Motorola AN000393A01 UHF Whip Antenna for APX NEXT & APX NEXT XE
The Motorola AN000393A01 is a genuine Motorola Solutions UHF whip antenna built for the APX NEXT and APX NEXT XE portable radios. It covers 350–520 MHz, which includes both the UHF Range 1 (380–470 MHz) and UHF Range 2 (450–520 MHz) portions used on APX NEXT systems. At 5.5 inches long, it sits between the compact stubby and the full-length all-band whip.
The AN000393A01 is part of Motorola's redesigned APX NEXT antenna family, which is shorter and more flexible than earlier APX antennas so it is easier to wear. It is a direct OEM replacement for a lost or damaged APX NEXT UHF antenna, and a good choice for agencies that operate on UHF only.

- Motorola APX NEXT XE portable radio: shop all APX NEXT XE batteries and accessories
Radios the AN000393A01 Does Not Fit
- APX 6000, APX 7000, APX 8000 and other earlier APX portables. Those radios need an antenna with GPS hardware built in. APX NEXT antennas have none because the GPS receiver is inside the radio, so Motorola states they cannot be used on other APX models.
- APX N30, APX N50 and APX N70. The N-series radios use a different antenna family.

AN000393A01 vs. Other APX NEXT Antennas
The AN000393A01 is the right choice when your system is UHF only. If you need more bands, or you operate on 700/800 MHz, choose one of the alternatives below.
| Antenna | Style | Coverage | Length | Best For |
| AN000393A01 | Short whip | UHF 350–520 MHz | 5.5 in | UHF-only systems |
| Motorola AN000297A01 | Flexible whip | VHF, UHF, 700/800 MHz | 7.9 in | Multi-band users and interoperability |
| Motorola AN000296A01 | Stubby | 760–870 MHz | 2.6 in | 700/800 MHz systems, most compact |
AN000369B01 | Stubby | 380–470 MHz | 3.5 in | Compact UHF Range 1 |
AN000369B02 | Stubby | 450–527 MHz | 3.5 in | Compact UHF Range 2 |
Choose the AN000393A01 if:
Your APX NEXT operates only on UHF and you want an antenna shorter than the all-band whip.
Choose the AN000297A01 if:
Your APX NEXT operates on more than one band, or you work mutual aid across VHF, UHF and 700/800 systems. See the Motorola AN000297A01 All-Band Whip Antenna.
Choose the AN000296A01 if:
You operate only on a 700/800 MHz system and want the shortest antenna available. See the Motorola AN000296A01 700/800 MHz Stubby Antenna.
Single-Band UHF or All-Band: Which Is Right for You?
If every channel in your radio is UHF, a single-band antenna like the AN000393A01 gives you a shorter, lighter antenna than the 7.9-inch all-band whip. If your radio is programmed for VHF or 700/800 MHz channels as well, those channels need an antenna that covers them, so choose the AN000297A01 all-band whip.
Frequently Asked Questions

It is Motorola's 5.5-inch UHF whip antenna for the APX NEXT and APX NEXT XE. It covers 350 to 520 MHz.
What radios does the AN000393A01 fit?
It fits the Motorola APX NEXT and APX NEXT XE.
Will the AN000393A01 work on an APX 6000 or APX 8000?

No. The APX NEXT has its GPS receiver built into the radio, so the antenna does not need one.
