Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the digital Ion and an analog radio?
The Ion is a smart radio: it talks on DMR radio (digital and analog, UHF 400-527 MHz) and also uses LTE and Wi-Fi for data. It runs on the Android platform, with a touchscreen, camera and applications - something a conventional radio does not do.
What is the real range of the radio?
There is no single guaranteed distance. DMR range depends on environment, antenna, power and infrastructure; LTE and Wi-Fi depend on the networks and services available at the work sites.
In which band does the Ion operate and what is its range?
In radio mode, the Ion operates in UHF (400-527 MHz), with 4 W of power, up to 1,000 channels and 250 zones. Radio range depends on the environment, antenna and use of a repeater; LTE coverage depends on the carrier’s network.
What changes from the Ion to a common radio?
The Ion has an Android platform with a 102 mm touchscreen (480 × 800 px), 13 MP autofocus camera, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0 and LTE, in addition to DMR radio - bringing voice and data together in the same device.
Is the Ion approved by Anatel?
Every two-way radio used in Brazil must be approved by Anatel, and operating irregular equipment subjects the company to seizure and fines. ABC provides equipment within the rules and guides licensing.
What is the real battery life?
Duration depends on battery, transmit time, LTE/Wi-Fi usage, applications, and temperature. Motorola publishes standard 2820 mAh and HazLoc 2900 or 4400 mAh options; size the runtime for the actual profile, without assuming a universal duration.
Is there a version for hazardous areas (explosive atmosphere)?
Motorola documents HazLoc/TIA-4950 configuration with approved battery and for specific classes and groups. This does not authorize any Ion in any hazardous area. Confirm the complete set, the location classification, and the applicable certification in Brazil.
Does the Ion have a warranty?
Ion warranty terms are on request. Contact ABC Mais Telecom for current periods.
Is the Ion compatible with my current fleet?
Interoperability must be tested according to band, mode, channels, signaling, and enabled features. Compatible conventional DMR voice does not guarantee all proprietary features or any data integration.
Does the Ion run apps and have LTE?
The Ion runs the Android platform with an application ecosystem: access work apps, messaging, and dispatch, using LTE and Wi-Fi for data.
