Integrated GPS for Location Management
Thanks to the integrated GPS receiver/antenna, the current
location of the radio can be sent to a recipient. Positional
data enables effective management when used with
applications like KAS-20 AVL & Dispatch Software. GPS data
acquired at set time intervals can be stored in the radio’s
memory.
Bluetooth
®
Bluetooth is a means of wireless transfer of audio and data
between two Bluetooth-compatible devices. The NX-3000
supports Bluetooth Headset Profile (HSP), which can be
used to pair the radio and a Bluetooth-compatible headset
to initiate a voice call using the mic of the headset. What’s
more, the radio is also compatible with Bluetooth Serial Port
Profile (SPP) to enable communication with peripheral devices
for various applications.
Location Notification. Hands-free Operation.
Maintaining Confidentiality
Hearing clearly is essential. But you don’t want your
conversation to be heard by others. KENWOOD offers
optional 56-bit DES encryption, advanced 256-bit AES
encryption
*3
for both digital protocols, and 40-bit ARC4
encryption for DMR.
*3 Availability of AES encryption may vary depending on the region.
Tough & Robust
All KENWOOD radios go through stringent tests before
shipment, including drop, immersion, splash, key punch, extreme
temperature, dust, and heavy rain to simulate the harshest
operating conditions experienced in a variety of applications.
The portable radios also meet international ingress protection
standards, including IP54, IP55, and IP67. The mobile radios
feature IP54 protection. Also, all radios meet the MIL-STD 810
C to G standards set by the U.S. Department of Defense.

Securing the Radio, Safeguarding Staff
Text Messaging
The NX-3000 Series enables sending/receiving text messages when using
either digital protocol. These can be simple canned status messages
(confirming receipt, etc.) or short text messages (ideal for relaying addresses
and phone numbers). FM analog can also be used.
Over-the-Air Programming (OTAP) and Over-the-Air Alias (OAA)
OTAP allows simultaneous writing of configuration data to subscriber units in
NXDN mode using wireless communications, which is updated remotely from
a base station. Exclusive to NXDN system, this convenient function can be
performed by installing OTAP Manager Software KPG-180AP to a PC, which
transfers the configuration to the base station transceiver to distribute the
data. OAA is another convenient feature only available on the NXDN trunking
systems that displays the caller ID name on the radio display even if the ID is not
configured for display. This feature is especially handy when you are roaming
on a system and new subscriber units from the system in service are temporarily
added.
Detecting the Status of Remote Workers
When you have staff working alone or in remote locations, it can be very
important to know how they are doing. The NX-3000 Series features are a set of
functions that helps to protect the safety of workers.
l
Emergency Button:
Prominent orange button on the portable
radios can be used by a worker to signal an emergency to the base
station. This function can be assigned to other buttons, including
the speaker microphone’s PF button for portables, and the AUX
button for both portables and mobiles.
l
Lone Worker:
If a radio is set to Lone Worker mode and not operated for a
set period of time, a 2-beep tone is emitted to alert the user. If the radio is still
not operated, then it automatically triggers Emergency Mode to notify the base
station.
l
Activity Detection:
Three functions will trigger Emergency Mode to notify
headquarters or the base station: Man-down Detection, when the radio tilts to
one side; Stationary Detection, when the radio is left stationary for a length of
time; and Motion Detection, which detects abnormal shaking for a prolonged
period.
Designed to Go with
All Sizes and Shapes
Capability to operate in digital protocol
allows extending your channel capacity.
The NX-3000 radios are designed to fit in
different systems, from shopping mall or
hospitality setting using conventional digital
system in NXDN or DMR, to wider multi-site
trunking systems using IP networking such as
NXDN Type-C and Gen2 that extend across
a campus or plant, even as wide as state/
province or nationwide.
