Will EVX-S24 work with XPR 7550e?

[CaptainNoGo]

Hi all, I am trying to get a expand an LMR system at my new place of employment, and could use a quick hand. I have been researching as much as i can as Quickly as i can, and at this point, my brain is full and momentarily unable to figure out if i am missing something. I am admittedly new to the world of DMR radio, but i can only keep trying to learn. so...
We are in the process of getting our lease for UHF frequencies and have a set of radios coming in soon- a few XPR 5550e mobile units and a handful of XPR 7550e hand held units. We do a lot of work on the water and it seems likely that someone with a radio will end up swimming with it, and i would like to get a few more people involved in testing operations so i was looking at adding some EVX-S24 units, but i can't tell if they will be compatible with the XPR 7550e already on order.
could anyone please help me out with some input?
I would be very grateful.
thanks,
CNG

yes, but keep in mind they are at a lower power

awesome. Thanks for the reply, and the reminder on the power. I think the range will also be even more reduced due to the "stubby", correct? Do they both offer the same/compatible levels of privacy or encryption? If not, would anyone have a recommendation for an alternative similar to the S24- IP68 and form factor? We are working on a sensitive project, people are a little worried about being snooped.
