PMLN8299A: top-grain leather, D-rings and snap close, 3 inch swivel belt loop.
The Motorola PMLN8299A is a hard leather carry case for the R7 display model, made of top-grain leather with D-rings and a snap close, fitted with a 3 inch swivel belt loop so the radio rotates freely while staying securely attached to the belt.
Top-grain leather construction, for demanding daily use

Radios on an industrial site get dropped, knocked against structures and worn against
harnesses all day. A fitted hard case takes that wear instead of the radio, and the cost of
one is a small fraction of the cost of a certified portable, let alone the cost of having one
out of service.
Motorola's own part, the PMLN8299A, is built from top-grain leather - the outer, most
durable layer of the hide - specifically because it holds up under exactly this kind of
demanding daily handling. It carries D-rings and a snap close for securing the radio in, and
the belt loop is the detail that decides whether the case actually gets used: a 3 inch swivel
loop lets the radio rotate freely on the belt for comfort and reach, while staying securely
attached rather than needing to be unclipped every time the wearer bends, climbs or sits.
It is fitted to the R7 display model with its full keypad, so the case is shaped to that
specific variant rather than being a generic pouch - which is what keeps the screen and
controls usable without taking the radio out. A radio kept in its case on a swivel belt loop
stays with its user and to hand; one carried loose ends up on a handrail or in a toolbox, which
is how radios are actually lost and damaged.

Support & Documents
PT Vivo Asia Teknologi Indonesia supplies and services radio and GMDSS equipment as
part of a compliant installation rather than as a boxed item. Our scope typically covers:
Selection against the vessel's or facility's carriage requirements and area of operation.
Installation design: antenna siting, feeder runs, power supplies and battery backup.
Supply, installation, termination and commissioning.
Radio survey support, and coordination with class and flag administration where needed.
Programming, channel plans and licence documentation.
Annual testing, battery replacement and ongoing maintenance.
Approvals, frequencies and electrical details vary by variant and market and are
confirmed against the current manufacturer datasheet at quotation stage. Tell us the
vessel type or site, the flag and the equipment already installed, and we will come back
with the right variant and a full bill of materials.
