FM ADA Kit

FM ADA KIT 1

Meet Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements for assistive listening with this portable, economical FM personal listening system. The kit includes everything necessary to provide a straightforward plug-and-play assistive listening solution for venues accommodating up to 50 people.

NOTE: The FCC approves this FM personal listening system for operation in U.S. markets. You should check your government’s radio rules for 72-76 MHz use, as not all countries may allow this system.

The Portable FM ADA Kit offers a straightforward solution to fulfill ADA requirements for assistive listening in smaller environments. ADA mandates public facilities to ensure equal access for individuals with disabilities, including those requiring hearing assistance. This kit provides all the necessary components for hearing accessibility in venues like classrooms, conferences, and houses of worship.

The FM ADA Kit 1 includes a transmitter that wirelessly broadcasts a speaker’s voice, music program, or audio service up to 1000 feet. The speaker can easily connect a microphone with a 3.5mm plug to broadcast their voice. They can also connect to a sound system using an RCA jack to play music or other audio. Up to two guests can listen to the broadcasted audio with the FM receivers with earphones or neckloops.

Note: The transmitter is approved by the FCC for operation in U.S. markets. The transmitter cannot be used in all countries. Check with your government’s radio regulations for 72-76 MHz operation. This product is only available with 100V per supply and US plug type.
