BLC-201 Field Telephone

The BLC-201 Field Telephone is a rugged, lightweight and waterproof analogue telephone set designed according to military requirements and suitable for connection to manual (magneto) or automatic 2-wire switchboards, to a similar telephone or directly to the public telephone network (PSTN).
The telephone electronics is based on DSP technology, using a high efficiency electronic ring generator for low power consumption and long battery life and operates in Common Battery (CB), Common Battery Signaling (CBS) or Local Battery (LB) modes.
When operating in LB or CBS modes, the BLC-201 Field Telephone is powered by a pack of four ‘C’ size (IEC-LR14) Ni-MH rechargeable or alkaline battery cells. Batteries are not required in CB mode.

A slim and lightweight military standard handset with push-to-talk switch allows easy operation by personnel even when wearing helmet.
Silent calls are allowed with extra microphone amplification by selecting ‘Whisper’ mode operation.
