Motorola XTL2500 Control Head

[chudson584]

I'm needing to separate a control head from a XTL2500 700/800 Trunking radio for remote mount. Can I just get a kit to separate the head from the main unit or do I need to reflash, or get a whole new unit to do it? What is needed, specifically, to separate the head from the main body?

There is a separation kit that you will need to purchase from Motorola to separate the head from the body, but there is no special or flash modifications that you will need to do.

There are 2 different kits for the XTL and it is based on the manufactured date of the radio. You will probably need the serial number information to provide to whoever you are purchasing the kit from. I have the part #'s in the office and I will provide them to you later.

Here are the part #'s:

H1818 retrofit kit if radio was purchased after 7/1/06
H1825 retrofit kit if radio was purchased before 7/1/06

The interconnect cable is not included and the 3 meter cable is part # G618 when ordering with the kit.

Here are the part #'s:

H1818 retrofit kit if radio was purchased after 7/1/06
H1825 retrofit kit if radio was purchased before 7/1/06

Just FWIW. Both items are now "above price book" meaning they must be purchased from Full Line Motorola dealers, not through the regular reseller channel. You might be better off building your remote kit from individual parts.
