UHF Stubby Antenna for MOTOTRBO Public Safety Microphones (403–433 MHz) – FM Approved

The Motorola PMAE4046A is a genuine UHF stubby antenna designed specifically for compatible MOTOTRBO Public Safety Microphones operating between 403 and 433 MHz. Unlike a standard portable-radio antenna, this model installs directly onto an antenna-capable public safety remote speaker microphone.

The microphone-mounted design allows compatible public safety microphones to transmit and receive radio signals while the portable radio remains securely attached to the user’s belt or equipment. Its compact 3.5-inch profile helps minimize interference with uniforms, jackets and protective equipment.

The PMAE4046A is approved for use with select FM intrinsically safe Motorola configurations. Intrinsic-safety approval applies only when the antenna, microphone, radio, battery and other connected components are approved for use together.

Important Installation Information

The PMAE4046A attaches to the antenna connector located on a compatible MOTOTRBO Public Safety Microphone. It should not be purchased as a standard replacement antenna for direct installation onto a portable radio.

Confirm that your Public Safety Microphone is one of the supported antenna-capable models before ordering.

Important Frequency Information

The PMAE4046A is designed specifically for UHF radio systems operating within the 403–433 MHz frequency range. Using an antenna outside the radio’s programmed frequency range may reduce communication performance.

FM Intrinsic-Safety Information

This antenna may be used with select FM-approved Motorola Public Safety Microphones and portable radios. The antenna itself does not make a standard radio or microphone intrinsically safe.

To maintain FM intrinsic-safety certification, every component—including the radio, battery, microphone, antenna and connected accessories—must be approved for use together under the applicable certification standard.
