It is also tested to MIL-STD-810H for drops, vibration and shock, and operates from -30°C to +60°C.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDo I need a radio licence to use the PDC580?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou need a radio licence to use the PDC580's DMR and analogue radio channels in New Zealand, as they run on licensed UHF or VHF frequencies. PoC calls use the mobile network instead, so they need a SIM and a PoC platform subscription rather than a radio licence. MSL can program the radio onto your existing licence or help you arrange one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow long does the PDC580 battery last?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PDC580's 3,000 mAh battery is designed by Hytera to cover a full working shift. Real-world life depends on how much you transmit and how much time you spend on PoC versus radio. If the battery runs low, a 30-minute USB Type-C charge gives up to 8 hours of use, according to Hytera.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the PDC580 work when there is no mobile coverage?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PDC580 still works without mobile coverage, because its DMR and analogue radio keeps running on your local radio channels. That gives your team radio-to-radio comms during a network outage or in a black spot, within normal radio range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is the PDC580 for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PDC580 is for organisations that already run UHF or VHF radio and want to add nationwide PoC without replacing their fleet. Think utilities, councils, ports, security firms, emergency and volunteer groups, and contractors working across multiple sites.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhich mobile networks does the PDC580 support?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PDC580 supports the main LTE bands used by New Zealand's mobile networks, including Band 28 (700 MHz), which carries much of the rural coverage. Coverage in your area depends on the network and SIM you choose, so ask us before you commit to a plan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan the PDC580 talk to my existing Hytera or other DMR radios?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe PDC580 can talk to existing DMR and analogue radios on the same band and channels. Used as a voice gateway, it can also bridge those radios to PoC users on the mobile network, so your whole team stays on one conversation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWant to see whether the PDC580 fits your setup? Call the MSL team in Mt Maunganui or email info@mobilesystems.co.nz, and we'll help you plan the right mix of radio and PoC.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Hytera","offers":[{"title":"UHF 400-470MHz","offer_id":45146703888435,"sku":"PDC580-UHF","price":1685.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true},{"title":"VHF 136-174MHz","offer_id":45146703921203,"sku":"PDC580-VHF","price":1685.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0026\/7357\/3939\/files\/PDC580_7c3bb7433ca337bb1e85cb38e974272e.png?v=1792639579","url":"https:\/\/mobilesystems.nz\/products\/hytera-pdc580-dual-mode-radio","provider":"Mobile Systems Limited","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
