The Zebra FR55 First Responder Mobile Computer is a purpose-built, rugged communications device designed to meet the demanding needs of emergency services, including police, fire, and paramedics. Engineered for mission-critical operations, it provides instant access to secure voice and data communications, high-resolution imaging, and interoperable systems—all in a durable, handheld device that performs reliably in the harshest conditions.
Equipped with a powerful 2.4GHz Qualcomm® processor, Wi-Fi 6E, and 5G connectivity, the FR55 ensures first responders can stay connected to colleagues, databases, and command centres in real-time. It supports a wide range of public safety frequencies, works across multiple narrowband and broadband networks, and includes integration with platforms such as TETRA and LTE.
The FR55 is equipped with voice clarity features, AI-based noise suppression, and broadcast-ready functions, including a push-to-talk feature. Its rugged design, full-shift hot-swappable battery, and security-focused architecture make it a vital tool for critical communications and situational awareness on the front line.
Built for Public Safety Interoperability
The FR55 connects seamlessly with narrowband devices and modern LTE/5G networks, supporting TETRA, DMR, P25, and TETRAPOL radio systems. This ensures compatibility across emergency agencies, improving collaboration in high-stakes environments.
Mission-Critical Voice & Push-to-Talk Broadcast
Designed for crystal-clear audio in noisy environments, the FR55 features three microphones, two speakers, and supports both wired and wireless headsets. It supports Evolved Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service (eMBMS) for live broadcasting of maps, images, video, or voice to many users simultaneously.
Wi-Fi 6E and 5G for Uninterrupted Data Access
With Wi-Fi 6E’s wider bandwidth and Zebra’s Wireless Fusion™ software, users benefit from rock-solid roaming and reduced latency. Combined with 5G (Release 16) compatibility, responders can rely on uninterrupted data transfer when it matters most.
Rugged, Waterproof, and Ready for the Real World
Rated IP68 and IP65 and drop-tested to 2.4 metres with its boot, the FR55 is both waterproof and dustproof. It withstands 1,000 tumbles from 1 metre and is built to survive the challenges of firefighting, rescue work, or urban patrols.
Exceptional Visual Clarity for Photos and Video
Capture detailed, high-resolution imagery in both bright and low-light scenarios with the 16MP rear camera and 8MP front camera. HDR and PDAF (Phase Detection Autofocus) ensure accurate documentation and enhanced evidence-gathering.
Large, Bright Display for Any Conditions
The 6.0-inch Full HD screen (2160 x 1080) delivers edge-to-edge visibility in sunlight, darkness, or wet conditions. It’s designed for use with gloves and built with Corning Gorilla Glass for added durability.
Full-Shift Power with Hot-Swappable Battery
The FR55 features a 4680mAh battery with fast charging and a hot-swap function, ensuring uninterrupted power without requiring the device to shut down. Ideal for extended shifts in the field.
