Single comm headset systems provide reliable transmit and receive audio with one device, most often a portable radio, while dual comm systems allow simultaneous input from two devices.
Single comm headset systems provide reliable transmit and receive audio with one device, most often a portable radio. Single-device traffic comes in stereo for maximum clarity. These systems offer operational modes for all high noise situations and protect hearing from impulse/gunfire noise and constant, high-decibel background noise.
A single comm headset provides the same high noise protection as a headset system, but will require a Push-to-Talk (PTT) assembly to integrate with a device or portable radio. Single comm headsets combine with single comm PTTs: Alpha MRK2 PTT and Delta Tactical PTT. The Liberator IV™ is a single comm (one radio) headset.
PTT OPTIONS
ALPHA MRK2 PTT
The single comm Alpha Push-to-Talk (APTT) is a complete line of submersible, compact push-to-talk assemblies that can be integrated with a variety of systems. The APTT comes standard with gas mask connectivity. The APTT is a smaller, subcompact push-to-talk (PTT) that offers various options such as cell phone connectivity, volume control, and remote PTT functionality. The APTT is an extremely durable PTT assembly manufactured utilizing a proprietary, sealed, reinforced single molded process for long lasting use. The APTT is available with 18” radio interface cable and 2-pin gas mask receptacle. The Alpha MRK2 PTT is a modernized U94 PTT.
DELTA TACTICAL PTT
The Delta Tactical PTT is a popular, single comm PTT which offers clear audio transmission in high noise environments. This PTT is a round, ambidextrous PTT, and it’s also known as the Hockey Puck PTT. The Delta Tactical PTT seamlessly integrates into the Liberator IV™ headset system, allowing operators to use portable radio systems or vehicle/aircraft communication systems. A robust, simple to use assembly, the Delta Tactical PTT has a recessed button so operators can lay prone without keying the radio. It also features a receptacle for a remote PTT switch. Assemblies can be retrofitted, replaced, or updated for existing comms products, including headsets and ear pieces.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES
GAS MASK COMPATIBILITY
GAS MASK INPUT & CABLES
The base model of the Alpha PTT comes standard with a gas mask input capability. If you have the Avon gas mask you can plug it into the Alpha PTT. The cable for the Alpha PTT needs to be purchased separately.
The base model of the Delta PTT does not come standard with a gas mask input. However, a gas mask input is available as an upgrade. If the Delta PTT upgrade is chosen, a cable is included in the package.
GAS MASK ADAPTER
The Gas Mask Adapter is an economical integration solution that connects easily to existing communications systems. The adapter can be left connected to the end user’s gas mask until needed. No modification to existing gas mask or communications accessories are required.
TWO-WIRE KIT FOR GASK MASK
The two wire kit is a standalone accessory allowing officers to wear a two-wire earpiece and have the ability to easily and clearly communicate through a gas mask. Simple installation of the gas mask cable permits information to be transmitted through the microphone on an Avon gas mask. This kit provides a quick transition from radio communications to seamless gas mask communications which allows the officer to transmit and listen with the same process as without the gas mask. The kit is available for a variety of radios and in left and right configurations.
VOLUME CONTROL
The Alpha PTT and Delta PTT offer a volume control knob as an upgrade option. This option allows the user to place a portable radio on the back or hip instead of the chest, and control volume with the PTT. By moving the radio to a different location, it opens up more room on the chest to place mag pouches or a trauma kit. In poor weather, it’s beneficial to have only the volume control exposed outside a rain coat, and to have the radio tucked away inside, where it’s protected from the elements.
CELL PHONE ATTACHMENT ALPHA PTT ONLY
This selection is only available on the Alpha PTT, and the option provides a hardwired cellphone cable.
