 Download Product Data Sheet

The new LT-84 ListenIR 2-Channel Transmitter-Radiator is the only product of its kind that provides complete coverage in a wide variety of venue spaces. This advanced IR product is simple to use, cost-effective, designed to blend in to any environment, and offers twice the amount of IR power of similar products, and up to six times the coverage area.

A single unit provides up to 30,000 ft² (2787 m²) coverage area with LR-4200-IR/LR-5200-IR receivers or 7,500 ft² (697 m²) with LR-42/LR-44 receivers in single channel mode, ensuring that the entire room has coverage without gaps or null spots.

The LT-84 is the first IR system with Expansion Radiators (LA-141) that implement delay compensation—no signal cancellation drop outs.

It is the only two channel Transmitter-Radiator with up to four frequencies; 2.3 MHz, 2.8 MHz, 3.3 MHz, or 3.8 MHz, providing flexibility in the field and eliminating the need to purchase a specific frequency based transmitter-radiator.

In addition four (4) Expansion Radiators (LA-141) can be added for additional coverage, when mounted within 100 ft. (30.48 m) cable length from the LT-84.

A single CAT-5e cable carries both power and signal to the LA-141 Expansion Radiators making it a true one-cable connection.

Easy installation includes mounting hardware for wall, ceiling, or table mounting and a multi-lingual legislative compliance sign. Flexible frequency selection and input connectivity minimizes on-site installation hassles.

  • Add up to (4) four expansion radiators (LA-141) for additional coverage, when mounted within 100 ft. (30.48 m) cable length from the LT-84.
  • Flexible frequency selection of 2.3, 2.8, 3.3, 3.8 MHz in a single unit.
  • True one-cable connection via single CAT-5e cable which carries both power and signal to the LA-141 expansion radiators.
  • Flexible input connectivity of Mic, RCA stereo sum, and Phoenix line level summed on each input channel simplifies installation.
