Headsets

Military headset for radio

A military or tactical headset is a device that is an active earphone with a microphone, equipped with a plug for connection to a radio station. Thanks to the headset, an operator can not only hear commands clearly and keep in touch with the unit, but also protect his hearing from the harmful effects of loud sounds.
Modern active headsets have a wide range of functions:

• noise reduction. Active and passive noise cancellation allows you to focus on important sounds and not be distracted by background noise;
• amplification of quiet sounds. The device allows you to hear footsteps, voices and other important cues that might be missed without a headset;
• water resistance. A characteristic that makes the headset resistant to rain and mud;
• connection to a walkie-talkie. Headset earpieces enable communication with other military personnel at a distance;
• helmet compatibility. Given the equipment used by the military, the design of the headsets allows them to be attached to the helmet, or worn comfortably under the helmet.

Questions and answers about active headsets

1. What is the difference between active headphones and active headsets? The first ones only provide hearing protection from loud noises, while the second ones also allow you to keep in touch thanks to a microphone and a walkie-talkie plug.
2. Who needs a headset for a military helmet? The device will be appropriate for those soldiers who are in noisy environments and need to communicate with each other — for artillery, mechanised units, tank crews and the like.
3. How do I choose an active headset? The choice is influenced by a number of factors, such as overall performance or compatibility with existing equipment. You should make sure that the device can be mounted on the helmet rails or is designed to be worn under a helmet (if it has ear defence). Also, the headset should be lightweight, ergonomic and sit comfortably on the head without restricting movements.
