Motorola WAVE TLK100 Push-to-Talk Over Cellular Radio
Wide-Area LTE & Wi-Fi • Up to 96 Channels • 18-Hr Battery • MIL-STD 810 / IP54 • AES-256
Canadian service planning: A paid WAVE PTX subscription, compatible device configuration and activation are required. Confirm service eligibility and supported LTE/Wi-Fi coverage for every planned location before ordering; coverage is not guaranteed everywhere in Canada.
The Motorola WAVE TLK100 is a rugged push-to-talk over cellular (PoC) two-way radio that connects your team across the country over 4G LTE and Wi-Fi networks — a compatible device, service plan and activation required. Built for fleets, large job sites, and multi-location operations that have outgrown the range limits of traditional radios, the TLK100 requires service activation before deployment and runs on Motorola's nationwide WAVE PTX platform. A WAVE PTX subscription is required for connectivity.
Who It's For
The TLK100 is the rugged, no-screen workhorse for teams that need coverage well beyond a single building — towing, large retail, big-box job sites, and nationwide property management. Need a wearable, Wi-Fi-first device for indoor-centric staff instead? Step down to the Motorola TLK 25 radio. Outfitting vehicles and dispatch? Pair it with the Motorola TLK 150 mobile radio — all run on the same WAVE PTX network.
Key Features
Wide-Area PTT Over Cellular
Push-to-talk uses a supported LTE connection and an active WAVE PTX subscription — use private or group calls where the activated service and network support them.
LTE & Wi-Fi Connectivity
Use a supported LTE connection or configured Wi-Fi network. Coverage and Wi-Fi performance must be checked at the places where the radios will be used.
18-Hour Battery Life
A rechargeable lithium-ion battery delivers up to 18 hours of runtime — full-shift performance on a single charge.
Rugged & Slim Design
An ultra-slim profile under an inch thick that meets MIL-STD 810 and IP54 for dust, water, and demanding work environments.
GPS & Location Tracking
Integrated GPS gives real-time location and presence, improving coordination, accountability, and safety in the field.
AES-256 Encryption
Carrier-grade AES-256 encryption keeps every transmission private and secure for industries where confidentiality matters.
Remote Fleet Management
Over-the-air device management lets IT update, provision, and reconfigure the fleet from the WAVE PTX online portal — no cables, no manual programming.

Frequently Asked Questions About the Motorola WAVE TLK100
• Does the Motorola WAVE TLK100 require a radio licence?
A paid Motorola WAVE PTX subscription is required to activate and use the radio. Confirm Canadian device eligibility, service activation, and any requirements for connecting to an existing radio system with our Canadian team before ordering.
• What is the range of the Motorola WAVE TLK100?
Coverage depends on the activated Canadian WAVE PTX service plan, supported LTE or configured Wi-Fi, and conditions at each location. Check coverage for all planned locations before deployment; a cellular signal alone does not confirm service eligibility.
• How long does the TLK100 battery last?
The Motorola WAVE TLK100 delivers up to 18 hours of battery life on a single charge from its rechargeable lithium-ion battery, comfortably covering a full work shift.
• How is the TLK100 different from the TLK 25 and TLK 150?
All three run on the same WAVE PTX platform. The TLK100 is a rugged handheld for wide-area, outdoor-capable fleet use; the TLK 25 is a compact, wearable, Wi-Fi-first device for indoor staff; and the TLK 150 is a vehicle-mounted mobile radio for drivers and dispatch.
• Is communication on the TLK100 secure?
Yes. The TLK100 uses AES-256 encryption over carrier-grade LTE and Wi-Fi networks, keeping conversations private and protected — well suited to industries where confidentiality is essential.
