Motorola BDN6783B APX Radio Adapter – Threaded 3.5mm Surveillance Kit Port with PTT

Motorola BDN6783B APX Radio Adapter – Threaded 3.5mm Surveillance Kit Port with PTT

The Motorola BDN6783B APX Radio Adapter (also sold as the BDN6783A and BDN6783) is the genuine Motorola audio accessory adapter that adds a threaded 3.5mm accessory port to Motorola APX P25 portable radios. It attaches to the radio’s side accessory connector. You can then plug in Motorola 3.5mm surveillance kits, covert earpieces and receive-only earpieces directly, without a remote speaker mic. The adapter has its own built-in PTT button, so a listen-only earpiece becomes a complete covert setup. A quick-disconnect fitting lets you unplug the earpiece fast, and a port cover protects the 3.5mm jack when nothing is connected.

Plainclothes and undercover officers, SWAT and tactical teams, protective details and command staff use the BDN6783B to run 2-wire and 3-wire surveillance kits on APX 6000, APX 7000, APX 8000 and SRX 2200 radios.
