Professional DB26 Hands-Free In-Vehicle Audio & PTT Interface Cable Kit
Genuine Hytera 5-meter vehicular breakout cable kit connecting rear DB26 mobile radio ports to visor microphones, external speakers, and Push-To-Talk foot switches.
The Hytera POA117 (catalog part POA117) is an authentic original equipment manufacturer (OEM) commercial in-vehicle audio interface cable kit engineered for Hytera mobile two-way radios. Designed to facilitate safe, distraction-free voice operations in commercial vehicles, fleet trucks, public safety cruisers, and dispatch environments, this comprehensive 5-meter (16.4 ft) breakout harness connects directly to the transceiver’s rear DB26 accessory connector. It bridges the mobile radio with hands-free audio peripherals, enabling operators to transmit and receive clearly without taking their hands off the steering wheel or machinery controls.
Engineered for seamless fleet integration, the Hytera POA117 splits the 26-pin accessory interface into three dedicated, color-coded 3.5mm connection leads: a 3.5mm plug for external foot-operated PTT pedals (such as the POA85) or remote palm switches (POA118), a 3.5mm socket for overhead vehicle sun-visor microphones (such as the POA76 or POA77), and a 3.5mm socket for amplified external cab speakers (such as the SM09S2). Operating under commercial FCC Licensing standards, this heavy-duty shielded cable harness provides crystal-clear audio transmission, complies with hands-free driving safety laws, and delivers long-term durability across Hytera HM and MD digital mobile radio fleets.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the primary purpose of the Hytera POA117 cable kit?
The Hytera POA117 is an all-in-one vehicle integration harness. It connects to the rear DB26 accessory port of compatible Hytera mobile transceivers and branches out to provide individual connections for a sun visor microphone, an external speaker, and a Push-To-Talk foot pedal or remote switch.
Are the visor microphone, external speaker, and foot switch included with the POA117?
No. The POA117 is the specialized 5-meter interface breakout cable kit. The peripheral accessories—such as the POA85 foot pedal, POA77 visor microphone, and SM09S2 external speaker—are separate components that connect into this harness.
Which Hytera mobile transceivers feature the DB26 rear accessory connector?
The POA117 is compatible with Hytera commercial mobile transceivers equipped with the standard rear DB26 accessory port, including the HM782, HM785, MD782i, MD785i, MD652i, MD655, MT680, and MT680PLUS.
How do the three breakout leads connect?
The 5-meter harness splits into three designated 3.5mm leads at the cabin termination:
-
3.5mm plug for the POA85 foot pedal or POA118 hand PTT.
-
3.5mm socket for the POA76 or POA77 sun visor directional microphone.
-
3.5mm socket for the SM09S2 high-output external speaker.
Why is a hands-free kit recommended for commercial fleet vehicles?
Hands-free kits allow vehicle operators to communicate over two-way radio channels without handling a palm microphone, ensuring compliance with commercial distracted driving regulations and enhancing overall operator safety on public roadways and job sites.
