Systems and methods for operating a communication device. The methods comprise: concealing the communication device and/or at least one cable in a ballistic wearable item (e.g., a ballistic vest) such that the communication device resides in a storage slot for a trauma plate, where the communication device comprises a frame having a cross-sectional profile that matches a cross-sectional profile of the trauma plate by a given amount (e.g., 75-100%); and performing communication operations by a radio module integrated with the frame of the communication device.

Communication systems with body worn plate design

A radio system includes a portable radio and at least one elongate mounting rail having spaced apart indentations therein. At least one sliding mount includes a mount body having a passageway therethrough and slidably receiving a corresponding elongate mounting rail. The mount body is coupled to the portable radio. At least one spring plunger is carried by the mount body and configured to engage at least one adjacent indentation in the elongate mounting rail.
