GME XRS-375C XRS Connect Heavy Duty Compact 5 Watt UHF CB Radio

GME XRS-375C XRS Connect Heavy Duty Compact 5 Watt UHF CB Radio with MIL-STD 810H Rating Bluetooth GPS and 12V/24V Power Input

The GME XRS-375C is a MIL-STD 810H rated heavy duty compact UHF CB radio delivering 5 watts of output power with Bluetooth audio and data connectivity, a built-in GPS receiver, and 12/24 volt power input for compatibility with both light vehicles and 24V heavy commercial trucks. The included MC670B professional-grade speaker microphone carries an IP67 rating for dust and water resistance.

Product overview

The XRS-375C is GME's heavy duty compact UHF CB radio, engineered for professional operators and demanding 4WD, commercial, and worksite environments where standard consumer equipment falls short. MIL-STD 810H certification covers vibration, mechanical shock, temperature extremes, and humidity resistance, making this one of the most ruggedised compact UHF CB radios available for Australian mining, agriculture, heavy transport, and serious 4WD applications.

The 12/24 volt power input installs directly into both 12V light vehicles and 24V heavy commercial trucks and machinery without voltage converters or additional power management hardware, covering an entire mixed-voltage fleet from a single radio platform. The wired PPT input connects an external push-to-talk switch for hands-free key-up in heavy machinery, trucks, and off-road vehicles where keeping both hands on the wheel is essential.

The XRS Connect smartphone app pairs via Bluetooth to add Voice Playback, Active Mute, Crewtalk, and Location Services using the radio's built-in GPS receiver. The radio operates as a fully functional UHF CB unit independently of any paired smartphone. Bluetooth and the app extend capability when connected but are not required for standard UHF CB operation. Scansuite digital scanning monitors multiple channels simultaneously. Noise Reduction Technology filters background interference on transmit and receive. Automatic Power Down protects the vehicle battery during extended stops.

Features and benefits

MIL-STD 810H rating - tested for vibration, shock, temperature, and humidity: Certified to US military environmental and mechanical standards for operation in mining, agriculture, heavy transport, and demanding 4WD environments where standard consumer radios would fail.

5 watt output - full legal UHF CB power: Delivers the maximum legal output power for UHF CB operation in Australia.

12V/24V power input - no voltage converter required: Installs directly into both 12V light vehicles and 24V heavy commercial vehicles and trucks, making it a genuine single-radio solution across mixed vehicle fleets.

MC670B IP67 speaker microphone included: The primary communication accessory is fully protected against dust ingress and temporary water immersion, essential for vehicles operating in wet or dusty conditions.

Built-in GPS receiver with XRS Connect location services: Enables Location Services when paired with the XRS Connect smartphone app via Bluetooth, extending the radio into a communication and location platform for solo drivers and crews.

Bluetooth audio and data connectivity - pairs with XRS Connect app: Unlocks Voice Playback, Active Mute, Crewtalk, and Location Services when a smartphone running the XRS Connect app is paired.

Wired PPT input - external push-to-talk compatible: Connects an external push-to-talk switch for hands-free key-up without pressing the microphone button, suited to machinery operators, truck drivers, and off-road vehicle operators.

Scansuite digital scanning technology: Monitors multiple channels simultaneously for incoming transmissions without requiring manual channel selection.

3 watt speaker and base speaker combination: Delivers clear audio from both the handheld speaker microphone and directly from the head unit.

Anti-glare colour TFT LCD display: Readable in bright sunlight and direct light conditions.

Noise Reduction Technology: Filters background interference for clear transmit and receive audio in high-noise environments.

Multiple user-customisable buttons: Configurable for frequently used functions to suit individual operator preferences.

User-updatable firmware: Allows feature updates and improvements over the operational life of the radio.

Frequently asked questions

What does MIL-STD 810H mean and why does it matter? MIL-STD 810H is a US military standard defining a series of environmental and mechanical tests covering vibration, shock, temperature extremes, and humidity resistance. A radio certified to this standard has been tested to withstand conditions significantly beyond normal consumer use, making the XRS-375C suitable for mining, agriculture, heavy transport, and serious 4WD applications where equipment faces constant physical stress.

How is the XRS-375C different from the XRS-335C? The XRS-375C adds MIL-STD 810H ruggedisation, 12/24 volt power input for heavy commercial vehicle compatibility, and a wired PPT input for external push-to-talk accessories. Operators in demanding environments or running 24V vehicle fleets should select the XRS-375C. The XRS-335C suits standard 12V passenger and 4WD applications where the additional ruggedisation is not required.

What is the wired PPT input used for? The wired PPT input connects an external push-to-talk switch to the radio, enabling hands-free key-up without pressing the microphone button. This is particularly useful for operators in heavy machinery, trucks, or off-road vehicles who need to maintain full hand and control contact while communicating.

Does the XRS-375C work in 24V trucks and heavy vehicles? Yes. The 12/24 volt power input connects directly to both 12V light vehicle and 24V heavy commercial electrical systems without requiring additional voltage conversion hardware, making it suitable for use across mixed light and heavy vehicle fleets.
