Hirose 6-pin Quick Disconnect Adapter
This adapter connects a Hirose 6-pin quick-disconnect PTT or external speaker to a handheld radio. It is built for operators who use compatible Baofeng, Kenwood, Wouxun, AnyTone, BTECH, Rugged Radios, TYT or Digi-Talk models and need a secure, detachable audio link.
Mil-spec polymer construction
The body is moulded from high-strength mil-spec polymer to withstand field handling and repeated connect-disconnect cycles. This material choice is the single specification that determines whether the adapter survives daily strap friction, vibration and weather exposure.
Simple push-fit installation
The 2-pin plug seats directly into the radio accessory jack and the 6-pin socket accepts the Hirose connector with a positive click. The most common issue is forcing the 2-pin plug upside-down, which bends the radio jack pins; align the keyed shell before pressing.

Questions about this item
Will the Hirose 6-pin quick disconnect stay locked during active use?
The mil-spec polymer housing uses a spring-loaded latch that clicks into the radio's 2-pin jack, so the PTT or speaker cable cannot pull free while you move.
Does the adapter pass both audio and PTT signals through the single Hirose plug?
Yes — the 6-pin Hirose carries microphone audio, speaker audio and the push-to-talk line, so one connector handles transmit and receive.
How much clearance does the right-angle body need behind the radio?
The moulded elbow adds roughly 16 mm behind the Kenwood-style 2-pin port, so check that your battery pack or belt clip leaves that space.
