Product overview
The Firecom FH-52 and UH-52 wired headsets deliver all the benefits of hands-free, full-duplex communication with your crew. Operating with a stand-alone intercom system or integrated with a mobile radio, the flexible design brings all crew members into constant communication.
Both models have PTT intercom with listen-only radio. The user hears the radio and talks on the intercom with a push-and-hold transmit button. The PTT button requires a solid push, eliminating accidental transmissions. The 52 does not transmit on the radio at any position.
UH-52 is the under-helmet model, with a behind-the-head band and adjustable over-head strap that easily accommodates use with helmets. FH-52 is over-the-head, with a broad padded headband that remains comfortable for hours of wear. UH-52 lists at $360 and FH-52 at $355. Both have dual ear muffs with a 24dB noise reduction rating (NRR).
For positions that transmit on the radio, see the FH-51 and UH-51. For push-on/push-off intercom, see the FH-54 and UH-54. These connect through a 5000D Series Digital Intercom or a 210 Radio Intercom.
