The JPL Scout 300 Wired PTT Amplifier for Your Emergency Console
The JPL Scout 300 is an ergonomically designed push-to-talk amplifier, shaped like a pistol grip. It is created for emergency services, air traffic control, military purposes, and other secure, mission-critical communication environments. Key features include a trigger switch with selectable locking or momentary operation, an LED indicator showing microphone status (green for active, red for muted), and a thumb wheel for volume control. It utilizes a PJ-7 (2-prong) plug connection and is compatible with JPL & Poly Quick Disconnect (QD) wired headsets. The device is manufactured in South Korea and is TAA compliant.
Built to Handle 24/7 Emergency Dispatch
Emergency dispatch centers, known as Public Safety Answering Points (PSAPs) or Emergency Communication Centers (ECCs)s, are the critical “first of the first responders,” handling emergency and non-emergency calls, processing information using protocols, dispatching police, fire, and EMS, providing pre-arrival instructions, and managing radio traffic and technology like CAD and NG911.
JPL Scout 300 is Designed for Dispatch Centers and Emergency Personal
Console technology, such as CAD and NG911 equipment, is the core of communication centers, processing calls, improving location accuracy, and enhancing emergency response efficiency and safety. These systems are vital for handling calls, dispatching resources, and ensuring responders have the information they need.
Purpose-Built Design
Ergonomically designed push-to-talk amplifier created for emergency services, air traffic control tower operators, military purposes, and secure, mission-critical conversations like public safety dispatch and radio dispatch operations.
Push-to-Talk (PTT) or Push-to-Key (PTK) Functionality
A push-to-talk trigger switch design is taken from a pistol grip, with the finger naturally resting on the trigger for seamless activation. Pressing the trigger activates the microphone to transmit voice, and releasing it instantly mutes the call.
Selectable Trigger Operation
The trigger switch offers selectable locking or momentary operation. Momentary means you only transmit while pressing and holding the trigger, while the lockable option allows you to keep the call open without holding the trigger down. This can be changed using a supplied plastic screwdriver.
Status Indicator
An LED indicator illuminates green when the microphone is active and red when muted, providing clear visual cues.
Volume Control
It features a thumb wheel volume control that is neatly positioned, allowing adjustment of the call’s volume.
Headset Connectivity
It can be used with any JPL or Poly wired headset with the standard Quick Disconnect (QD) connection. It utilizes a PJ-7 (2-prong | 6-wire) plug connection that connects to your console.

JPL Scout 300 Headset Compatibility
The JPL Scout 300 has two primary connection points: one for the 2-prong console it’s plugged into and one for the headset. This allows users to choose their headset based on their wearing style and specific comfort needs, thanks to the Quick Disconnect feature. Users can easily disconnect from the bottom amp and walk away as needed. When returning, they simply reconnect and pick up the conversation right where they left off.
