Description
3M™ PELTOR™ ComTac™ VIII is the latest in the established PELTOR product line of tactical headsets that provides hearing protection, environmental listening, and connectivity to communication solutions.
The 3M™ PELTOR™ ComTac™ VIII Headset helps protect your hearing and can help promote auditory situational awareness and communication in challenging acoustical environments. Some versions are equipped with a downlead cable for connection to a radio via a push-to-talk (PTT), and a noise cancelling speech microphone for communication in noise.
MISSION AUDIO PROFILES
Observation
For maximum auditory awareness and sound detection in a quiet environment when the user is still.
Patrolling
For high situational awareness when walking in a low-noise environment. High volume with reduced high frequencies to limit sounds such as footsteps on gravel, grass moving under feet, or equipment moving on body
Conversation
Intended to closely approximate open ear listening and sound localization. Ideal setting for extended use when other modes are not needed.
Comfort
For comfort in a noisy environment. Intended for use in periods of loud noise produced by tactical vehicles or air transport, where environmental listening is not prioritized over communications
Ambient Listening Off
For maximum sound reduction when operating in high noise and monitoring a radio.
FEATURES
Soundscaping to help with radio communication speech intelligibility
Earplug mode to help maintain auditory situational awareness when used in combination with earplugs
Advanced listening mode featuring Mission Audio Profiles (MAP) to maximize audibility based on the acoustical environment
Noise-cancelling speech microphone (IP68) for communication in noise (select models)
Environmental listening for auditory situational awareness
Hearing protection to help protect from impulse and steady state noise
Tested in accordance with applicable sections of a variety of military and other standards
