Introduction Standard Configurations 1-5
1.2 Standard Configurations
The XPR 4000/XPR 4000e Series mobile can be either dash mounted or remote mounted. The XPR
5000/XPR 5000e Series mobile can only be dash mounted at this time.
1.2.1 Dash Mount Configuration
In the dash mount configuration of the mobile radio, the control head is mounted on the front of the
transceiver housing. Electrical connection between the two takes place within the radio via a flexible
cable between the connectors on the front of the transceiver and at the back of the control head.
Figure 1-6 Dash Mount Configuration
For details on this configuration, see Section 2.2.1 on page 2-5.
1.2.2 Remote Mount Configuration (XPR 4000/XPR 4000e Series Mobiles Only)
In the remote control version, the control head and the transceiver are mounted separately in the
vehicle. The control head is mounted in a remote trunnion (PMLN4912_) near the operator using an
extension cable. The transceiver is mounted using one of the trunnion mounting options shown in
Table 2-1 on page 2-4. If the transceiver is located in a car trunk, be sure that secure mounting and
sufficient cooling are provided. Do not cover the transceiver with baggage, blankets, etc.
