Push to Talk (PTT)

Push to Talk (PTT) for Controlled and Direct Communication

A Push to Talk (PTT) system allows you to operate a radio via an external activation button, without having to remove the radio from your pouch or vest. This ensures fast and controlled communication while keeping both hands free for your primary equipment.

Within this category, you will find PTT systems from Earmor and Z-Tactical. These units form the link between Walkie-Talkies and Headsets and are part of the broader category of Tactical Communication & Headsets.

Why choose a PTT system?

• Operation without holding the walkie-talkie
• Quick activation via external button
• More control while moving
• Compatible with tactical headsets

A PTT unit is usually attached to your vest, belt or plate carrier. By pressing the external button, you directly activate the transmit function of your radio. This means you don't have to reach for your device, which reduces reaction time and maintains focus during dynamic situations.

In combination with a suitable radio configuration, this creates an efficient communication system that is immediately ready for use.

Compatibility & Connections

PTT systems differ in terms of connector type and connection. Always check that the PTT is compatible with both your radio and your headset.

Technical features that often recur:

• Specific 2-pin or military connector
• Reinforced cable construction
• Clip or MOLLE attachment
• Robust push button

An incorrect connection can lead to noise or failure. It is therefore essential to check compatibility.

For safe placement during gameplay, a walkie-talkie can be carried in specialised Radio Pouches.

What can you find in this category?

• Standard PTT units
• Reinforced tactical models
• Compatible systems for various headsets
• Clip-on mounting solutions

PTT systems are suitable for players who want to integrate communication into their loadout in a controlled and efficient manner.

Frequently asked questions

What exactly does a PTT do?
A PTT activates the transmit function of your walkie-talkie via an external button.

Is a PTT mandatory when using a headset?
Not mandatory, but highly recommended for practical operation.

Does every PTT fit every walkie-talkie?
No, always check the type of connector and compatibility with your Walkie-talkie model. In our case, an Earmor PTT only fits an Earmor headset and a Z-Tactical PTT only fits a Z-Tactical Headset.

Also pay attention to the connection of your walkie-talkie. Does it have a Kenwood or Midland connection?

Can I combine a PTT with any headset?
Compatibility varies per connection. Check whether the PTT is suitable for your headsets.
