VHF 136–174 MHz

The AAH88JCC9JA2AN operates across:

136–174 MHz VHF

This VHF frequency coverage makes the SL300 suitable for properly licensed commercial communications systems operating within its supported frequency range.

VHF communications are commonly used for applications such as:

• Transportation

• Construction

• Agriculture

• Education

• Schools and campuses

• Property management

• Security

• Event operations

• Facility management

• Outdoor operations

• Maintenance

• Professional services

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

Analog & MOTOTRBO Digital

The AAH88JCC9JA2AN supports:

Analog + MOTOTRBO DMR Digital

Organizations can continue using compatible existing analog channels while introducing MOTOTRBO digital communications as operational requirements change.

This makes the SL300 a practical option for businesses migrating from analog to digital without requiring an immediate replacement of their entire compatible radio fleet.

RF Output Power

The SL300 provides:

Up to 2 Watts – Analog

Up to 3 Watts – Digital

Motorola combines the radio's compact design with Range Max technology to provide dependable communication performance while maintaining an exceptionally slim form factor.

2-Channel Capacity

The AAH88JCC9JA2AN supports:

2 Channels

The simple two-channel configuration is ideal for businesses and organizations that only require one or two primary communication groups.

Users can quickly move between the programmed channels using the radio's channel control.

For organizations requiring substantially more channels, Motorola also offers the 99-channel Active View Display version of the SL300.

Non-Display Design

This configuration of the SL300 is a:

Non-Display Model

Rather than using a visual display, the radio relies on straightforward controls, LED indicators, and audible voice announcements.

The simplified interface is particularly useful for employees who primarily need basic push-to-talk communications and do not require extensive channel navigation or visual radio information.

Voice Announcement

The SL300 supports:

Voice Announcement

Audible prompts can confirm radio operations and channel information, allowing users to operate the radio without needing a display.

This feature is particularly useful on the AAH88JCC9JA2AN because of its streamlined non-display design.

Ultra-Slim Design

One of the defining characteristics of the SL300 is its extremely thin profile.

The radio measures approximately:

4.95 × 2.17 × 0.87 inches

At only 0.87 inches thick, the SL300 can be carried comfortably throughout the workday without the bulk associated with many conventional commercial portable radios.

The VHF configuration weighs approximately:

5.96 oz (168.9 g) with battery

Its slim profile, curved edges, compact antenna, and lightweight construction make it particularly useful for users who need a professional radio that remains unobtrusive.

Range Max Technology

Motorola equips the SL300 with:

Range Max Technology

This combines an advanced receiver design with Motorola's patented antenna technology to enhance communication performance while allowing the radio to maintain its compact profile.

Motorola designed the 3-watt digital SL300 with Range Max technology to provide communication performance comparable to many conventional 4-watt digital radios.

Battery Performance

With the standard lithium-ion battery, Motorola specifies typical battery life for the VHF non-display configuration of approximately:

12.5 Hours – Analog

15 Hours – Digital

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

Micro-USB Connectivity

The SL300 features:

Micro-USB Connectivity

This supports convenient charging and compatible programming applications.

The Micro-USB design helps reduce the need for larger proprietary connections while maintaining straightforward access for charging and radio configuration.

Dual Capacity Direct Mode

The SL300 supports:

Dual Capacity Direct Mode

This MOTOTRBO feature uses the two-slot TDMA architecture of DMR to provide two communication paths on a single 12.5 kHz frequency without requiring a repeater.

Availability depends on radio programming and system configuration.

Rugged Construction

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

The radio carries an:

IP54 Rating

providing protection against limited dust ingress and splashing water.

It is also designed to meet applicable:

MIL-STD-810 C, D, E, F and G

environmental testing standards.

Included Accessories

Standard package configurations for the AAH88JCC9JA2AN include:

• PMNN4468 – Li-Ion Battery

• PMAD4146 – VHF Stubby Antenna

• PMLN7190 – Swivel Carry Holster

• 25009298001 – Micro-USB Wall Charger

Package contents should always be verified at the time of purchase.

VHF Non-Display vs. Display SL300

Motorola offers two primary VHF SL300 configurations:

AAH88JCC9JA2AN = VHF / 2 Channels / Non-Display

AAH88JCP9JA2AN = VHF / 99 Channels / Active View Display

Both operate across the 136–174 MHz VHF frequency range and support analog and MOTOTRBO DMR digital communications.

The primary differences are channel capacity and user interface.

The AAH88JCC9JA2AN is ideal for organizations that only need one or two channels and want the simplest possible radio interface.

The AAH88JCP9JA2AN is better suited for users who require more channels and visual channel/status information.

VHF vs. UHF Non-Display Models

The SL300 non-display configuration is available in both VHF and UHF:

AAH88JCC9JA2AN = VHF 136–174 MHz / 2 Channels

AAH88QCC9JA2AN = UHF 403–470 MHz / 2 Channels

Customers should select the frequency band that matches their existing radio system and authorized frequencies.

Important

The AAH88JCC9JA2AN is the:

VHF 136–174 MHz / 2-Channel / Non-Display SL300

It should not be confused with:

AAH88JCP9JA2AN – VHF 99-Channel Active View Display SL300

or:

AAH88QCC9JA2AN – UHF 2-Channel Non-Display SL300

Radio programming is required before operation.

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

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