When operating in very noisy environments these headsets not only make it easier to hear clearly, but more importantly, offer protection from hearing damage. After decades as the premier aircraft headset manufacturing company in the world, Telex has produced professional headsets with technology originally developed for use in aircraft cockpits. Whether the application is communication (together with ear protection) in a bottling plant, a steel mill, or other noisy industry, or broadcasting from motor racing trackside or open football commentary box, these units will provide the specialist answer.

A range of spares and accessories, including windscreens, hygiene covers, and ear cushions are also available. See RTS TELEX HEADPHONE/HEADSET ACCESSORIES
