What is a full-duplex headset?
What is a full-duplex headset?
Full duplex means everyone on the link can talk and listen at the same time, just like a phone call. There is no push-to-talk button and no waiting for the channel to clear. Avcomm full-duplex Bluetooth headsets link up to 5 headsets for hands-free conversation in loud environments.
What is the difference between push-to-talk and full duplex?
What is the difference between push-to-talk and full duplex?
Push-to-talk (PTT) is how 2-way radios work: one person transmits at a time while everyone else listens. Full duplex is open, continuous conversation. Many crews use both: full-duplex Bluetooth to talk with the people around them, and PTT to reach dispatch or other crews on the radio. Our 2-way radio ready Bluetooth headsets do both in one headset.
Can I use a Bluetooth headset with my 2-way radio?
Can I use a Bluetooth headset with my 2-way radio?
Yes. Our 2-way radio ready Bluetooth headsets plug into your radio with a coil cord matched to your radio model. Press the PTT on the ear cup to transmit on the radio, while Bluetooth keeps you connected to your crew and your cell phone. Dual-radio versions handle two radios at once.

What is the difference between ANR and PNR aviation headsets?
What is the difference between ANR and PNR aviation headsets?
Passive noise reduction (PNR) headsets block noise with well-sealed ear cups and need no batteries. Active noise reduction (ANR) headsets add electronics that cancel low-frequency engine and prop noise for a quieter, less tiring flight. See our aviation headsets.
