Pliant Technologies has announced the debut of the new CCU-08 CrewCom control unit, providing the ability to use up to eight 4-wire ports while retaining all the same features of the current companion CCU-22 and CCU-44 products, and it will be on display at IBC 2022 (stand 10.C53) next week in Amsterdam.
As with all of the company’s control units, the CCU-08 contains no radio and is frequency agnostic and can therefore control and monitor any device across CrewNet regardless of radio frequency bands being utilized. With the combination of CrewCom radio transceivers, the new CCU-08 supports up to 82 radio packs, 18 in Normal mode and 64 in the recently released High Density mode, across all RF bands.
“The CCU-08 is an important addition to the CrewCom lineup,” says Gary Rosen, vice president of global sales for Pliant Technologies. “The CCU-08 adds the ability to have up to eight 4-wire intercom connections working simultaneously allowing for even larger scale deployments. The new CCU-08 is designed for applications that need additional I/O but do not require 2-wire connectivity.”
The CCU-08 is well suited for broadcast, larger production/events, rental houses, large theatre productions, and house of worship applications. The latest CrewCom firmware update includes the recently released High Density mode as well as support for the new CCU-08. Additionally, the latest update includes several enhancements, including faster configuration file (CCF) upload speeds and a new radio pack paired list that allows the user to view and manage, in a single location of the software, a list of all packs paired to each control unit.
