Vehicle‑Mounted Design

Compact main unit installs in the trunk or under a seat, while the full‑featured control head mounts on the dashboard for easy access while driving.

NXDN / DMR + Analog

Operates in all three modes—choose NXDN for ultra‑narrowband efficiency, DMR for wide compatibility, or analog for legacy systems. Mixed‑mode automatically selects the right protocol.

VHF Coverage

Full VHF band coverage (136–174 MHz) provides excellent outdoor and rural range, ideal for transportation, utilities, and forestry.

50W High Power

Switchable between 50 W and 5 W, ensuring reliable communication over long distances or through challenging terrain. Conserve vehicle battery with lower power when in close convoy.

Loud 4W Audio

The internal 4‑watt speaker delivers crisp voice even in noisy truck cabins. Connect an external speaker for up to 6 W of output in heavy equipment or emergency vehicles.

260 Channels / 128 Zones

Organise your fleet with extensive channel and zone capacity. Assign departments, geographic areas, or specific talk groups — all quickly accessible from the control head.

Mixed Mode Auto‑Detection

The NX‑1700 automatically identifies whether an incoming call is analog or digital and responds in the correct mode. Seamless interoperability without user intervention.

GPS Support (Optional)

Integrated multi‑constellation GNSS receiver provides real‑time vehicle location. Essential for fleet tracking, geofencing, and lone worker safety.

IP Connectivity & Remote Management

Built‑in Ethernet port allows remote configuration, firmware updates, and real‑time monitoring. Diagnostic information helps prevent downtime before it happens.

Rugged & Reliable

MIL‑STD‑810 certified for vibration, shock, and temperature extremes. IP54 protection ensures dust and water resistance for year‑round operation in harsh environments.

Kenwood NX-1700 is a professional‑grade mobile radio designed to be the communication backbone of your vehicle fleet. Whether coordinating delivery trucks, emergency response units, or construction machinery, the NX‑1700 delivers big‑radio power and protocol flexibility in a compact, easy‑to‑install format.

Dual Digital, One Radio: Unlike single‑protocol mobiles, the NX‑1700 lets you choose between NXDN and DMR digital standards via software. NXDN’s ultra‑narrow 6.25 kHz spacing provides superior spectrum efficiency, while DMR’s 12.5 kHz TDMA offers two talk‑paths per channel. Both modes coexist alongside analog, so you can upgrade your fleet radio by radio without losing contact with legacy equipment.

Built for the Road: The 50‑watt transmitter punches through noise and distance, providing reliable coverage across cities, highways, or open countryside. The 4‑watt internal speaker (expandable to 6 W) ensures every message is heard — even in the loudest truck or emergency vehicle. The control head's large LCD display and backlit keys remain readable in direct sunlight or total darkness.

Smart Fleet Management: Optional GPS enables real‑time tracking of every vehicle. The Ethernet port supports IP‑based remote programming and diagnostics, allowing your IT team to update settings or troubleshoot radios across the entire fleet from a central location — no need to visit each vehicle. Emergency, lone worker, and man‑down features enhance driver safety.

Why Choose Kenwood NX‑1700? It's a future‑proof investment into your mobile communications. With its dual‑protocol capability, rugged construction, and advanced fleet connectivity, the NX‑1700 adapts to your operational needs and grows with your organisation.
