Wisycom has announced the immediate availability of its new MTP61 miniature multiband transmitter, the latest addition to its Symphony product line that offers a tuning range of 470 to 1260 MHz, and the company is also releasing the new LBC61 4+4 battery charger for use with the MTP61.
At just over two inches tall and just under two inches wide, and 3.1 ounces in weight, the design of the MTP61 is lightweight and comfortable for long-term use in applications that require discreet placement. It also operates with a standard 3.7-volt Lithium-ion battery with stated 10 hours of operating time.
“With this shipping announcement, audio professionals now have access to one of the industry’s most powerful transmitters, which is ideal for a range of applications from broadcast and film to live production,” says John Kowalski, vice president of Sales and Marketing, Wisycom, Inc. “In addition to the comfortability and compact design of the transmitter, the new LBC61 charger gives users an even wider range of flexibility with file sharing capabilities and expanded charging options.”
The MTP61 can be configured by operators directly through the module’s OLED display with front-panel navigation buttons for access to menus and shortcuts. Users can also utilize the Wisycom App to control the device, eliminating the need for network connectivity.
The company states that linear technology allows users to deploy the transmitters evenly on the spectrum, every 200 kHz. With high-density, software-selectable narrow-band filters, the digital signal processing allows for switching between wideband and narrow-band operation. Used together with “linear mode,” this function is designed to enable intermod-free frequency planning with as little as 200 kHz of channel spacing. Additionally, the integrated low-pass audio filter eliminates ultrasonic interference from devices such as range finders and motion sensors.
The transmitter also has an embedded recorder with integrated linear timecode decoder that makes it possible to record directly to an embedded industry rated microSD memory card. Simultaneous record and transmit functionality is also available, where applicable.
The LBC61 4+4 charger can charge up to eight LBP61 Lithium-ion batteries simultaneously, with four ports for MTP61 drop-in charging and four ports for standalone LBP61 battery charging. The latest charger offers two USB-C 3.2 Gen1 ports and an RJ45 10/100 Base Tx Ethernet port to download files from the MTP61 micro-SD card or interface with the Wisycom Manager software. It also has two 3.5 mm connectors for Linear Timecode Sync.
