Before reviewing the possible amplifier choices, please investigate what type of phone system your dispatch console runs on. It will either be a 4-wire or a 6-wire system. To determine this, consult your current operations manual or pull out the existing "two-prong adapter" plug-in and see how many rings are around each prong. A 4-wire system has a total of two rings, one on each prong. A 6-wire system has a total of four rings, two on each prong. From this determination, you can better understand the information provided below and decide which amplifier covers your headset requirements. (Note: Most emergency dispatch units run off of a 6-wire headset system.)

Please review the following selections and choose from depending on your requirements.

See the Headset Order Form for purchasing information

E4 Amplifier
The E4 Amplifier is an efficient, easy-to-use amplifier for any Starkey Headset or EarSet. A six-position slide switch makes telephone compatibility simple, while the E4's control panel puts the volume control, mute switch and headset/handset selection at your fingertips.

The E4 is powered by two "AA" batteries or with an AC adapter (with some phone systems, the amplifier may be powered by the phone.) A "low battery" indicator gives ample warning when the batteries are getting low. All connection jacks are clearly labeled, making installation a snap.

Cost: $140.00/each
