Shure P9T Wireless Transmitter for PSM900

The PSM®900 Wireless Personal Monitor System from Shure offers an unprecedented combination of superb audio quality, robust RF performance, and category-leading features for the most demanding professional applications. Patent-pending CueMode allows the sound engineer to monitor different stage mixes with the touch of a button. Precision front-end RF filtering significantly reduces dropouts from RF interference, and the enhanced digital stereo encoder provides excellent stereo separation and audio clarity.

The P9T is a half-rack wireless transmitter used in conjunction with the P9R Bodypack receiver as part of the PSM®900 Wireless Personal Monitor System.

It offers state-of-art technology like CueMode (patent pending), Scan and Sync, and RF mute switch for easy setup and operation.

Connections include balanced 1/4” and XLR, loop out, and headphone out. Includes rack-mounting kit, front or back mountable antennas, and power supply.

• RF Mute Switch allows system setup without causing RF interference
• Syncs to a P9R bodypack quickly and easily over IR link using Scan and Sync
• Front panel audio input gain adjustment and LED level meter with clipping indicator
• Front or back mountable antennas
• Compatible with PA421B and PA821B antenna combiners
• Loop out connectors for multiple mix setups and easy installation
• Switchable +4 dBu and -10 dBV input level
• Balanced, 1/4” and XLR connectors
• Bit-mapped, backlit LCD
• 1/8” headphone out on the front panel for easy monitoring
