UH 10 Headset Photo

Today as you respond to emergencies we respond to your need for serious communication equipment. Equipping your response equipment with one of our 3010 series intercoms, you can equip up to six (6) stations on board the apparatus (if more are needed we can offer a solution there also) so everyone riding will have both, excellent hearing protection from the siren and clear, easy to hear communications. We have changed the headset to make it more comfortable. We offer two models, the UH-10, with radio transmit (PTT), and the UH-20
with out radio transmit (monitor only).

Firecom Bone Conduction Headsets

Firecom Bone Conduction Headset Photo

Firecom's high quality bone conduction microphone is designed for use with our full range of intercom systems and portable, handheld radios. The microphone's unique design has a flat response across the radio spectrum, delivering speech quality many times greater than conventional bone conduction systems.

Firecom's bone conduction technology allows the user to transmit the sound vibrations produced by the vocal cords through the bones of the skull. A highly tuned sensor picks up these vibrations and translates them into an audio signal similar to what wuuld be produced by a standard microphone.

Firecom headsets, helmet kits and interfaces provide the necessary signal processing to address the distortion produced by the skull, delivering clear speech. The microphone reduces background noise and produces clear communication in ambient noise levels up to 120dB SPL.

Firecom Helmet Kit
