Pliant Technologies CRT-2400 CrewCom 2.4GHz Radio Transceiver

The Pliant Technologies CRT-2400 CrewCom 2.4GHz Radio Transceiver puts RF specifically where needed. It houses a radio with corresponding antennas and serves as an access point, enabling RF communications with CrewCom Radio Packs. Using CrewNet as a backbone, a large number of RTs can easily be positioned on the network over a wide coverage area through direct connection to a Control Unit or Hub(s), or through daisy-chain configuration with each other.
