Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What is the difference between the Hytera BD502i and the BD552i? The primary difference is the physical interface and capacity. The BD502i is a screenless radio that supports 48 channels. The BD552i features a single-line OLED display, partial keypad navigation, and an expanded 256-channel capacity, making it better suited for supervisors or larger organizations.
Does this radio come with Bluetooth? Bluetooth is an optional feature for the BD552i. If you require wireless connectivity for Bluetooth earpieces, please ensure you select the "UHF - Bluetooth" or "VHF - Bluetooth" option from the drop-down menu before adding the radio to your cart.
Is the Hytera BD552i waterproof? The BD552i has an IP54 rating. This means it is highly protected against dust and can easily withstand splashing water from any direction. It is perfect for outdoor use in light rain, but it is not designed to be fully submerged underwater.
Does the Hytera BD552i require an FCC license? Yes. Because this is a high-powered professional two-way radio (4 Watts UHF / 5 Watts VHF), it requires an FCC business radio license to operate legally in the United States.
