Motorola MOTOTRBO SL300 UHF Portable Radio – AAH88QCP9JA2AN

The Motorola MOTOTRBO SL300 AAH88QCP9JA2AN UHF Portable Two-Way Radio combines professional analog and digital communications with an exceptionally slim, lightweight design ideal for users who need reliable communication without the bulk of a traditional portable radio.

Operating across the 403–470 MHz UHF frequency range, the SL300 supports both analog and MOTOTRBO DMR digital operation, making it an excellent choice for organizations transitioning from existing analog systems to digital communications.

This configuration features Motorola's innovative Active View Display, which uses a matrix of LED lights positioned behind the radio's protective housing. The display provides channel, volume, and radio information when needed while maintaining the SL300's clean, durable exterior.

With 99-channel capacity, Motorola Range Max technology, Dual Capacity Direct Mode, voice announcement, scanning capabilities, and a rugged IP54-rated housing, the SL300 provides professional communications performance in a compact radio measuring less than one inch thick.

UHF 403–470 MHz

The AAH88QCP9JA2AN operates across:

403–470 MHz UHF

This broad UHF frequency range makes the SL300 suitable for properly licensed commercial radio systems operating within its supported frequency range.

UHF communications are commonly used in environments such as:

• Hospitality

• Hotels and resorts

• Retail

• Education

• Property management

• Event operations

• Restaurants

• Warehouses

• Light manufacturing

• Security

• Facility management

• Professional services

Radio frequencies and system parameters must be properly programmed for the customer's authorized communications system.

Analog & MOTOTRBO Digital

The AAH88QCP9JA2AN supports:

Analog + MOTOTRBO DMR Digital

Organizations with existing analog radios can continue operating in analog mode while introducing MOTOTRBO digital communications as their system evolves.

Digital operation provides access to supported MOTOTRBO capabilities while offering improved spectrum efficiency and digital voice performance.

RF Output Power

The SL300 uses Motorola's Range Max technology to provide strong communications performance from its ultra-slim radio design.

Typical RF output is:

Analog: Up to 2 Watts

Digital: Up to 3 Watts

Motorola's Range Max design combines an advanced receiver and patented antenna technology to enhance communication range while maintaining the radio's compact profile.

99-Channel Capacity

This Active View Display version of the SL300 supports up to:

99 Channels

This provides considerably more flexibility than the non-display SL300 configuration, which supports only two channels.

The additional channel capacity makes the display model well suited for organizations with multiple departments, work groups, locations, or operational channels.

Active View Display

One of the SL300's most distinctive features is Motorola's:

Active View Display

Rather than using a conventional exposed LCD screen, the SL300 incorporates an LED matrix beneath the radio's protective housing.

The display illuminates when information is needed and can provide visual feedback for:

• Channel information

• Radio status

• Volume information

• Radio operation

Because the display is positioned behind the housing, there is no conventional exposed screen to easily scratch or crack.

Ultra-Slim Design

The SL300 measures approximately:

4.95 × 2.17 × 0.87 inches

At only 0.87 inches thick, the SL300 is significantly slimmer than many traditional commercial portable radios.

The UHF configuration weighs approximately:

5.84 oz (165.6 g) with battery

Its compact design makes it easy to carry on a belt, in a holster, or in other situations where a larger commercial radio may be cumbersome.

Battery Performance

The SL300 uses a 3.7V lithium-ion battery system.

Motorola specifies typical battery life for the UHF Active View Display configuration of approximately:

11.8 Hours – Analog

14 Hours – Digital

Actual operating time varies depending on transmit activity, radio configuration, battery condition, temperature, and other operating conditions.

Micro-USB Connectivity

The SL300 features convenient:

Micro-USB Connectivity

This connection supports efficient charging and compatible radio programming.

The Micro-USB design helps simplify charging compared with larger traditional portable-radio charging interfaces.

Dual Capacity Direct Mode

The SL300 supports:

Dual Capacity Direct Mode

Using the two-slot TDMA capabilities of the DMR standard, compatible radios can provide two communication paths on a single 12.5 kHz channel without requiring a repeater.

Availability depends on radio programming and system configuration.

Rugged Construction

Despite its slim profile, the SL300 is designed for professional everyday use.

The radio carries an:

IP54 Rating

providing protection against limited dust ingress and splashing water.

The SL300 is also designed to meet applicable MIL-STD-810 C, D, E, F and G environmental testing standards.

Display vs. Non-Display SL300

Motorola offers the SL300 in both display and non-display configurations.

This model:

AAH88QCP9JA2AN = UHF Active View Display / 99 Channels

The corresponding UHF non-display configuration is:

AAH88QCC9JA2AN = UHF Non-Display / 2 Channels

Customers requiring more channels and visual channel/status information should select the Active View Display model.

Important

The AAH88QCP9JA2AN is the:

UHF 403–470 MHz / Active View Display / 99-Channel SL300

The radio supports both analog and MOTOTRBO DMR digital communications.

Radio programming is required before operation.

Operating frequencies and system parameters must be properly configured for the customer's radio system.

FCC licensing may be required depending on the frequencies and application in which the radio is used.
