Pliant Technologies, a leading provider of professional wireless intercom solutions, will highlight a variety of its new solutions at IBC 2024 (Stand 10.C53). This includes the brand's award-winning CRP-C12 Compact Radio Pack, a newly designed compact Radio Pack (RP) that was created specifically for use with any CrewCom or CrewCom CB2 system. Additionally, Pliant will present its new CrewWare 2.0 software update, along with its updated SmartBoom LITE Headset, the new PHS-IEHU miniature in-ear style headset and a new PAC-RTM-SMU Universal Single RT Mounting Bracket.
The CRP-C12 is one of the industry's smallest, fully featured, wireless professional intercom belt packs, measuring approximately 3.5 in. x 3.5 in (9 cm x 9 cm), while weighing just under 9 oz./ 255 g. The new compact RP is available in 2.4GHz (worldwide) and 900MHz (where legal). Although small in stature (at least 25 percent smaller in size and 30 percent lighter than most belt packs in use today), the CRP-C12 does not compromise on performance, as it is fully featured and includes support for up to two assignable conferences with a simultaneous dual listen option. It is fully compatible with both the CrewCom and CB2 wireless intercom systems. For further customization, it also includes two assignable function buttons that can be configured via a user profile for functions such as stage announce, call, or trigger of contact closures.
CRP-C12 features an informational sunlight-readable backlit LCD display, along with easy-to-access, top-mounted A/B channel and talk buttons, dual-function buttons, and easily accessible volume control. It also includes a compact 6-pin Male Mini XLR (TA6M) headset connector, a USB-C charging, firmware and pairing port, and is compatible with the Pliant PBT-RPC-66 6-Bay Drop-In Charger via an optional easy-to-use adapter. It uses the PBT-LIP-01 Lithium Polymer CrewCom Battery, the same used in current Pliant Radio Packs.
CrewWare 2.0 marks a substantial update to the CrewCom family. CrewWare is Pliant's revolutionary software tool created specifically for CrewCom system configuration, device control, and live monitoring. This enhanced software makes major advancements in setup, control, and monitoring, and includes the additions of multi-platform (Mac and PC), multi-client, multi-system support along with many graphical user interface (GUI) improvements. These latest advancements result in a straightforward and clean interface that simplifies accessing a CrewCom system from anywhere in the world from any type of device with access to a browser.
The updated SmartBoom LITE Headset includes enhancements to the headset's existing list of renowned features for improved flexibility, stability, and a more comfortable fit. Among the new features is a new field-replaceable cable and a newly designed swivel earcup. The updated SmartBoom LITE headset also features exceptional audio quality. The innovative headset features the SmartBoom muting feature, which allows the adjustable microphone boom to act as an on/off switch for quick muting. It also incorporates a closed back, supra-aural on-ear design, and a single-ear lightweight form factor that provides enhanced acoustic isolation. The ambidextrous, swiveling mic boom is flexible and has a dynamic noise-cancelling cardioid microphone optimized for voice communications and outstanding audio quality.
The PHS-IEHU in-ear headset utilizes silicone ear concha locks and earbuds for either left ear or right ear orientation. The new headset also allows for the use of custom ear molds designed specifically for the individual user's ear from custom ear mold manufacturers Coda Room Audio and Sensaphonics. With mobility in mind, the PHS-IEHU features an unobtrusive, miniature electret microphone and windscreen with a small flexible boom. An offering of models based on various connectivity allows for use with most industry-standard intercom beltpacks via 4-pin or 5-pin XLR connections as well as 6-pin female Mini XLR connectivity. In addition, there is also an option for dual 3.5mm connectivity allowing for its use with MicroCom M or MicroCom XR models. An optional PTT (Push-to-Talk) button will also be available for applications where external remote momentary talk on/off operation is required.
The PAC-RTM-SMU Universal Single RT Mounting Bracket was developed for maximum adaptability and flexibility, not only allowing the transceiver to be mounted in four different orientations but also the ability to use any industry-standard mounting mechanism. This innovative bracket solution supports a wide variety of thread sizes and mounting options including Manfrotto-style Hex, 1/4"-20, 5/8"-27 and 3/8"-16 mount thread sizes.
