Falconclaw PTT Cable – Kenwood 2-Pin

Falconclaw PTT Cable – Kenwood 2-Pin

The Falconclaw Kenwood 2-Pin PTT Cable is a lightweight 50cm radio downlead designed to connect the Falconclaw PTT to compatible handheld radios using the widely adopted Kenwood 2-pin connector. Commonly found across commercial and tactical handheld radios, this interface provides broad compatibility with selected Baofeng, Kenwood, Retevis and Wouxun models.

Designed around Falconclaw's modular communication platform, the interchangeable downlead system allows users to change compatible radio platforms without replacing the complete PTT. Simply select the appropriate Falconclaw radio cable for the radio being used.

Measuring 50cm (19.68in) and weighing approximately 20g, the Kenwood downlead provides a compact and lightweight connection between the Falconclaw PTT and compatible radio. It is an ideal option for users building a flexible communication setup around commonly available Kenwood-style 2-pin handheld radios.

Kenwood 2-Pin vs ICOM 2-Pin

Important: ICOM 2-pin radio connectors can look very similar to the Kenwood 2-pin interface, but Falconclaw states that the two are electrically different. They should not be treated as interchangeable.

If your radio uses the ICOM 2-pin standard, use the dedicated Falconclaw ICOM 2-Pin PTT Cable instead.

Designed for the Falconclaw PTT

The Kenwood 2-pin downlead is designed to connect directly to the Falconclaw PTT. Falconclaw's modular downlead architecture separates the radio connection from the PTT itself, making it possible to adapt the communication system to different compatible radios by changing the cable.

This provides a practical solution for users who operate multiple compatible handheld radios or expect to change radio platforms in the future.

50cm Lightweight Downlead

The cable measures 50cm (19.68 inches) and weighs only 20g, providing sufficient routing length between the radio and PTT while keeping unnecessary cable weight to a minimum.

For configurations requiring additional cable length, Falconclaw also offers an optional extension that adds another 50cm between the PTT and radio downlead.
