Motorola DTR550
The Motorola DTR550™ Digital On-Site Two-Way Radio represents a new and better way for small businesses to communicate, resulting in greater employee and business productivity.
What's New?
The Motorola DTR550 portable features Enhanced Communication Options such as:
- Digital One-to-One Calling
- Digital One-to-Many Calling: Public Group Call and Private Group Call
What's Better?
These portable Digital On-Site Two-Way Radios provide Enhanced Performance with:
- Greater Coverage* - Up to 350,000 square feet or 30 floors (with Long Whip Antenna)
- Longer Battery Life - Up to 14.5 hours per full charge
- Digital Audio Quality - Loud, clear audio everywhere you have coverage
*DTR550 coverage will vary based on terrain and conditions. All comparison claims made against CP100/XU2600 analog radio models. Optional high capacity battery will provide up to 19 hours per full charge.
Plus, unlike alternative technologies, there are no monthly fees with Motorola Digital On-Site Two-Way Radios. No service towers. No per minute charges.
The Digital Difference
Enhanced coverage, battery life, and audio quality aren't the only advantages of Motorola's new Digital On-Site Two-Way Radios. No license is required to operate Motorola's 900 MHz units. And for enhanced security, Motorola added Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) with 50 non-overlapping groups. Unlike analog radios, multiple group communications can occur simultaneously on the same channel with Motorola Digital On-Site Two-Way Radios.
In addition to these overall benefits, Motorola Digital On-Site Two-Way Radios allow you to take advantage of many leading-edge operational features that were never available previously.
Because the digital technology of the Motorola DTR550 portable enables each unit to have its own unique 11-digit identification, you get a new level of radio communication versatility with these calling options:
Digital One-to-One Calling
Call and talk privately with a specific user's radio. A private call recipient can receive an alert — either an audible or vibrating signal. And the recipient's unit displays the caller's ID.

Digital One-to-Many Calling
Public Group Call. All other Motorola DTR Series™ radios on the same group ID and channel hear communications, similar to an analog radio operation.

Private Group Call
Program your Motorola DTR Series radios to communicate with specific sets of group members. Caller ID displays group identification.

Call Forwarding to Other Radio IDs
Notify others that you're unavailable and allow them to speak to another contact for assistance with the Motorola DTR550.
Transmit ID
Motorola DTR Series receiving radios display the radio ID of the transmitting unit and, if listed in the receiving radio's contact list, the transmitting unit's radio name.
Short Message Service (SMS) Text Messaging
For added convenience, the Motorola DTR550 is capable of sending and receiving 15 preset messages and also allows for keyed-in custom messages to meet more specific needs.
Scroll List
The Motorola DTR550 can display frequently used group and private IDs for easiest access. You can view a recent-calls list, showing the source and target of the last 20 transmissions with the time and date information.
Exceptional Durability
Rest assured that the Motorola DTR550 Digital On-Site Two-Way Radio will hold up under demanding conditions. U.S. Military 810 C, D, E, and F Standards are used in the design process to simulate the very harshest environments, including:
- Blowing rain
