ESCORT PASSPORT 8500 X50 B
RADAR DETECTOR AND LASER
DETECTOR WITH BRILLIANT BLUE
DISPLAY
-
The Passport 8500 has
been hailed as the most
revolutionary
radar/laser detector
ever. Forbes.com said,
"it might be the best
radar detector ever
made!" Popular Mechanics
called it "state of the
art." RadarTest.com
named it "The World's
Best!"
For more than 25 years
ESCORT has set
the radar detector
standard. Now, we're
raising the bar ...
again. Introducing the
all new Passport 8500
X50 radar and laser
detector - the most
advanced and
sophisticated detector
ever!
There's never been a
radar detector like the
Passport 8500 X50, and
it's available in your
choice of either a
brilliant blue display
or high-intensity red
display.

X-treme
Radar Range
The
Passport 8500 X50's new
"V-Tuned" radar receiver
provides extreme
detection range on all
police radar;
conventional and
"instant-on" radar,
including the new POP
mode radar threat,
X-Band, and up to 50%
more range than the
original Passport 8500
on the all-important K
and Ka bands. Digital
Signal Processing (DSP)
provides maximum range,
with minimum false
alarms
-
X-tremely
Quiet
Passport
8500 X50's patented
AutoSensitivity™ mode
intelligently
distinguishes real
threats from other known
sources of radar -
virtually eliminating
false alarms.
Conventional Highway and
City modes are also
provided.

New
High-Performance Laser
Protection
Passport
8500 X50's multiple
high-performance laser

(lidar) warning, with
superior off-axis
protection
-
The
Passport 8500 X50
provides 3 types of
meter displays: standard
bar graph, exclusive
ExpertMeter™, and our
new SpecDisplay™. In
ExpertMeter™ mode the
Passport 8500 X50 can
identify band and
relative signal strength
on up to radar 8 signals
simultaneously. Or,
choose our new
SpecDisplay™ and
Passport 8500 X50 will
show you the actual
frequency of the radar
signal.
Passport 8500 X50 is
ready to use right out
of the box. However, you
can also instantly
customize it for your
unique driving
preferences.
