Description: This is the single frequency, FCC approved version of the ComTac VI, 915.5 MHz NIB headset. All customers can purchase this version of the ComTac VI.U.S Federal Government clients can also purchase a dual frequency NIB headset that is not FCC approved as it offers both 915.5 MHz (for use in North America, Australia, and New Zealand) and 864 MHz (for use in Europe). Please see the following product page for this dual frequency version: *This is the hearing defender version of the ComTac™ VI featuring NIB short range communication only, no downlead for external comms. This headset is NOT compatible with Peltors Y-Cable Harness to convert to a radio communication compatible: * HEAR THE DIFFERENCEThe 3M™ PELTOR™ ComTac™ VI has new omni-directional microphones and high fidelity speakers with greater sensitivity to help replicate sound more clearly and accurately. The new digital signal processing circuitry and transmit microphone are designed to help improve speech intelligibility and the environmental listening function’s ability to detect and locate sound from previous generations of the platform. The transmit microphone has been redesigned and embedded with patented 3M close cell foam and delivers improved noise cancelling transmission in high noise and wind while also improving dust and water ingress protection.ENVIRONMENTAL LISTENINGThe environmental listening feature, also known as “talk-through” is a means of allowing safe audio sounds to bypass the individual hearing protection electronically while still helping protect against harmful noises. This is accomplished with 3M’s proprietary digital audio circuit integrated into the headset. A microphone receives the sounds outside of the headset and transmits them to a speaker inside of the headset. The level-dependent digital audio circuit senses noise levels above the desired threshold and compresses them to a safe decibel level or amplifies weak sounds to an audible level.Sound detection. Sound identification. Sound localization. Speech communications.All important components of auditory situational awareness, impacting Warfighter efficiency and safety.MISSION AUDIO PROFILES (MAP)The 3M™ PELTOR™ ComTac™ VI offers a new way to adjust the auditory settings of your headset for your mission. Traditionally, a headset has a set frequency response, and the operator can only increase or decrease the volume. The MAP function provides new advanced ambient listening modes that allow access to a variety of gain settings, but with frequency shaping, to enhance auditory performance in five conditions. The MAP Profiles have been designed with a variety of combat and combat support operations in mind.Mission Audio Profile 1: ObservationObservation Highest volume and widest frequency response to maximize hearing when the user is still (overwatch, hide spot, stop to listen, etc).Mission Audio Profile 2: PatrolPatrol High volume with reduced high frequencies to limit sounds such as footsteps on gravel, grass moving under feet, equipment moving on body.Mission Audio Profile 3: ConversationMaximizes the frequencies important for face-to-face communications while lowering the frequencies outside of the average speech band.Mission Audio Profile 4: ComfortLow volume and narrow frequency response to be used when in noise for long periods of time (tactical vehicle, air transport) where environmental listening is not prioritized over communications and overall comfort.NATURAL INTERACTION BEHAVIOUR (NIB)NIB enables short-range, headset-to-headset communication in high noise environments, without the use of an external communications radio. The NIB function allows for 4 team members to speak simultaneously, and over 60 people within a 10 meter radius to listen at any given time. Audio transmit is activated by either a voice activated switch (VOX) for hands free operations or by push-to-talk. The VOX switch is adaptive, meaning the threshold to activate will adjust automatically to the noise environment. To help reduce user burden, a tactile button has been added to the left ear cup that allows the user to easily turn on or off the function / and switch from VOX to PTT settings.OPTIMIZED DESIGNThe ear cup has been designed to help provide the maximum amount of attenuation while limiting the thickness of the cup to a ½ inch at the top (for compatibility with mid and full cut ballistic helmets. At the bottom, the ear cup is contoured to help cheek-to-stock weld for weapons sighting and a second microphone port is provided for connection to oxygen systems (HAHO/HALO operations) and 3M Scott FRR Respirator.
