Gentex Announces New Ops-Core AMP Rail Mount with Vent Mode, Increasing User Comfort Without Sacrificing Communication

Gentex Corporation, a global leader in personal protection and situational awareness solutions for defense forces, emergency responders, and industrial personnel, announced today the launch of the new Ops-Core AMP Helmet Rail Mount with Vent Mode for its industry-leading AMP Communication Headset. Designed and developed directly with end-user input, this enhanced product preserves the trusted quality, form factor, adjustability, and durability of the original Helmet Rail Mount Kit while introducing enhanced airflow, comfort and stability.

The new AMP Helmet Rail Mount Kit with Vent Mode introduces a three-position system: Deployed, Vented, and Stowed. This configuration gives warfighters better control over comfort, ventilation, and communication capability in real time.

In the new Vent Mode position, the earcups shift slightly off the ears to improve airflow and relieve seal pressure while still allowing effective monitoring of communications. Importantly, Ops-Core Near Field Magnetic Induction (NFMI) Earplugs remain fully engaged in Vent Mode, providing increased noise reduction while preserving clear communications and 3D Hear-Through when used with NFMI-enabled Ops-Core headsets.

“Our customers operate in the world’s most demanding environments, and their feedback is crucial for innovation,” said Peter Harbeck, Segment Director – SOF at Gentex Corporation. “The AMP Helmet Rail Mount Kit with Vent Mode is a direct result of listening to operators who needed a better way to manage heat and comfort without losing communications. We’ve kept the same rock-solid durability and adjustability of the original design while adding an essential enhancement.”

The new rail mount maintains the same familiar form factor, world-class durability and rugged performance as the original AMP Rail Mount. It is designed to offer increased stability during dynamic movements and remains fully compatible with Ops-Core NFMI Earplugs for double hearing protection. The AMP Rail Mount with Vent Mode is available in three colors: tan 499, black, and ranger green.
