Figure 1-1. Physical Features of the SSE 5000 Radio
The SSE 5000 portable radio operates in the UHF Range 2 (450–488 MHz) frequency band. It can
be programmed with up to 96 channels. Earlier versions of the radio, which could be programmed
with up to 48 channels, can be upgraded to 96-channel capability via FLASHport
® .
1.2 FLASHport
®
The SSE 5000 radio utilizes Motorola’s FLASHport technology. FLASHport allows you to add
software that drives the radio’s capabilities, both at the time of purchase and afterwards. Previously,
changing a radio’s features and capabilities meant significant modifications, or buying a new radio.
Now the radio’s features and capabilities can be upgraded with FLASHport software, similar to how a
computer can be loaded with different software. For information on upgrading the radio’s features
using FLASHport, see the FLASHport User Guide (Motorola publication part number 6881094C35).
