Clear-Com FSE-BP50 FreeSpeak Edge 5GHz Wireless Beltpack

FreeSpeak Edge® is a multi-channel, duplex digital wireless intercom system operating in the 5 GHz band and is part of the FreeSpeak® family of products.

The FSE-BP50 is a rugged, water-resistant multi-channel beltpack that operates in the 5 GHz frequency range, coupled with a dedicated modulation scheme to use signal reflection and multipath to deliver low-latency, best-in-class 12 kHz audio and data for a premier high-density wireless solution. The beltpack has an ergonomic design with nine programmable keys, large color screen, dedicated A & B encoders, individual level controls for C & D, a dedicated master volume control, and a built-in mic and speaker station mode.

Operation

FreeSpeak Edge beltpacks can be supported by a range of options, including the FreeSpeak Edge Base Station, the Arcadia® Central Station, and the Eclipse® HX digital matrix, all of which support the FSE-BP50 via the FSE-TCVR-50-IP transceiver (region specific). FSE-BP50 users can roam seamlessly between FSE-TCVR-50-IP transceivers over wide areas. When configured by an Eclipse matrix, the system can scale up to meet the needs of even the very largest productions.

Increase System Size

The FSE-BP50 can be mixed with FSII-BP19 and FSII-BP24 beltpacks on the same system, increasing the quantity of beltpack users in a single deployment. Eclipse supports 64 FSE-BP50 beltpacks on one E-IPA-HX IP card, however systems utilizing multiple E-IPA cards within a single Eclipse HX frame can support up to 200 beltpacks (see Capacity Chart for details).

Durability

The FSE-BP50 is IP54 rated for wet weather or dusty conditions, making it ideal for outdoor productions. For better grip and protection, the beltpack has a rubberized over-mold to protect from the most rugged environments.

Battery

Using the BAT80 Li-Ion battery, the FSE-BP50 has 12+ hours of battery. Housed within the beltpack is a USB-C charging port (cable included with package) for recharging or for continuous powered transmissions. The BAT80 can be charged within the AC80 battery charger.
