The PCC®-130SW is a surface-mounted small cardioid microphone of professional quality. This handsomely styled unit is appropriate for use on the most elegant boardroom table or lectern. Other applications include churches, courtrooms and teleconferencing. The PCC®-130SW has a silent-operating membrane switch which is normally off. The switch can be configured for touch on/off, momentary on or momentary off. This configuration is set by a bottom-mounted slide switch. A high-intensity LED lights when the unit is on. The PCC®-130SW is intended for multiple-microphone use on a conference table where each person wants control of his or her microphone. The microphone attenuates 70 dB when the switch is in the off position. Since the microphone capsule is placed on a boundary or surface, direct and reflected sounds arrive at the diaphragm in phase resulting in a wide, smooth frequency response free of phase interference. Clarity and reach are also enhanced.
With its small size, the PCC® -130 is less conspicuous on a conference table than comparable mics. Because of its highly directional pickup pattern, the PCC®-130 minimizes background noise and feedback. The microphone uses the principle of phase coherency achieved by mounting a small diameter Microphone capsule very near a boundary. Direct and reflected sound waves arrive at the Microphone in phase and add coherently. This enhances sensitivity, clarity and reach. Self-contained electronics eliminate the need for an in-line power module. Powered by 12-48 V phantom power, the PCC®-130 has a low-impedance balanced output which permits long cable runs without hum pickup or high-frequency loss. Included with each PCC®-130 is a 4,6 m (15 ft.), two conductors shielded microphone cables with a TA3F connector (Microphone end) and a 3-pin male XLR-type connector (output). Capable of withstanding up to 120 dB SPL without distortion, the PCC®-130 will never overload in practical use. Its electret-condenser capsule provides wide, smooth frequency response from 50 Hz to 20 kHz. RFI suppression is included. Self-noise is low and sensitivity is very high. A bass tilt switch allows the user to tailor the low-end response for particular applications. Permanent mounting is enabled by screw holes in the base.
