Icom IC-F2100DS IDAS UHF Digital Two-Way Radio

The Icom IC-F2100DS is a compact UHF digital portable radio designed for commercial, industrial, education, hospitality, transportation, security, and government communications. The DS version combines an LCD display, limited keypad, 128 channels, and 8 zones with Icom's IDAS™ digital platform and analog FM compatibility.

Built for everyday professional use, the IC-F2100DS delivers powerful 1500 mW internal speaker audio, IP67 waterproof and dust-tight protection, AquaQuake™ water-clearing technology, and integrated safety functions including motion detection, stationary detection, Man Down, and Lone Worker.

Compact Digital Radio with LCD and Limited Keypad

The IC-F2100DS sits between Icom's full-keypad and non-display versions of the F2100D Series. It provides an LCD display and limited keypad for users who need access to channel, call, and status information without the complexity of a full numeric keypad.

With support for up to 128 channels across 8 zones, the F2100DS is well suited for organizations that operate multiple departments, workgroups, locations, or radio channels.

Powerful 1500 mW Audio

Icom uses a high-output internal speaker and an acoustically engineered radio housing to provide up to 1500 mW typical audio output. This helps improve intelligibility in warehouses, manufacturing facilities, construction environments, transportation operations, and other locations with elevated background noise.

IDAS Digital and Analog Operation

The IC-F2100DS supports Icom's IDAS digital radio platform while maintaining analog FM capability. Depending on programming and system configuration, supported operating modes include analog FM, NXDN digital conventional operation, and NXDN Type-D single-site trunking.

Mixed analog and digital operation can help organizations migrate from an existing analog system to digital communications without replacing every radio at once.

Digital Calling and Messaging Features

Available IDAS functions include individual, group, and all-call operation along with status messaging, polling, call alerts, and short data messaging. The LCD-equipped F2100DS also supports Over-the-Air Alias functionality for displaying caller information without requiring every alias to be programmed manually into each radio.

Built for Demanding Work Environments

The IC-F2100DS provides IP67 waterproof and dust-tight protection and is tested to applicable MIL-STD-810G environmental standards. It is designed for professional users who need a compact radio capable of operating in demanding indoor and outdoor environments.

Icom's AquaQuake function uses low-frequency speaker vibration to help clear water that may enter the speaker grill.
