated transmit (VOX)
- Contact list for up to 1,000 records

The VXD-720 can operate in both analog and digital mode providing an easy path
to digital when ready. This flexibility enables conversion to digital one radio at
a time, one channel at a time or the entire system based on functional or fiscal
needs. Includes dual-mode analog and/or digital scan and mixed mode priority
scan to easily operate in digital and still scan and communicate with analog radio
users of any brand.
All Vertex Standard VXD radios use Time-Division Multiple-Access (TDMA)
6.25 kHz efficient digital technology that doubles the capacity for the price of one
frequency license. The radios support twice as many talk groups or calls without
adding more licensing costs.
Experience enhanced voice clarity and reduced noise over a greater range versus
analog for consistently crisp, clear communications.
Achieve greater cost savings with increased battery life performance. The VXD-720
can operate up to 40 percent longer than most analog radios because TDMA cuts
the transmit time in half -- reducing overall battery consumption per call.
Digital Delivers Integrated Voice and Text for Efficiency
Includes text messaging in digital mode to communicate between radios. Send
either free-form or pre-set text messages.
The VXD-720 radio meets international standard IP57 for dust and water
protection where water does not harm the radio when submersed to a depth of
3 feet for up to 30 minutes.
Meets the FCC Part 90 requirement for using 12.5 kHz channels by January 1,
2013. VXD radios enable users to keep existing 12.5 kHz channels and double the
call capacity with the two-slot TDMA technology. Using digital meets the FCC
recommendation to convert directly to 6.25 kHz efficient equipment for greater
spectrum efficiency
