The Motorola CLP1083e is a compact, 1-watt UHF business radio with 8 channels, built for Canadian teams that need to separate communication across departments, zones, or workflows without cross-talk. Lightweight and discreet, the CLP1083e is a professional-grade business two-way radio ideal for retail floors, hotels, schools, restaurants, and medical offices.
Who It’s For
Choose the CLP1083e when one channel isn’t enough — it lets you run separate talk groups across teams and locations. If your team only needs a single shared channel, step down to the Motorola CLP1013e. Outfitting a whole crew? Step up to the CLP1083e 6-Pack with Multi-Unit Charger.
8 Channels
Manage communication across roles, departments, or locations without cross-talk — far more flexible than a single-channel radio.
1 Watt UHF Power
UHF 450–470 MHz output covers up to 100,000 sq. ft. or 10 floors — reliable clarity across busy indoor sites.
All-Day Battery
Up to 18 hours of runtime on a single charge keeps front-facing staff connected through a full shift.
Smart Status Glow Ring
A colour-coded LED ring shows active channel, transmit/receive, volume, and battery at a glance — no menus to read.
VOX Hands-Free
A large PTT button plus VOX hands-free operation lets staff communicate without breaking from the task at hand.
Built Tough
Meets Military Standard 810H and carries an IP54 rating for dust and water resistance — ready for real-world work.

The CLP1083e is the right pick for growing Canadian operations that have outgrown a single channel — retail teams managing multiple departments, hotels coordinating front desk, housekeeping, and security, educational campuses with staff in motion, plus event venues, warehouses, and medical offices. Its discreet, lightweight profile keeps it out of the way of front-facing staff while the 8-channel capacity keeps each team on its own talk path.
Round out each unit with genuine CLP gear — chargers, batteries, earpieces, and belt clips — from the CLPe Accessories collection. Equipping a full team is faster and tidier with a kit from the CLP Bundles collection. Not sure if the CLP1083e is the right fit? Contact our Canadian support team or call 800-681-8023.
