Model 592T User Guide
NOISE-CANCELLING ELECTRET
CONDENSER MICROPHONE
The Shure Model 592T is a noise-cancelling replacement microphone for many mobile radio sets. The microphone is compatible with a variety of five-conductor, shielded, coil-cord cables (sold separately), each of which has a locking, telephone-type modular plug on the microphone end, and a choice of popular transmitter input connectors on the other. One cable model provides only bare tinned leads on the transmitter input end so that the user can install the desired connector. Since cable damage is the major cause of microphone failure, this makes the 592T among the first communications microphones to offer economical, quick and simple repair capability.
The 592T is rugged and reliable. It has a bidirectional pickup pattern and provides extremely clear transmission, especially in noisy environments. In addition to its clear, crisp response, tailored for voice-frequency communications, the 592T has extremely low sensitivity to hum pickup and low susceptibility to radio-frequency interference.
The 592T is ergonomically designed; it fits naturally and comfortably in the hand and is not affected by heat or humidity. The rugged ARMO-DUR case is immune to oil, grease, most fumes and solvents, salt spray, sun, rust and corrosion. It is outstanding in its ability to withstand mechanical shocks and vibration. The Mil- lion-Cycle Plus leaf-type switch is a double-pole, single-throw type, designed to resist the effects of severe operating conditions and constant usage. It has nickel-silver blades, and its contacts are pal- ladium-alloyed for reliable, oxidation-free operation.

OVERALL DIMENSIONS
FIGURE 3
The 592T can be used with various MODULINK microphone cables. Each cable has a modular microphone plug on one end and the user's choice of equipment plugs on the other. The MODULINK Cordset Table supplied with the 592T lists the most popular radios with biased audio available, and the cordset (ALM-) for use with each. Note that the ALM-1 has no connector on the equipment end; it can be wired as needed.
The cable is attached to the 592T by inserting the modular tele- phone-type plug in the microphone jack until it locks. To remove the cable from the microphone, insert the small screwdriver supplied with the 592T in the rear case hole just above the cable jack to unlock the plug and withdraw the plug from the jack.
