FAQ
Does CavCom offer high-fidelity acoustic filters with your electronic earsets?
Yes, just like our complete line of filtered hearing protectors, most of CavCom‘s radio-monitoring/listening earsets are available with acoustic filters that you can tailor to your workplace noise levels. Many occupational noise exposures are under 95 dBA, and require 10 dB or less effective noise reduction. Too much protection, or "overprotection," occurs when a hearing protector reduces sounds to such low levels that it's difficult for the wearer to understand conversations and/or hear important workplace and warning sounds around them. CavCom‘s advanced acoustic filter technology is designed to provide appropriate protection, optimal comfort, and to maintain natural hearing of speech and other important sounds in the workplace.
