Hole-Mount Push-to-Talk Button with 48" Straight Cord - Rugged Radios
PTT-HM-SC
The Rugged Radios Hole-Mount Push-to-Talk Button with 48-Inch Straight Cord places the transmit control for a compatible intercom at a fixed, reachable location in the cockpit. It is useful in a custom dash or console when you want a dedicated push-to-talk button that stays in place during trail driving or race communication rather than a loose control hanging from the wiring.
The ABS housing mounts through a 5/8-inch hole, and the 4-foot high-bend-test straight cord terminates in an industry-standard 3-pin plug. Rugged lists the switch for one million operating cycles and identifies compatibility with several of its OFFROAD intercoms, including the RRP696 and RRP6100. Measure the cable path before drilling so the button can sit within reach while the wiring remains clear of heat, abrasion, and moving controls.
Includes:
- (1) Hole-mount push-to-talk button with 48-inch straight cable and 3-pin plug
