Motorola BDN6676D
3.5mm Threaded Audio Adapter
Quick-Disconnect Interface with Integrated PTT for Legacy Portables
The Motorola BDN6676D is a mission-critical audio adapter designed to bridge legacy radio platforms with modern, professional-grade discrete accessories. Featuring a 3.5mm threaded jack, this adapter provides a secure, vibration-proof connection for earpieces and surveillance kits, such as the RLN5313 series. By attaching directly to the radio’s side external accessory connector, the Motorola BDN6676D ensures that high-stakes audio remains tethered to the operator even during intense physical movement or tactical maneuvers. The Motorola BDN6676D is the updated version of the Motorla BDN6676C, Motorola BDN6676B, Motorola BDN6676A, and Motorola BDN6676.
Equipped with a built-in Push-To-Talk (PTT) button, the adapter allows users to communicate without having to reach for the radio chassis, improving response times and operational efficiency. The integrated quick-disconnect latch facilitates rapid accessory changes in the field, while the CSA intrinsic safety rating makes it suitable for hazardous environments where equipment reliability is non-negotiable. Whether for undercover surveillance or standard patrol, the Motorola BDN6676D is the essential link for professional audio integration.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this adapter work with standard 3.5mm headphones? While a standard 3.5mm jack may fit, this adapter is designed for threaded professional accessories. Non-threaded plugs may not maintain a stable connection or activate the microphone circuit properly.
Is this adapter compatible with APX radios? No. APX series radios use a different accessory connector. For APX models, the BDN6783B is the appropriate threaded 3.5mm adapter.
Do I need to program the radio to use the PTT on the adapter? No. The adapter is plug-and-play; the radio automatically detects the accessory and enables the PTT functionality on the adapter housing.
