Analog intercoms
210 radiointerface
Two seats, one radio: a dual-headset, two-person radio-transmit intercom system with a single mobile radio interface port.
When this is the right product+
A driver and an officer who need to hear each other, hear the mobile radio, and both be able to key it — in a vehicle where a full digital intercom is more system than the job needs. Brush trucks, utilities, squads, and command vehicles land here regularly.
210 or 110+
The 210 is the two-position version: dual headset, two-person radio transmit. The 110 is the single-connection version at $270. If only one seat owns the radio, the 110 is the right buy.
Pricing and install+
The published FIRECOM 2024 retail list, effective May 1, 2024, shows $490 for the 210, part number 106-0271-10. Headsets, the radio interface cable for your specific radio, and install labor are separate. EFES quotes them together. Call (800) 504-2044.

Product overview
The 210 is the two-seat answer. It combines a single mobile radio interface port with a dual-headset, two-person radio-transmit intercom system, so a driver and an officer talk to each other, hear the mobile radio, and both key it — on 12V nominal power, from a box that mounts once and is then left alone.
That covers a lot of a fire department fleet. Brush trucks, utilities, squads, and command vehicles frequently have exactly two positions and exactly one radio, and putting a $1,450 digital intercom in them is buying capability nobody will use.
The limit is worth being explicit about. This is an analog module: one radio, no auxiliary device patching, no remote head, no wireless headset capacity. If the vehicle will need multiple radios, a cell phone patched into the crew audio, control at a second position, or wireless headsets, the 5000-Series digital intercom costs less than buying twice.
If only one position owns the radio, the 110 radio interface is the smaller and cheaper buy. Headsets come from the 51-Series wired headsets page, and the interface cable for your specific radio is on the FIRECOM parts and accessories page.
What the module does
Two positions, both able to transmit
The 210 does a narrow job well. The last item below is what it deliberately does not do.
Two-person radio transmit
Both positions can key the connected mobile radio. That is the difference from the 110, and it is the reason to spend the extra $220 at list.
Mobile radio interface port
Combines a single mobile radio interface port with the headset side, so the radio is keyed and heard from the headsets rather than from the dash.
12V nominal power
Runs from a 12V nominal power supply, which is what the vehicle already has. No separate power system to plan around.
Radio cable specified separately
The interface cable is specific to the radio. FIRECOM publishes cables for a long list of Bendix King, Harris, Icom, Kenwood, and Motorola mobile radios; send us the exact model and we will confirm the part.
Where the limit is
One radio, no auxiliary device connections, no remote head, no wireless headsets. If the vehicle will need any of that, buy the 5000-Series digital intercom instead of buying twice.
Driver and officer, one radio
The right size for most of the fleet that is not an engine.

FrequentlyAsked Questions
Before you request a quote
If the vehicle has two positions and one mobile radio, the 210 does the job for $490 at list against $1,450 for a 5200D. If it needs more than one radio, auxiliary device patching, a remote head, or wireless headsets, buy the digital intercom — the module will not grow into that.
Positions. The 210 is a dual-headset, two-person radio-transmit intercom system, so both seats talk to each other and both can key the radio. The 110 supports a single headset or base station connection. The 2024 retail list shows $490 and $270 respectively.
The interface cable is what makes that answer yes or no, and it is specific to the radio. FIRECOM publishes cables for a long list of Bendix King, Harris, Icom, Kenwood, and Motorola mobile radios. Send us the exact make and model and we will confirm the cable before anything ships.
Wired headsets from the 50-Series. Pick radio transmit or listen-only per position: a 51-Series model for a seat that keys the radio, a 52 or 54 for a seat that should hear it and nothing more. See 51-Series wired headsets.
Not to this module. Wireless capacity comes from a WB505R.V2 wireless base station connected to a 5x00D digital intercom. If wireless is on the roadmap, plan the digital system now rather than buying twice.
