Pliant CRT-2400 2.4GHz Transceiver

$0.00

The Pliant CRT-2400 is a 2.4 GHz radio transceiver designed to function as an access point for the Pliant CrewCom wireless intercom system. It establishes RF communication with CrewCom radio packs, extending wireless coverage for professional productions in demanding environments like broadcast, live events, and theater.

The transceiver connects to a CrewCom Control Unit via the proprietary CrewNet network, which can operate over both copper and single-mode fiber. For expanded coverage over a wider area, multiple CRT-2400 units can be daisy-chained.

It features two operating modes: Normal Mode, which supports up to six radio packs, and a high-capacity High Density Mode for up to 32 radio packs. The CRT-2400 can be powered via its CrewNet connection or by an optional external 48VDC power supply.

About the Pliant CRT-2400 2.4GHz Transceiver

The Pliant CRT-2400 is a professional 2.4 GHz wireless transceiver unit that functions as the core communication link within the Pliant CrewCom wireless intercom ecosystem. Designed for demanding film, television, broadcast, and live event production environments, this device provides reliable, digital full-duplex communication between a base station and bodypack user units or between multiple bodypacks in a mesh network. Operating in the globally available 2.4 GHz ISM band, it utilizes advanced frequency-hopping spread spectrum (FHSS) technology and robust digital modulation to deliver clear, low-latency audio while effectively avoiding interference from other wireless devices common on crowded production sets. The transceiver is a critical component that enables the system's flexibility, allowing crew members untethered mobility without sacrificing audio quality or connection stability.

The unit is engineered for both belt-pack use and easy integration into equipment racks or carts via optional accessories. It features an intuitive interface with a high-visibility OLED display for monitoring channel status, battery life, RF signal strength, and system settings. Communication is full-duplex, allowing for natural, simultaneous conversation as if on a traditional wired partyline. Advanced system management features include the ability to create multiple, private talk groups, adjustable audio mixing, and robust encryption to secure sensitive production communications. The transceiver can be powered by internal rechargeable batteries for all-day operation or via external DC power, ensuring it remains operational throughout the longest production days.

Built to the rugged standards required for location work, the CRT-2400 has a durable, ergonomic housing designed to withstand the physical demands of a fast-paced set. For production sound mixers, stage managers, and broadcast engineers, the Pliant CRT-2400 Transceiver represents a significant advancement in wireless intercom technology. It provides the freedom of wireless connectivity with the reliability, audio clarity, and system intelligence needed for critical, real-time communication among directors, camera operators, lighting technicians, and other essential crew members, thereby enhancing coordination and efficiency on any production.
