Icom F2100D 63 USA Portable Digital Radio UHF 400 - 470 MHz type-D Trunking IP67

The Icom F2100D 63 USA (model code F2100DL RC) is the 400–470 MHz, no-display variant of Icom's IDAS F2100D series — an entry-to-mid-level UHF portable built specifically for commercial and public-safety deployments that demand robust digital trunking, wide-area NXDN multi-site conventional, and seamless analog fallback in a single, pocketable form factor. Confirmed on the official Icom America product page, the radio delivers a class-leading 1500 mW audio output through Icom's custom high-power-handling-capacity speaker with an acoustically engineered housing, supports NXDN Type-D single-site trunking and IDAS conventional operation, and ships ready for demanding environments with IP67/55/54 ingress protection and verification across 12 MIL-STD-810-G environmental test categories. The proprietary AquaQuake function actively expels water from the speaker grille after submersion, while intelligent safety features — Man Down, Lone Worker, and Motion/Stationary Detection — make it a reliable choice for solo workers and large-team operations alike in education, hospitality, retail, utilities, and field services.

Key features & benefits

• NXDN Type-D Single-Site Trunking — Supports IDAS conventional, IDAS multi-site conventional over IP network, and NXDN Type-D single-site trunking, enabling scalable deployment from small single-channel systems to enterprise-wide trunked networks without a hardware swap.
• Multi-Mode Flexibility — Operates in Analog FM, NXDN or dPMR Mode 1/Mode 2 conventional, NXDN multi-site conventional over IP, NXDN Type-D single-site trunking, and analog/digital mixed mode — allowing incremental migration from legacy analog fleets to full IDAS digital without stranding existing infrastructure.
• Class-Leading 1500 mW Audio — Icom's custom high-power-handling-capacity speaker, combined with an acoustically engineered casing, delivers 1500 mW of loud, clear output — the highest in its class — ensuring intelligibility in high-ambient-noise environments such as warehouses, event venues, and outdoor worksites.
• AquaQuake Water-Expulsion Technology — A proprietary speaker-grille water-expulsion function vibrates the speaker to actively clear any water that penetrates the grille after submersion, maintaining audio quality immediately after exposure without manual drying.
• IP67 / IP55 / IP54 & MIL-STD-810-G Ruggedness — Triple IP ratings (67, 55, and 54) and successful testing across 12 MIL-STD-810-G environmental categories — including shock, vibration, temperature extremes, humidity, and dust — confirm real-world durability for field-intensive applications.
• Intelligent Worker-Safety Functions — Built-in Motion/Stationary Detection drives Man Down and Lone Worker alerts, automatically notifying dispatch if a worker becomes incapacitated or stationary for a configurable period — critical for lone-worker compliance in hazardous environments.
• AMBE+2 Digital Vocoder — The AMBE+2 vocoder delivers efficient, low-bit-rate digital voice encoding that maximizes audio clarity in marginal RF conditions and enables PTT-ID, individual, group, all-call, late entry for group call, status call, polling, and call alert functions over NXDN.
• Up to 18-Hour Operating Time — The supplied BP-280 battery pack provides up to 18 hours of operation on a single charge, reducing mid-shift battery swaps and lowering total cost of ownership for high-utilization deployments.
• Compact, Lightweight Form Factor — At 52.2 mm (W) × 111.8 mm (H) — 2.1 × 4.4 in — the F2100D 63 USA sits comfortably in the hand without the bulk of larger trunking portables, reducing operator fatigue during extended wear.
• 16-Position Rotary Channel Selector — A dedicated 16-position rotary selector and separate ON/OFF volume knob allow gloved-hand channel changes without menu navigation, improving operational speed in the field.
