Background of Item: Police is seeking to procure Kits to equip its Motorcycle Officers to continue to safely protect and serve the residents of the City. Police's Traffic Enforcement Detail will utilize these new Kits to replace the existing Kits in order to be compatible to the new radio system that the Police acquired from Harris Corporation. The Kits are designed for the officer needing a helmet headset to work with his motor -mounted radio which allows the user to both transmit and receive audio transmissions. Mobile radio transmissions using the headset are activated by a handlebar mounted push -to -talk ("PTT") switch. A second PTT switch at the handlebars allows activation of the motorcycle's siren PA system. As a result, Officers also have the ability to broadcast from the helmet microphone to direct traffic without removing their hands from the handlebars. At all points, the Kits do not require any cables that tether the Officer to the motor. The Kits are the only product on the market that offers a wireless connection, Bluetooth connectivity, and pairing with the "truck -mounted" radio in the motorcycles. PVP was the first to design and release a wireless system that eliminated the cables between the officer and their motorcycle more than five years ago. Accordingly, the Kits are fully patent protected under United States Patents 5,790,947; 7,062,301 and 7,203,525.
