2-In-1 Radio.
For One-Of-A-Kind Interoperability
Motorola APX™ 7500 Multi-Band Mobile Radios

Designed for today.
Engineered for the future.
APX Mobile: Technology driven by government challenges
When every second counts, federal personnel must be able to communicate
with one another – no matter what agencies are involved in the operations.
Despite years of heightened attention to security and preparedness, many
agencies are looking for the right technology to achieve interoperability and
be capable of mounting a swift and effective joint response.
With the APX 7500, agencies can purchase one radio for instant multi-band
communication – and streamline the expense of maintaining, installing, and
operating multiple mobile radios.
The APX 7500 exemplifies Motorola’s commitment to meet the voice and
data demands of today’s responders in mission critical environments – to enable
anywhere, anyplace, anytime connectivity.
Motorola is the leader in providing mission critical solutions that enable
agencies to achieve interoperability goals, whether customers are upgrading
an existing system or designing a new system from the ground up.

Top Mission Critical Communication Challenges –
and How APX Answers the Call
Interoperability On Demand
Federal, state and local agencies often operate on
different frequency bands – requiring agencies
to install and maintain two radios in order to
communicate with one another.

Future Ready Investment
Agencies want to protect current investments in
mission critical radios and ensure that new radio
purchases can be updated to utilize the latest
advances in technology.

The APX solution: The APX 7500 multi-band radio can
operate in any of 2 bands (VHF/UHF R1, or 700/800
MHz frequencies)* – to enable instant, interoperable
communications for improved coordination, response,
and personnel safety.

The APX solution: The APX 7500 is backwards
and forwards compatible – it works on all existing
ASTRO® 25 systems and will also work as
customers migrate to advance technology
such as TDMA. The radios have an expansion
slot that makes adding future data applications,
such as Bluetooth® possible.

Ease of Installation
The area inside vehicles offers limited installation
space and radios can be difficult to access.
The APX solution: The APX mobiles are designed
to fit into the existing install space of XTL radios for
ease of use, installation and removal. The mid and
high-power mobiles, allow for reuse of mounting
holes and cables. The new high power trunion
design provides secure engagement and ease of
installation allowing the radio to be removed without
removing the cables.

* UHF and other bands available in the future.

Advanced Technology Provides an Answer
FDMA (Frequency Division Multiple Access) is a proven technology that is widely
used today in radio systems and is part of Project 25 Phase 1. FDMA carries one
call per channel. TDMA (Time Division Multiple Access) will be part of P25 Phase
2 requirements and it provides double the voice capacity. Customers can add
more users to their system or more data services without the need for additional
frequencies or infrastructure.
The APX radios support both P25 Phase 1 and Phase 2 technologies seamlessly.
Using Motorola’s unique Dynamic Dual Mode (DDM) capability, the radios
dynamically switch between FDMA and TDMA without the user having to
change channels. This provides complete interoperability and flexibility to
communicate with existing and future networks.

APX is Fully Compatible with the Motorola ASTRO 25 Network
APX 7500 multi-band radios were designed to work with ASTRO 25, Project 25
standards-based communications networks. With integrated voice and data
capabilities, the ASTRO 25 network offers improved communications between
multiple agencies, from everyday operations to disaster response.

“Providing cross-discipline interoperability and
increased functionality, APX is a cutting-edge
tool for communications.”

–	Eugene Vardaman, Executive Director,
	 North Carolina Criminal Justice Information Network
