Pliant Technologies To Display Range Of CrewCom Products At InfoComm

Pliant Technologies is to showcase its range of CrewCom products at InfoComm 2018 in Las Vegas, 06-08 June.

CrewCom is a professional wireless intercom system that can be used in both 2.4GHz and 900MHz frequency bands. It will be on display alongside Pliant's line of SmartBoom PRO professional headsets.

CrewCom features excellent voice quality, the industry's smallest fully-featured professional full-duplex radio packs, multiple simultaneous frequency bands, as well as a host of user features. With CrewCom, production crews of all sizes can easily and quickly deploy communications solutions to connect more people in more places than ever before.

"With the release of CrewCom, we are now providing a wireless intercom solution that is changing the way professionals use intercom, allowing both easy-to-use small wireless systems and large-scale deployments for those that need dramatic scalability and extensive user counts based on the same technology," said Gary Rosen, Vice President of global sales for Pliant Technologies. "We have seen tremendous interest in our system and received extremely positive feedback from our CrewCom distributors as they supply CrewCom for both large-scale live broadcast and sporting events, and small-scale installations. Systems have been deployed in some of the most demanding live production environments and have been well received by industry professionals in the field."

CrewCom wireless products are available in 2.4GHz and 900MHz models (900MHz are limited to where this band is legal). Any combination of these frequency bands may be simultaneously used on the same CrewCom system, giving the ability to easily put global-friendly, dependable RF coverage where needed, all while employing a consistent user interface throughout the system. This enables the system to easily adapt to the RF challenges facing production and entertainment professionals.

Unlike a matrix-based architecture, CrewCom is based on a decentralised network platform that puts system resources where they are needed. This innovative approach to professional wireless intercoms enables CrewCom to handle almost any application—from simple out-of-the-box solutions to large-scale designs for a diverse range of installation projects.

Pliant will also display CrewCom's graphical software, CrewWare™, at InfoComm 2018. It provides comprehensive offline configuration, online control, and real-time monitoring of all system components. These new software tools augment CrewCom's ease-of-use and flexible system scalability for productions of any size. While this is a powerful tool available at no additional charge to all users, it is not required to operate the system. CrewCom's CrewNet™ proprietary network coordinates and transports all system timing, audio conferences, signalling, and control. CrewNet can operate over standard Cat-5e (or above) and single mode fiber lines, breaking the current barriers for wireless intercom range.

The SmartBoom® PRO series of communications headsets are specifically designed for exceptional comfort, flexibility and durability. In addition to the innovative SmartBoom on/off microphone muting feature, the closed back, on-ear headsets feature enhanced acoustic isolation. The mic boom is flexible and has a dynamic noise-cancelling cardioid microphone optimised for voice communications.

Pliant Technologies will be on booth C459 at InfoComm 2018.
