Walkie-talkie Vertex VX 231- a portable professional UHF device that replaced the radio station. Main feature VX-231 is its compactness and low weight with high functionality and long operating time on a single battery charge in energy saving mode. Among radio stations of a similar price segment, the VX 231 radio stands out for its advanced scanning functionality, which allows you not only to scan radio channels for activity, but also to monitoring the location of the subscriber in the communication coverage area. In this case, it is possible to set up a signal, automatically or manually, from the base station, notifying the subscriber that the maximum communication distance has been reached.
The Vertex Standard VX231 radio is in many ways irreplaceabletool to systematize and optimize the work process, while having a low price tag, reliable housing design and compact dimensions, and the savings will eliminate the issue of additional funding for equipping the radio park with the necessary accessories.

Compact VHF radio with high-capacity lithium-ion battery
Vertex-Standard VX-231 radios feature expanded frequency coverage, additional signaling features and improved ergonomics for superior performance and ease of use.

Increased compactness
The VX-231 is a compact, lightweight radio that doesn't get in the way—it's easy to carry with you while you get the job done.

Increased battery capacity
Lithium-ion technology increases battery autonomy. The standard package includes a 1150 mAh battery, designed for 9 hours of operation in energy saving mode.

Expanded frequency range coverage
One model covers both the meter and decimeter ranges, which significantly expands the choice of frequencies for use (3 options for use on VHF, UHF and UHF2).

Additional scanning modes
Many radios support 1-2 scanning modes, and the VX-231 supports as many as 4: normal, two-channel, with an additional user-assigned priority channel, and checking for the presence of other radios within direct communication range.

Exclusive ARTS™ Direct Range Detection System
Only Vertex Standard radios notify the user when another ARTS™-enabled station is within range. When you leave the zone for more than 2 minutes, the radio station beeps. Also, a certain signal about the need to return to the zone can be sent from the base station. This is an excellent means of maintaining coordination among workers.
