Motorola NNTN8295A Wireless Earbud with 45" Cord & Inline Mic for NTN2571B and NNTN8127B PTT Pods
The Motorola NNTN8295A (also sold as the NNTN8295) is a genuine Motorola 1-wire wireless earbud with a long 45-inch (116 cm) cord and an inline microphone. It’s part of Motorola’s wireless radio audio system: the earbud plugs into a small wireless push-to-talk (PTT) pod, and the pod connects to your Motorola MOTOTRBO, APX, SL or XTS radio over Bluetooth. The long cord lets you clip the PTT pod to your belt or waistband, where it’s out of sight and easy to reach. Only the earbud’s thin cord runs up to your ear, and there’s no cable between you and your radio. Three ear tip sizes come in the box for a secure, comfortable fit.
Motorola designed the NNTN8295A for business users in professional attire and public safety users working undercover: plainclothes officers, detectives, executive protection, hotel and casino security, retail loss prevention and event staff.
How the NNTN8295A Works
The NNTN8295A is one part of a three-part wireless system:
- Your radio: Needs Bluetooth. That’s built in on SL radios, enabled internally on Bluetooth-ready MOTOTRBO radios, an internal option board on APX radios, or an adapter on other radios.
- Wireless PTT pod: Pairs with your radio over Bluetooth, provides the push-to-talk button and powers the earbud. Motorola’s NNTN8127B pod has a 33-foot range and 128-bit encryption.
- NNTN8295A earbud: Plugs into the pod. You hear radio traffic in your ear and talk through the inline mic.
To set it up:
- Make sure your radio is Bluetooth-ready (see the requirements below).
- Pair the PTT pod with your radio.
- Plug the NNTN8295A into the pod.
- Clip the pod to your belt or waistband, run the cord up under your shirt or jacket, and insert the earbud with the right ear tip.
- Press the pod’s PTT and speak to transmit.
Why Choose the 45" Cord?
- Pod at your waist: The long cord reaches from a belt-clipped pod to your ear.
- Hidden under clothing: Run the thin cord under a shirt or jacket so it can’t be seen.
- Natural PTT position: Reach the pod at your waist without raising your hand to your chest.
- No cord to the radio: Keep the radio on your belt, in a bag or in a vehicle within range.
For a pod clipped to your lapel or shirt pocket, choose the short-cord NNTN8294A instead.
