Headsets for control centre desks, air traffic control & aircraft handling
Headsets for control centre desks, air traffic control & aircraft handling
Lightweight headsets for control centres and emergency call centres or for workstations in air traffic control or for communication in the tower. You will also find our headsets for aircraft handling here.
Communication you can rely on 100%. Our headsets, desktop microphones and hand-held microphones are specially and individually adapted to your VCS system (Voice Communication System). Our devices are also available for digital applications with USB plugs.
In control centres, our headsets are worn for long periods of time, especially in emergencies, disasters and major incidents. That is why, in addition to the functional side, our main focus is on wearing comfort for long working days and the highest quality for use in safety-critical areas.

wireless headsets for air traffic control
Brandnew: JPL Scout 3100 1-Channel
This is a replacement product for the Plantronics CA22, CA12, and Imtradex WL-DECT models, which have been tried and tested in control centers for many years. It is a wireless headset system with PTT transmit button function for radio applications.
The JPL Scout 3100 is a wireless PTT DECT system that, like the Poly CA22 SC, is single-channel, meaning that the user hears a signal, e.g., telephone or radio, through the headset speaker, which is reproduced on one or both sides (monaural or binaural).
The Scout 3100 base station has a charging compartment for the handheld unit with a large pistol grip transmit button. Any headset can be connected via the QD (Quick Disconnect) connector. The station not only enables wireless telephony, but also radio communication with a wireless transmit button function. A second battery is included in the scope of delivery, which is charged in the charging station parallel to the handset. This ensures round-the-clock operation seven days a week. In short: the headset is always ready for use around the clock. This is an important aid in facilitating communication, especially in the event of a disaster.
The JPL Scout 3100 has an analog RJ45 connection socket, for which we can supply various analog connection cables with plugs, such as FAA/PJ7, segment plugs, or Lemosa. In addition, it is equipped with a USB micro socket, so that connection to a digital interface is possible using a USB micro to USB-A adapter cable.

Noise-canceling headset for aircraft handling
Headset for ramp agents for use in aircraft handling (e.g., for communication between pilots and ground personnel, pushback of aircraft on the tarmac, and maintenance work on the ground). Pushback operations are dangerous. Loud background noise makes communication difficult during these tasks. Clear communication is essential for the safety of ground personnel and the safe movement of the aircraft. This headset ensures the necessary precise and clear communication.
The adjustable headband is made of corrosion-resistant, chrome-plated steel. Soft ear cushions guarantee exceptional comfort even when worn for long periods of time and offer passive noise reduction of 23 dB (NRR). There is a small PTT (push-to-talk) button on the ear cup. In addition, an ergonomically shaped in-line PTT transmit button is provided for easier operation, even when wearing gloves.
The flexible microphone boom arm can be moved 270 degrees, allowing the microphone to be positioned on either the right or left side. The microphone is of course also equipped with noise cancellation, so that your speech is always transmitted clearly and intelligibly.
The headset is available in 2 versions:
-Version 1 with 10-meter straight cable with inline PTT and jack plug
Item no.: HS-109-11
-Version 2 with coiled cable with inline PTT and jack plug
Item no.: HS-109-12
