The 3M™ PELTOR™ ComTac™ VIII Headset helps protect your hearing and can help promote auditory situational awareness and communication in challenging acoustical environments.
Some versions are equipped with a downlead cable for connection to a radio via a push-to-talk (PTT), and a noise cancelling speech microphone for communication in noise.
Key Features
- Environmental listening for auditory situational awareness
- Hearing protection to help protect from impulse and steady state noise
- Advanced listening mode featuring Mission Audio Profiles (MAP) to maximize audibility based on the acoustical environment
- Noise-cancelling speech microphone (IP68) for communication in noise (select models)
- Earplug mode to help maintain auditory situational awareness when used in combination with earplugs
- Soundscaping to help with radio communication speech intelligibility
- Tested in accordance with applicable sections of a variety of military and other standards
- 29db SNR

Laboratory Noise Attenuation Standard EN 352-1:2020
3M strongly recommends personal fit testing of hearing protectors. Research suggests that users may receive less noise reduction than indicated by the attenuation label value(s) on the packaging due to variation in fit, fitting skill, and motivation of the user. Refer to applicable regulations and guidance on how to adjust attenuation label value(s). In the absence of applicable regulations, it is recommended that the attenuation label value(s) be reduced to better estimate typical protection. The attenuation rating (SNR) was obtained with the device powered off.
