FIF-12A USB PC Interface Programming Kit
USB PC Interface • Programs VX & EVX Radios • USB Cable • Interface Box • Pigtail Sold Separately
The FIF-12A USB PC Interface is the USB programming interface kit used to program Vertex Standard VX and EVX two-way radios from a PC. This is the kit without the pigtail — it ships with the USB cable and the interface box, and pairs with the CT-106 programming pigtail (sold separately) to connect to your specific radio model. It is built for dealers, fleet managers, and technicians who handle their own VX and EVX programming in-house.
Who It's For
Choose the FIF-12A USB PC Interface if you already own — or will buy separately — the matching CT-106 pigtail for your radio. Want both in one box? The FIF-12 Interface with CT-106 Pigtail bundles the interface and pigtail together.
