Campus Radio System

Quicklink(s)

The UC Irvine radio system provides cross communications between campus departments and also with other UC campuses if the need ever arises. Currently, the Motorola 700/800 MHz radio system is the only “official UC recognized” communications system for both daily and emergency operations.

The UC system uses radio systems at all UC campuses throughout the state. UCI currently uses a state-of-the-art Motorola Project 25 (P25) standards-based radio system. Almost every campus department uses the Campus Radio System for its daily operations. Our largest users are Facilities Management, Parking Services, Housing, UCI Police, and OIT. We have over 900 radios operating on the UC Irvine radio system.

Ordering a Radio

Departments that wish to obtain Campus Radio Service must submit an OIT Radio Service Request form. Departments should not contract directly with vendors for campus radio service. Purchasing a radio is a multi-step process.
