⚠ This Radio Has Been Discontinued
The Motorola RDU4100 is no longer manufactured or available for purchase — Motorola has retired the entire RDX series. For new orders we recommend its direct replacement, the Motorola CP100d — a current dual-mode analog and digital UHF business radio that covers the same on-site use with a clear digital upgrade path. Already running RDU4100 radios and need batteries or accessories? Call our team at 1-800-507-6002.
