Progressive Concepts - Exclusive Distributor

Lowers TV Noise Levels & Provides Cordless Audio Services.

Limited range FM  broadcasting eliminates the need for loud speakers or wired earphones.  Inmates select and listen to the channel of their choice, SILENTLY,  on  personal FM radios with an earphone. Ambient noise levels can be greatly reduced in day rooms, pods, housing units, libraries and recreation areas. Excellent for multiple programming such as music, books on tape, educational classes or several TV's. Several units may be operated in the area without interference.

Your line level audio source is transmitted on any one of 100 FM channels. Easy connection to tape and CD/DVD players, VCR's, TV's, radios and PA systems.  On-board audio transformer provides floating ground isolation if required. FM channels are digitally selected and synthesized for no-drift operation. Rotary switches are used for channel selection. Your pre-set channel is automatically restored on power-up, temporary loss of frequency lock, or after a power outage.

Our fully assembled FM broadcasters come in two versions. Each has been field proven for long-term reliability, stability and durability. ONE YEAR WARRANTY & FREE TECH SUPPORT.  Ask about extended warranties and out-of-warranty repair services.


ACC100:
This FCC certified device includes a sturdy aluminum and steel black metal enclosure, wall adapter power supply, RCA audio cable & flexible wire antenna. Case is 5 x 4 x 1.5 inches. This unit is ready to "plug and play".

The ACC100 circuit card is identical to the FMX-W except that its broadcast range has been reduced to 200 feet or less to comply with FCC regulations.  A balanced audio input is also available if your audio source requires isolation.

FMX-A:Available to Federal Facilities Only
This circuit card allows installation flexibility. Most facilities mount the card within an electrical conduit box or inside a TV receiver for security purposes. A short audio cable with a 2-pin header is provided for connecting to the device's balanced audio input. The FMX-A includes an "F" output connector for use with an antenna or coaxial cable.  A short wire antenna yields a 300 feet range. The circuit card is 2.5 x 3.9 x 1.5 inches.

Use your own 12 Vdc power supply, our T2 wall adapter supply, or your TV's 12 Vdc power supply. We recommend connecting this device with our 2.1mm power plug and cable if using your TV's power supply. Power cables are sold separately.

FMX-W:Available to Federal Facilities Only
This circuit card is identical to the FMX-A but has a 24" insulated wire antenna instead of an "F" connector. This photo also shows the 2-pin header audio cable and the 2.1mm power plug mentioned above.

FMX-E:Available to Federal Facilities Only
An FMX-W or  FMX-A  circuit card installed in a white metal enclosure like the ACC100 becomes an FMX-EW or FMX-EA. RCA cable and power supply sold separately.
 

ALC/SG2
The circuit card on the right in this photo converts your ACC100, FMX-EW or FMX-EA to a full stereo broadcaster. It requires Left and Right channel signals at "line levels" from you audio source. Sold separately for do-it-yourself retrofit, or installed at no charge when purchased with the ACC100, FMX-EA or FMX-EW.

Shown here installed in the enclosure of an FMX-EA.

FMX Kits are not available.
