Product Overview
The 3M PELTOR ComTac V Neckband Hearing Defender system is engineered for operational personnel and serious shooters who require robust hearing protection without compromising situational awareness or headgear compatibility. This configuration integrates the proven auditory performance of the ComTac V platform with a low-profile neckband design, optimizing comfort and integration during extended field use. It functions to preserve critical environmental sounds while providing instantaneous attenuation of impulse noise, enhancing communication and operational efficiency in high-decibel environments.
Key Features
Neckband Form Factor
The low-profile neckband design mitigates interference with helmets, specialized headgear, or ballistic protection systems, ensuring ergonomic pressure distribution across the user’s head. This design facilitates prolonged wear without discomfort, making it suitable for extended operational deployments.
Advanced Situational Awareness (SFA)
The ComTac V system utilizes advanced electronics to provide clear amplification of ambient sounds, including speech and environmental cues, up to a safe listening level. This feature ensures critical auditory information is maintained, directly supporting operational decision-making and personnel safety.
Level-Dependent Hearing Protection
Integrated level-dependent functionality dynamically attenuates harmful impulse noises, such as gunfire, while preserving the user’s ability to hear lower-level ambient sounds and engage in face-to-face communication. This precision mitigates auditory damage without isolating the operator from their environment.
External Communication Integration
The headset is designed for seamless integration with external communication systems. Its robust audio interface ensures reliable and clear two-way communication in high-noise environments, supporting coordinated team operations.
Robust Construction & Ergonomics
Constructed for durability in demanding conditions, the ComTac V Neckband design is engineered to withstand rigorous operational use. Its ergonomic profile minimizes pressure points, contributing to user comfort during extended periods of wear.
Intuitive Interface
User-accessible controls are strategically positioned for efficient operation, even while wearing tactical gloves. This design consideration ensures rapid adjustment of volume and settings without compromising focus or requiring removal of the headset.
Optimized Power Management
The system incorporates efficient power management protocols to ensure extended operational life from its power source, providing consistent and reliable hearing protection and communication capabilities when required.
