MX416 User’s Guide & Operating Manual
1. General
The MX416 rugged digital microphone is intended for use in short
range wireless audio transmission applications for police, homeland
security etc. The RF output power is approx. 250mW and typical lineof-sight operating range is over 3 miles (depends on various factors).
The MX416 works as a pair. The transmitter is very small and
completely self-contained with a microphone and a Li-Ion battery
built-in. The battery is capable of running the MX416 continuously for
over 7 hours. The receiver is powered by an external dc supply and
has a output for driving a 16 ohm headset speaker.
The MX416 offers the following features:
• A secure digital audio link with very short delay.
• UHF frequencies that provide better radio signal penetration
through walls and obstacles
• Low Power and light weight
