Project 25 (P25) Digital Features

Interoperability

The IC-F1721D, F1821D series is APCO Project 25 (P25) compliant. The mixed mode scan allows you to detect and receive both analog FM and P25 digital modes.

Mixed mode operation

The IC-F1721D/F1821D is compatible with both analog FM mode and P25 digital mode. Program digital and/or analog FM modes per channel. The mixed mode scan allows you to detect and receive both analog FM and P25 digital modes and to transmit either mode depending on programming.

AES/DES digital encryption activation software

AES and DES are encryption standards required by public safety agencies. The IC-F1721D and F1821D series provide secure encryption with DES and AES accordingly when activated with EX-2785 J02 (for DES) and EX-2785 J03 (for AES) activation software.

Upgrade to digital option

The IC-F1721/F1821 series is available in two digital versions. One version is P25 compliant out of the box. Version two is an analog only radio* that is future upgradeable to P25 digital compatibility — grow into digital with Icom.

*Optional UT-120 and EX-2785 J01 required.

Detachable front panel

With the optional remote control kit, RMK-2 and separation cable, the front panel of the radio can be detached from the main unit. It allows you flexible installation even in limited installation space. Separation cable length is selectable from 1.9, 3.0 and 8.0m.

Dot matrix, multi-function LCD

Using a high contrast LCD, the IC-F1721/F1821 series shows operating channels, tone and other settings clearly under nearly any lighting conditions. With a dot matrix display, upper and lower case characters can be easily distinguished. In addition, you can change the display setting to show one line and 12 characters, or two lines and 24 characters via programming.

Heavy-duty microphone, HM-148

The new heavy-duty hand microphone, HM-148, uses a dynamic design that is made to handle punishment. The oversized dimensions allow for easy use with gloves on. And the curl cord can be easily replaced by simply opening the case–easy maintenance for long term use.

Rugged construction
