The Q5X PlayerMic Short is a flexible, rubber bodypack transmitter originally developed for the NBA as the world’s first bendable wireless bodypack, purpose-built for the demands of professional sports and live entertainment environments. Its nearly indestructible rubber construction allows it to conform to the body, making it exceptionally concealable under uniforms, costumes, and performance attire. When paired with Axient Digital wireless receivers, it delivers superior digital transmission with advanced encryption and spectrum efficiency. This transmitter is the solution for broadcast engineers, touring production companies, sports leagues, houses of worship, and entertainment venues requiring reliable, discreet RF performance under extreme conditions.
