Motorola PMLN6766A
Tactical Boomless Temple Transducer
High-Performance Stealth Bone Conduction Headset
The Motorola PMLN6766A is a revolutionary tactical audio solution designed for elite operators who must maintain total situational awareness while receiving critical communications. Unlike traditional headsets that cover the ears, the Motorola PMLN6766A utilizes advanced temple transducers to convert radio signals into sound vibrations. These vibrations travel through the user's tissue and bone directly to the inner ear, leaving the ear canal completely unobstructed to hear surrounding environmental sounds, approaching footsteps, or verbal commands.
Engineered for high-intensity tactical environments, the Motorola PMLN6766A features a boomless design with microphones embedded directly into the headgear. This low-profile construction eliminates the snag hazards associated with traditional boom mics and allows for seamless integration under helmets, gas masks, and other protective equipment. By utilizing this bone conduction technology, the Motorola PMLN6766A provides clear, intelligible audio even in high-noise scenarios without compromising the operator's ability to remain alert to their physical surroundings.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Bone Conduction Technology: Transmits audio via vibrations through the temple, keeping ears open for maximum situational awareness.
-
Boomless Design: Integrated embedded microphones remove the need for a protruding mic arm, reducing snag hazards and improving comfort under helmets.
-
Superior Environmental Awareness: Allows the user to hear both 2-way radio traffic and 360-degree ambient sound simultaneously.
-
Low-Profile Fit: Optimized for use with tactical headgear, gas masks, and ballistic helmets without interfering with the seal or fit.
-
Ruggedized Construction: Built to military-grade standards to withstand the mechanical stress and environmental extremes of field operations.
-
Clear Voice Transmission: Embedded microphone technology is tuned to capture human speech while minimizing the pickup of background noise.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this plug directly into my APX radio? No. The PMLN6766A uses a specialized tactical 6-pin connector. It requires a tactical interface module, such as the PMLN6765A, to connect to your APX series portable radio.
Can I wear this with a gas mask or respirator? Yes. Because the PMLN6766A does not use a boom microphone or cover the ears, it is specifically designed to be compatible with CBRN equipment and protective masks.
Is the audio loud enough for high-noise environments? Because bone conduction bypasses the eardrum, the audio is often clearer in high-noise environments than standard earpieces. However, in extremely loud settings, users may wear earplugs to block external noise while still hearing the radio clearly through their bone structure.
