Technical Information
David Clark 09851P-17 is a 6-amp rated Single Pole Double Throw (SPDT) pushbutton switch for David Clark headsets and communications equipment. The 6A current rating accommodates higher-current switching applications compared to standard low-current signal switches — suitable for power switching, illumination control, or higher-power circuit routing in communications equipment. The SPDT configuration routes one input to either of two outputs depending on switch position. David Clark replacement pushbutton switches restore reliable switching function in headset and communications control applications where the original switch has worn contacts, sticking action, or electrical failure.
