SLR 1000 vs DR 3000 — 10W Self-Contained In-Building Unit vs 40W Site Workhorse: The Building-Filler vs Remote-Coverage Decision

MOTOROLA SLR 1000

10W Compact Repeater for In-Building Coverage

  • • Compact 10W DMR repeater for in-building and campus coverage
  • • Single 5-inch rack unit with integrated duplexer — eliminates external filtering
  • • Wall-mountable with passive cooling; no fans or ventilation required
  • • Supports 2 simultaneous voice paths via TDMA
  • • Integrated battery charger for 8-hour backup operation
  • • Capacity Plus single-site trunking ready with Ethernet remote management
  • • Ideal for hotels, hospitals, school campuses and underground parking
MOTOROLA DR 3000

40W Site Workhorse for Single-Site Remote Coverage

  • • 40W UHF / 25W VHF wall-mount compact repeater
  • • 100% duty cycle for continuous operation
  • • Analog + digital (DMR) dual-mode
  • • IP Site Connect and remote management ready
  • • Integrated AC/DC power supply
  • • Typical use: single-site, remote and rural coverage

The Buying Decision — Building Filler vs Site Workhorse. The SLR 1000 answers the question "how do I cover one building without building RF infrastructure": its 5-inch rack unit with integrated duplexer needs no external filtering or ventilation, and the built-in charger gives 8 hours of backup on the same footprint — priced for a hotel wing, a hospital floor, a campus core or an underground parking deck. The DR 3000 answers a different question: "how do I light up a remote or rural single site with real coverage" — 40W UHF / 25W VHF wall-mount at 100% duty cycle, IP Site Connect-ready so it joins the same multi-site network domain as an SLR 5500 head-end. Same MOTOTRBO ecosystem, deliberately different power classes: inside a building buy the SLR 1000; at the far end of the network buy the DR 3000. A hybrid site standard is common: DR 3000 for the valley/mountain site, SLR 1000 for the admin building.
