Avon Protection announces the launch of the Tactical Mask Communications (TMC) System, a communications solution for customers to interface between their headsets to the Avon series Air Purifying Respirator.

Tactical Mask Communications (TMC) system is designed for users of Avon Respiratory Protection Equipment who require a simple yet scalable Tactical Communications solution when 'masked up'.

Tactical Mask Communications (TMC) System

The TMC is simple to configure, install and use, with a range of connectors, press-to-talk units, and headsets

Designed to provide the user with clear and effective communications with wearing an Avon APR, the TMC system is compatible with most radios and tactical headsets. The TMC is simple to configure, install and use, with a range of connectors, press-to-talk units, and headsets, to meet any requirement and support operational readiness.

As a pioneer in the field of Respiratory Protection for First Responders and Military Personnel,  Avon Protection is proud to continue to grow their product range to reflect the real-world needs of their users with a system designed to help them further develop operational capability, while wearing their equipment in the harshest of environments.

Simple, reliable, and clear communications

Commenting on the development of the TMC system, Colin Horne, Product Manager, said: “Simple, reliable, and clear communications are key to success in any military and law enforcement operation, but historically, we’ve seen a lot of confusion and over-complication around Tactical Communications systems for APR users."

Colin Horne adds, “We are extremely excited to be bringing a fresh approach by launching a range of robust products which are simple to understand, easy to adopt but all focused on ensuring operators can maintain communications whether they are wearing a respirator or not.”

Commenting on the launch of the TMC system, Thomas Korb, Global Director of Product Management, at Avon Protection, said: “The new product launch of the Avon Tactical Mask Communications (TMC) system further reinforces our commitment to listen to the requirements of our customers by delivering a configurable communication offering that provides maximum reliability while meeting the ever-changing mission profiles of our user groups.”
