Phonak Roger BaseStation Transmitter for Roger Earpiece

Built for the sound cart or an equipment rack, the Phonak Roger BaseStation is the stationary transmitter of the Roger Earpiece System, sending a wired audio feed to every Roger Earpiece on its network.

It takes a balanced line signal on a combination XLR and 6.3 mm input, or an unbalanced source on a 3.5 mm mini-jack. When both are connected, the 3.5 mm input takes priority. A row of LEDs on the front shows the input level, and the volume control sets the level of every connected earpiece from −14 dB to +12 dB in 2 dB steps. When no audio arrives for more than 5 seconds, the earpieces drop 6 dB, and they return to their level as soon as the signal comes back.

The BaseStation sends Phonak’s license-free 2.4 GHz Roger signal with adaptive frequency hopping and reaches earpieces 15 to 40 m (49 to 131 ft) away, depending on the space. Because the human body absorbs much of a 2.4 GHz signal, the BaseStation reaches farthest when mounted high near the center of the area it covers. Roger Repeaters carry the network across larger sets and venues, and up to 15 BaseStations can work in the same space.

Rack and wall mounts come with it. The included rack kit fits one BaseStation in a 19 in rack, and an optional dual rack mount kit holds two. On a wall, the unit stands upright with its antenna on top. The power supply comes with EU and US plug adapters.
