Kenwood KHS-22 Behind-the-Head Headset: Secure, Open-Ear Comms Under Hats and Hard Hats
Behind-the-head band · Adjustable boom mic with windscreen · In-line PTT with clip · Single open-style earpiece · Kenwood K1 connector
The Kenwood KHS-22 is a behind-the-head two-way radio headset with an adjustable boom mic and an in-line push-to-talk (PTT). The band sits around the back of the head, so it stays secure under hats, helmets, or hard hats without an over-the-head strap, while the single open-style earpiece keeps one ear free for situational awareness. Browse more compatible audio and clips in our Kenwood Accessories collection.
Who it's for
Built for retail and hospitality supervisors, security and event staff, and facilities or maintenance crews who need clear comms and an open-ear fit while wearing headgear or moving hands-free. Pair it with a spare Kenwood KBP-5 AA Alkaline Refillable Battery Pack to keep radios running through long shifts.

Frequently Asked Questions
What radios is the Kenwood KHS-22 compatible with?
This KHS-22 listing is tagged for Kenwood radios including the TK-3400 and TK-3402, and it uses the standard Kenwood K1 connector found on TK Series, NX-P1200/NX-P1300 series, and PKT-23 radios. If you run a different Kenwood model, contact us before ordering and we'll confirm the correct fit.
Does the Kenwood KHS-22 work with the TK-3402?
Yes. This listing is tagged for the Kenwood TK-3402 (and TK-3400). For any other Kenwood model, contact us to confirm compatibility before you order.
How do you connect the KHS-22 to a Kenwood radio?
The headset plugs into the accessory port on a compatible Kenwood radio using its K1 connector, and you transmit using the in-line PTT. Contact our team to confirm the connector matches your exact radio model.
What is the difference between behind-the-head and over-the-head headsets?
A behind-the-head headset routes the band around the back of the head so it can be worn under hats, helmets, or hard hats. An over-the-head headset uses a top band resting on the crown. The KHS-22 is the behind-the-head style.
Is the Kenwood KHS-22 noise canceling?
The source listing doesn't specify noise-canceling performance. The boom mic includes a windscreen for clearer voice pickup, but we can't confirm an active noise-cancellation rating. Contact us and we'll verify the spec before you order.
