Maximum Hearing Protection for Tactical Environments
Military and tactical environments routinely exceed safe noise thresholds, putting your hearing at serious risk. The 3M PELTOR ComTac VI NIB Hearing Defender is engineered to protect — the level-dependent digital audio circuit automatically compresses harmful noise to a safe decibel level while amplifying weak sounds to an audible level, keeping you aware of your surroundings without removing your protection.
Environmental Listening with "Talk Through" Technology
The ComTac VI's environmental listening feature detects and locates sound in real time. The "talk through" mode allows safe ambient audio to pass through while automatically blocking harmful noise peaks. An external mic captures outside sound and transmits it directly into the headset speaker — full situational awareness, zero hearing risk.
Mission Audio Profiles (MAP) — Five Optimized Listening Modes
The MAP function delivers five advanced ambient listening modes engineered for specific combat and combat-support scenarios:
-
Profile 1 — Observation: Optimized for stationary surveillance
-
Profile 2 — Patrol: Suppresses footstep, grass, and equipment movement noise
-
Profile 3 — Conversation: Filters frequencies outside normal speech range
-
Profile 4 — Comfort: Sustained noise reduction for vehicle or long-duration operations
-
Profile 5 — Mic Off: Disables environmental listening without powering down the headset
NIB — Natural Interaction Behavior
Automatically connects headsets within a 5–10 meter radius when loud background noise is detected. Up to 4 active team members can transmit, with up to 60 personnel listening simultaneously — no manual pairing required.
