Upgrade your fleet to crystal-clear digital communication with this compact, lightweight, and highly affordable DMR radio.

The Hytera BD502i Digital Two-Way Radio is the perfect entry-point into professional digital (DMR) technology. Engineered for schools, retail environments, hospitality, and event management, the BD502i delivers enhanced audio clarity and extended coverage in an incredibly compact package that weighs only 8 ounces.

This radio features dual-mode operation with an auto-detect function, allowing it to seamlessly receive and respond to calls from your existing legacy analog radios as well as modern digital ones on the same channel. This makes the BD502i the ideal solution for fleet managers who want to slowly migrate to a digital network at their own pace without replacing all their analog radios overnight.

Built for daily professional use, the BD502i features a rugged MIL-STD-810G construction to survive drops and impacts, alongside an IP54 rating for protection against dust and splashing water. Available in both UHF and VHF models, it provides heavy-duty performance and up to 16 hours of digital battery life at a highly accessible price point.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Dual-Mode Auto-Detect: Automatically detects the signal type and switches between analog and digital (DMR Tier II) modes to communicate with both fleets.

  • Compact & Lightweight: Weighing just 8 ounces, the BD502i is comfortable to wear on a belt all day and won't weigh down uniforms or safety lanyards.

  • Crystal-Clear Audio: Digital noise-canceling technology suppresses background noise, ensuring loud and intelligible voice calls even in noisy warehouses or crowded events.

  • Extended Battery Life: The included 1500mAh Li-Ion battery provides up to 16 hours of operation in digital mode, easily covering long shifts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the Hytera BD502i work with my older analog radios?

Yes. The BD502i features dual-mode operation and an auto-detect function, meaning it can automatically receive and transmit to both legacy analog radios and modern digital (DMR) radios on the same channel.

What is the difference between the Hytera BD502i and the BD552i?

The primary difference is the physical interface. The BD502i is a screenless radio designed for simple, push-to-talk operation. The BD552i features a single-line display and a partial keypad to view caller ID and navigate channels.

Does the Hytera BD502i require an FCC license?

Yes. Because this is a high-powered professional two-way radio (4 Watts UHF / 5 Watts VHF), it requires an FCC business radio frequency license to operate legally in the United States.

Is the Hytera BD502i waterproof?

The BD502i has an IP54 rating. This means it is highly protected against dust and can withstand splashing water from any direction, making it suitable for outdoor use in light rain, but it is not designed to be submerged underwater.

Warranty

Covered by a 3-year manufacturer's warranty on the radio body and a 1-year warranty on included accessories.

Durable and Fun, Just Gets a Bit Rough
Size: Medium/Large, Color: Chopper - Large
This is a really good toy overall, especially if you have dogs that love to chew. My dogs were immediately into it—they play with it nonstop, toss it around, and stay entertained for a while, which I love. It definitely holds up better than most toys we’ve tried. The only reason I’m giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is because over time it does start to fray a bit and gets a little rough, especially with heavy chewing. It’s not completely indestructible, but it still lasts longer than a lot of other toys. Overall, still a great buy and I would recommend it if your dogs need something tough but fun!

Worthwhile!
Size: Medium/Large, Color: Turkey Day Drumstick - Large
I have a small dog with a really strong bite! Usually have to buy toys that are meant for bigger dogs. This has lasted us for what feels like forever. It does sound very heavy when dropped! My dog loves it though! Would definitely recommend!

Ohhh Mr. Iguana
Size: Medium/Large, Color: Illana the Iguana - Large
Mr. Iguana is a house favorite! I got my first one of these in a barkbox and my dog loved it so much, i went on the hunt for another one. Amazon saved the day! I own about 7 of these now. They are prefect for dogs just love to chew, they hold up great! And they are heavy duty, super easy to clean! My dogs are very happy, great value for the money! Doesn't have a smell, vibrant colors! Noise level is quiet, minus my dogs chewing !

Not for strong chewers
Size: Medium/Large, Color: Dog Ness Monster - Large
Initially, I really liked this for my dog. She is about 8 months old and still loves to chew and destroys most toys in a few minutes. When we got this, it seemed like it would hold up for a while despite being clearly gnawed on. Unfortunately, once she focused on the softer "water" portion of the toy, that is where things went downhill with this toy. After a few short chew sessions, she was tearing chunks out of it. We had purchased a replacement since she liked the original so much, and after about 5 minutes with the replacement, she had taken enough out of the blue section that we immediately threw that one out as well. Overall while the green portion held up, the blue didn't. I can't recommend this for strong chewers.

Definitely not indestructable
Size: Medium/Large, Color: Dog Ness Monster - Large, Size: Medium/Large, Color: Dog Ness Monster - Large
I have a 1-year-old toy fox terrier (Rocky, pictured). He has been chewing on this toy for seven months now; it is one of his favorites. He has been unable to seriously damage the "ocean" portion of this toy, but as you can see from the provided image, the sea serpent has not faired that well. It is missing its snout and smaller portions of the humps. My guess is that the advertiser images showing much larger dogs with "like new" versions of the toy are just that...NEW AND UNCHEWED. I have not had to clean up bits of this toy from my floor, so I assume Rocky has been swallowing them. My hope is that the yellow material of the serpent is not chemically dangerous when exposed to digestive fluids. Rocky easily destroys plush toys in a matter of days if not hours and, consumed pieces of a small microfiber blanket that he liked to toss around and play tug-of-war with (past tense as he destroyed it and has since been trashed after I began finding feces-stained undigested pieces of it lying around). Since this toy has survived seven months and has remained recognizable, I have to agree it is durable. Just beware, if my small toy fox terrier can damage the toy as pictured, expect your large breed chewer to do similar or worse damage. Also, the toy is very heavy! When Rocky drops it down a flight of stairs, it makes a MAJOR thud at the bottom, and sometimes makes me wonder if it might crack the large tile at the bottom. I cautiously recommend the product. Note the yellow frisbee in Rocky's picture. It is only a few months old and surprisingly has not suffered any chew damage despite substantial abuse. It appears to bend in the wind like a proverbial reed, evading damage by yielding to pressure.
