Benefits of L3Harris XL two-way radios with FirstNet PTT
Unify trusted land mobile radio and mission-critical PTT on FirstNet
-
Enhanced service coverage, at the speed and range of broadband
Talk where LMR stops, both beyond radio system borders and deeper inside buildings.
-
LMR core network optional with an LTE-as-primary strategy
Use XL devices strictly on the FirstNet network with no radio system to maintain and upgrade.
-
Familiar features and trusted durability
Only two-way radios can do talk-around (device-to-device comms without a network). And only radios are mil-spec’d and fire-rated.
-
Switch from LMR to FNPTT talk groups, with a quick manual toggle
Toggle from LMR to MCPTT with a turn of a channel knob, or push of a programmable key. Just like how you switch from UHF to VHF today.

Frequently asked questions
Your L3Harris XL questions answered
What are the benefits of FirstNet Push-to-Talk on LMR radios?
With separate LMR and FirstNet PTT talk groups, you can manually switch from to FirstNet PTT talk groups if you hear an LMR out-of-range tone. You can also take advantage of unique FirstNet PTT features like automated mutual aid requests so you can quickly share users and talk groups among FNPTT-subscribing agencies.
Are there L3Harris XL accessories available?
Yes, customers can purchase select compatible accessories, as a part of bundled offerings or individually. Compatible portable accessories include chargers (single and multi-bay), batteries, belt clips, and speaker mics. Compatible mobile accessories include microphones, speakers, antennas, cables mounting kits, and control units.
FirstNet PTT is “Mission Critical Push-to-Talk.” How is this different than any other broadband PTT service?
FirstNet Push-to-Talk is different because it strictly adheres to 3GPP mission critical standards and its traffic receives the highest priority on the FirstNet network (other than emergency calling). Most broadband PTT services are best effort only, similar to downloadable apps.
Does FirstNet Rapid Response or AT&T Enhanced Push-to-Talk work on XL radio?
No. Only FirstNet Push-to-Talk is offered on XL radios.
Will this solution roam – or auto-switch - between LMR and LTE?
No, not at this time. A user needs to manually toggle between LMR and LTE talk groups.
