Thanks to the logical menu control and the four large buttons, P50EX is easy to maneuver with heavy protective gloves. The station is also specially adapted for connection to protective clothing for smoke-helmeted fire fighters. Its robust construction ensures that it can take heat, humidity, moisture, bumps, blows, and cold. Despite extremely demanding requirements on radio stations in explosive settings, which are made by public authorities, the P50EX transmits output up to 4 W. P50EX is mainly for direct communication between people who participate in activities such as rescues. Up to 100 short numbers can be programmed.
Users can also communicate in open traffic.
