IC-FR5300 VHF Repeater

Icom IDAS IC-FR5300 VHF Digital / Analog Repeater

The FR5300 / FR6300 is a 50 Watt, high duty cycle, 32 channel VHF/UHF repeater combining analog FM and IDAS™ digital mixed mode operation. The optional UC-FR5300 network/controller board provides IP network connectivity, and it is scalable to multi-site conventional, simulcast conventional, and Type-D trunking capabilities. The FR5300 / FR6300 is another addition to Icom’s robust series of professional repeaters that support countless systems worldwide.

The FR5300 series is the second generation IDAS™ Repeater, keeping system compatibility with the original FR5000 series and continuing its unique package. It looks the same as the FR5000, but a new CPU/FPGA platform is used. The FR5300 series provides digital simulcast system capability and ±0.1 ppm high frequency stability with a 1 pps reference signal from the GNSS antenna.

• Double Channel Capacity
  IDAS doubles the capacity of the current 12.5kHz channel allocation. The IDAS system occupies only 6.25kHz spacing per channel. With the improved sensitivity of narrow band communications, increased communication greater than 12.5kHz analog mode can be achieved. Icom allows you to meet any narrow banding requirements today, and provides a solution to any future spectrum deficiencies.

• Digital and Analog Mixed Mode Operation
  The IC-FR5300 | FR6300 can receive both analog and digital signals on a single channel. You can partially introduce the IDAS system, while using the existing analog radios in a system. The IDAS system allows you to scale migration to narrow band digital at your own pace and need.

• Superior Audio Quality
  The IDAS system uses the AMBE+2™ codec, which provides clear audio and simultaneous data communication. The built-in audio compander improves the signal to noise ratio and provide clear audio.  The Compander is for analog mode only, digital mode does not require Compander since digital communication quality is superior to anaolog by nature.

• 19-inch Rack Mount 2U Height Low-Profile Design
  The IC-FR5300 | FR6300 uses only 2U height. This low profile configuration allows you to stack multiple units in an industry standard 19-inch rack and provides great space efficiency.

• 50W Output at 50% Duty Cycle, 25W at 100% Duty Cycle Operation
  Employing a high stability ±0.5ppm oscillator and high performance power amplifier, the IC-FR5300 series provides a reliable 100% duty cycle operation at 25W output. When operated at the high power setting of 50W, the repeater operates with a 50% duty cycle.

• Multiple CTCSS, DTCS Tone and RAN Code
  The IC-FR5300 | FR6300 decodes multiple CTCSS and DTCS as well as digital RAN (Radio Access Number) codes on a per channel basis (up to 16 tones/codes) and downlinks the received signal with a specified tone/code. This function is useful for sharing a channel with multiple groups and provides quiet stand-by while using other groups.

• Superior Receiver Performance
  The IC-FR5300 series has class leading receiver performance of selectivity and intermodulation rejection. It improves the quality of the repeater service even under congested band conditions.

• D-SUB 25-pin Accessory Connector
  The IC-FR5300 series has a programmable D-SUB 25-pin accessory connector for connecting various trunking controllers or external remote control devices. Also, modulation / demodulation signals can be input / output from the D-SUB connector.

• Low voltage alert
• DTMF encoder/decoder
• 5-Tone decoder* (For analog mode only)
• PTT priority setting (Local Microphone, external PTT or repeater operation)
