DX544-IS


Built to meet the needs of tough marine environments, the DX500 Series is certified to the UL913 intrinsically safe standard and offers outstanding performance. This commercial-grade portable delivers unmatched audio volume and clarity. The intuitive controls, designed for gloved hands, complement the high-contrast OLED display, which is easy to read in low-light conditions.

The compact and ultra-durable DX500 provides a far more natural sounding, 3 watts of digital audio, clearer and louder than radios twice their size. For further peace of mind, the DX500 Series has a market-leading IP68 submersible rating of 2 metres for 4 hours to cope with the harsh conditions of life at sea. We have produced a selection of certified and approved audio accessories for the DX500 Series, including remote speaker microphones, bone conductive skull mics and ear defender headsets.

High contrast white on black OLED display - Entel's radios benefit from a high contrast white on black OLED display that delivers superior readability in varying light conditions adding to the radios intuitive user interface.

End user programmer - Entel adds and improves features on its DX radios by way of free software updates. Using Entel’s innovative End User Programmer app Entel DX radios can be easily upgraded without the Dealer having to visit site or courier the radios back and forth saving significant time and expense.

Memory scan – enables the radios user to create / change their own channel scan list.

Programmable switch on logo - As a personal touch it is possible to upload your customers own logo to Entel display radios so it is displayed when the radio is booting up.
