Connectivity
This section explains the management of connections between your radio and a variety of networks
and other devices.

SmartConnect

SmartConnect allows your radio to maintain voice communication when LMR is out of range by
switching to an LTE network.
Before switching broadband connections, your radio compares the relative signal strength of the
various broadband connection types to one another, as well as LMR. Your radio remains or returns
to LMR connection when the other broadband connections fall below the quality threshold. In addition,
a radio operating on a lower priority broadband connection returns to the higher priority or quality
connection while idle on SmartConnect.
NOTE: This feature must be preprogrammed by a qualified radio technician. Contact your
system administrator for more information.
Your radio displays the SmartConnect capable icon
the device is connected to an available network, the radio displays SmartConnect connection icon
.
Your radio displays Out of Range when both LMR and SmartConnect are unavailable.

Wi-Fi

You can connect your radio to a Wi-Fi network for wireless programming. Your service administrator
preprograms the Wi-Fi Service Set Identifier (SSID) or network name that your radio can connect to.
This feature is enabled by default on your radio.
NOTE: Channel 12 and 13 are enabled for Wi-Fi for all countries except US and Canada.
