XL-200
Innovative Communication Solutions for First Responders
Developed with direct input from public safety professionals, the L3Harris XL-200 sets the standard as the only full-spectrum, LTE-capable radio on the market. By conducting interviews and observational research with first responder units, KEK Design delivered significant advancements in both audio quality and user interface design. The result is a radio that meets the unique demands of professionals in the field with precision and reliability.
Ergonomics: Designed for Every Hand
Our team conducted thorough research on radio forms and knob configurations, focusing on how small details affect usability. Using an iterative block modeling process, we tested various knob and display arrangements to ensure users of all hand sizes could comfortably interact with the controls. The final design improves both comfort and efficiency for every user.
Engineering: Precision Meets Practicality
We analyzed the radio's components for manufacturability and structural integrity, ensuring durability and strength. Using CNC technology, our in-house model shop precisely machined the parts. This integration of design and engineering results in a reliable product suitable for demanding environments.
