25W Version

Unique Two-in-One Repeaters

VHF IDAS DIGITAL IC-FR5100 (25W)
UHF IDAS DIGITAL IC-FR6100 (25W)

Two RF Modules in One Unit

The IC-FR5100/FR6100 series have an internal space for installing an optional RF unit, UR-FR5100 or UR-FR6100. Two RF modules can be installed in a chassis reducing installation space, and increasing channel capacity. They can be programmed and operated independently.

25W 100% Duty Cycle Operation*

Employing a high performance power amplifier, the IC-FR5100 series provides a reliable 100% duty cycle operation at 25W output. When need higher power, the optional UR-PA5000 series power amplifier provides 50W output power with 100% duty cycle.

* Ambient temperature: 25°C

19-inch Rack Mount Design, 2U Height Low Profile Design

The IC-FR5100/FR6100 series has a rack mount bracket and handles for installation in an industry standard 19-inch rack.

Multiple CTCSS and DTCS Tone Decode

The IC-FR5100/FR6100 series detects multiple CTCSS and DTCS on a channel (up to 16 tones on a table) and downlinks (transmits) the received signal with a specified tone. This function is useful for sharing a channel with multiple groups.

Base Station Operation

The IC-FR5100/FR6100 series has 5 programmable buttons, 12-digit dot-matrix display and 32 memory channels allowing you to use the repeater as a base station.

Other Features

  • Programmable accessory connector (D-sub 25-pin) for connecting trunking controllers or other external devices
  • 5-Tone and DTMF encoder/decoder
  • CW ID transmitter
  • Normal and priority scan setting
  • Wide frequency coverage
  • Built-in audio compander
