Kenwood KMC-45D Heavy Duty Speaker Microphone for Professional Two-Way Radios
The Kenwood KMC-45D is a rugged, professional-grade speaker microphone designed for demanding public safety and commercial applications. This heavy-duty accessory combines high-output audio, durable construction, and water-resistant design to deliver reliable communications in challenging operational environments including law enforcement, fire services, construction, and industrial settings.
Key Features
This speaker microphone features a large, high-output speaker that delivers clear, loud audio even in high-noise environments. The oversized push-to-talk button provides positive tactile feedback and can be easily operated while wearing gloves or in low-light conditions. A reinforced strain relief system at both the microphone body and radio connector protects the cable from damage due to repeated flexing and pulling during active use.
Water-Resistant Construction
The KMC-45D features water-resistant construction that protects internal components from rain, splashes, and moisture exposure during outdoor operations. Sealed speaker grilles and protective gaskets prevent water ingress while maintaining excellent audio quality, ensuring reliable performance in all-weather conditions and demanding work environments.
Professional Audio Performance
A high-quality electret condenser microphone captures clear voice transmissions with excellent intelligibility, while the powerful speaker delivers loud, crisp audio output for reliable reception in noisy environments. The front-firing speaker design directs audio toward the user for optimal clarity and reduced background noise interference.
Ergonomic Design
The contoured housing fits comfortably in the hand with an ergonomic grip that facilitates natural operation during extended use. A rotating clothing clip on the back allows secure attachment to uniforms, tactical gear, or belts with flexible positioning options. The balanced weight distribution prevents excessive pull on radio connections during movement.
Durable Cable Construction
The heavy-duty coiled cable extends when needed and retracts for convenient storage, preventing tangling and cable management issues. Reinforced conductor construction ensures reliable signal transmission even after thousands of extension and retraction cycles, making the KMC-45D suitable for high-use professional applications.
3.5mm Audio Jack
An integrated 3.5mm audio jack enables connection of optional earpieces for discreet audio monitoring when needed. This feature allows users to switch between speaker mode for normal operations and private listening mode for sensitive communications or surveillance applications without changing accessories.
Professional Applications
The KMC-45D is designed for law enforcement, fire services, emergency medical services, security operations, construction, manufacturing, warehousing, and other demanding professional applications where reliable audio communications are essential to operational success and personnel safety.
