JUMA Communications, the UK-based specialist distributor of professional audio accessories and communication solutions, has announced a new distribution partnership with Swedish hearing protection and communications specialist Voxear Technologies AB.
The agreement will bring Voxear Protec, the company’s award-winning EN352-certified Bluetooth in-ear hearing protection system, to JUMA’s dealer network.
The product has been independently verified to meet the requirements of professional and industrial environments where both certified hearing protection and reliable operational communication are essential.
Designed for PPE-intensive workplaces
Voxear Protect has been developed for users who require certified hearing protection with ambient listening capability but are unable to wear conventional over-ear hearing defenders alongside other personal protective equipment, including face masks, safety eyewear and helmets.
The in-ear system combines hearing protection with wireless Bluetooth connectivity, enabling users to communicate comfortably while eliminating the need for cables.
Key features include noise attenuation up to SNR35, IP67-rated earphones, multipoint Bluetooth pairing, physical control buttons and up to 40 hours of connected use via the supplied charging case.
Compatible with communication platforms
JUMA has completed extensive compatibility testing, confirming that Voxear Protect integrates with the Vokkero Guardian full-duplex communication system and the company’s JBD2 Bluetooth dongle range.
The system also works natively with Android and iOS devices, supporting hands-free voice calls and multimedia control.
For organisations using Mission Critical Services (MCX) and Push-to-Talk over Cellular (PoC) applications, Voxear Protect also offers integration with platforms including GroupTalk, Zello and Cryptify, with additional application support already under development.
Dealer training planned
Voxear Protect is designed for professionals working in noisy, PPE-intensive environments, including the industrial, manufacturing and construction sectors.
JUMA Communications will host dedicated product training sessions for dealers over the coming weeks and is inviting interested dealers to contact the company for further information or to discuss the product ahead of the training programme.
Richard Cheung, Sales and Marketing Director at JUMA Communications, said: “Voxear Protect addresses a clear gap in the market. For dealers, this is a strong addition to the portfolio because it opens conversations beyond traditional radio accessories.
“The product sits at the intersection of hearing protection, Bluetooth connectivity and operational communication, which is exactly where many customer requirements are heading.”
