POWER OUTPUT: 120 W (LOW BAND), 110 W (VHF), 100 W (UHF)
The VX-6000’s construction includes a massive, die-cast
outer case which doubles as the heatsink. And the Automatic
Power Control (APC) circuit ensures stable power output
over a very wide range of ambient temperatures.
12.5/25 kHz BANDWIDTH PROGRAMMABLE PER CHANNEL
The VX-6000 may be programmed with Wide or Narrow operating
bandwidths, channel by channel, to conform to your local channel
environment. Ideal for multi-jurisdiction operations.
WIDE-BAND COVERAGE
Coverage beyond typical frequency limits allows programming
in "guard band" channel allocations, and ensures compatibility
for programming in a wide variety of locations.
OTHER FEATURES:
•TALK AROUND •BCLO, BTLO, AND TOT FUNCTIONS
DURABLE CONSTRUCTION
HIGH PERFORMANCE
SECURITY
EASY USER INTERFACE
2.5 kHz STEP FOR VHF/UHF
Ensuring full compatibility with all channel loading requirements,
the VX-6000’s synthesizer provides 2.5 kHz resolution. Channel
programming therefore is straightforward in all configuration situations.
EMERGENCY FUNCTIONS
The VX-6000 may be programmed to transmit an Emergency
DTMF ANI burst, with or without a live microphone engaged,
to alert the dispatcher to an emergency situation requiring
assistance to the user.
ENCRYPTION
The FVP-25 Encryption Unit or FVP-35 Rolling code encryption
Unit provides security for your important
public safety and
private security communications, and it also includes a DTMF
Paging function(FVP-25) for selective calling.
INTERNAL EMERGENCY MICROPHONE
In an emergency situation, the VX-6000
can transmit using an internal microphone
should the regular microphone
become
damaged or otherwise unusable.
DIE-CAST CONSTRUCTION ALUMINUM CHASSIS/ENCLOSURE
The one-piece die-cast enclosure for the VX-6000 doubles
as its chassis, yielding extreme strength for resistance against
shock and vibration. This uniquely
rugged construction
ensures that
specifications and functionality
will be maintained for many years,
despite the shock, vibration, and
other abuse typically experienced
by radios in public safety use.
LARGE 8-DIGIT ALPHANUMERIC DISPLAY
Providing indication of either the channel number or an
Alphanumeric Channel Label of up to 8 characters, the LCD
display utilizes large, bold characters on its high-intensity
backlit amber LED display to provide excellent visibility over
a wide range of viewing angles and in difficult lighting situations.
7 PROGRAMMABLE BACKLIT KEYS
The front panel keys may be programmed by the dealer for a
variety of operating functions, allowing customization of the
front panel functions to your unique requirements. The keys
are illuminated from behind, as well, for easy viewing at night.
RADIO TO RADIO CLONE FEATURE
For quick programming of VX-6000 radios for an emergency
task force, the Clone feature allows copying of all channel
and other configuration data from one VX-6000 to another,
using the optional CT-72 Cloning Cable.
LOUD 5W/10W AUDIO OUTPUT
The VX-6000’s high-powered audio (5 Watts standard, 10 Watts
optional) is coupled to a large, front-facing speaker, producing
high-quality, crisp audio that will punch through even in the
noisy environments experienced by public safety officers.
STATUS QUICK-CHECK (SQC) FEATURE
The VX-6000 can be programmed to include the Status Quick
Check (SQC) feature, which allows the user to check the
configuration of all controls, keys, and knobs on the radio. This
enables the operator to avoid missing important communications
in the event that a control or switch is set to the wrong position.
HIGH-RELIABILITY CONSTRUCTION
The ABS front panel is
sealed by a robust O-ring,
and all switches are covered
by U-shaped silicone rubber
gaskets to protect the internal
circuitry from dust, humidity,
salt fog, and driving rain.
WATER-SHIELD MICROPHONE CONNECTION
The multi-pin microphone connector on the side of the VX-6000,
sealed for protection against weather, provides a convenient
connection point for the available microphones. Its gold-plated
contacts ensure many years of reliable service.

COMPANDER INCLUDED
For narrow-band channel applications, the built-in Audio
Companding system compresses the voice waveform during
transmission, and expands it during reception, allowing full-
sounding audio despite the restricted transmission bandwidth.
