Listen LT-84-01

Description

Overview

The LT-84 ListenIR 2-channel transmitter-radiator (Pat. 9,712,246) from Listen Technologies provides venues, businesses, government agencies, and more with an affordable and easy-to-use assistive listening solution.

Offering twice the IR power and up to six times the coverage area of similar products, the LT-84 can transmit a clear, reliable signal across 2,787 square meters (30,000 square feet). This signal range ensures that users in any mid-sized space, from the boardroom to the courtroom and beyond, enjoy an uninterrupted audio performance.

The LT-84 is also the first infrared assistive listening system to feature expansion radiators (LA-141), which provide delay compensation to ensure that there are no signal cancellation dropouts. Up to four (4) expansion radiators (LA-141) can be added to the system to offer additional coverage (when mounted within 30.48 m [100 ft.] from the unit).

In addition, the LT-84 is the only two-channel transmitter-radiator that can transmit on up to four different frequencies (2.3 MHz, 2.8 MHz, 3.3 MHz, or 3.8 MHz). This flexibility in the field makes setup and operation even easier, while also eliminating the need to purchase separate, frequency-specific transmitter-radiator units.

With the included mounting hardware, and the flexible frequency selection and input connectivity, the LT-84 is an ideal way to add infrared assistive listening capabilities and ADA compliance to your business or venue.

Architectural Specs

The Infrared Transmitter/Radiator Combo shall be capable of broadcasting up to two (2) audio channels with the choice of four (4) mono carrier frequencies; 2.3, 2.8, 3.3 and 3.8 MHz. Channel carrier selections shall be set via a back panel rotary switches. The Transmitter/Radiator coverage area shall be up to 30,000 ft² (2787 m²) with LR-4200-IR/LR-5200-IR receivers or 7,500 ft² (697 m²) with LR-42/LR-44 receivers in single channel mode. The device shall have a timer that shuts off the carriers after 15 minutes when no audio is present at the inputs. The Transmitter/Radiator shall have a SNR of 60 dB or better and THD of less than 2%. The device shall have an audio frequency response of 63 Hz to 15 kHz, +/- 3db. The device shall have two (2) independent mixing audio inputs, one for each transmission channel. Each mixing input shall consist of one (1) 3.5 mm Microphone input, one (1) balanced Phoenix type input and one (1) unbalanced RCA stereo summing input. The device shall have independent channel audio processing with Limiting, Compression and Noise Gate as well as transmit level control and level indication via two (2) LEDs. The Transmitter/Radiator shall provide Power and RF signal for up to Four (4) Expansion Radiators over a single CAT-5e cable. The LT-84 is specified.
