3 Product Description

Overview

Catchbox Lite is the world's first wireless throwable microphone intended for both small and medium sized audiences of up to 100 people. The soft cube can be quickly passed from one audience member to the next in crowded spaces, making it an easy and fun way to get audience members to ask questions and make comments, whether it be in a lecture, a meeting, a workshop, or even a conference. Operating in the 2.4 GHz frequency band, the device is free to use without a license worldwide. Digital transmission, adaptive frequency hopping, and antenna diversity ensure a clear wireless audio transmission. The unique automute technology turns off the audio signal when the microphone is being thrown ensuring the system doesn't make any unwanted noises when being passed around. Wireless Charger is optionally available.

Transmitter capsule comes with a rechargeable Li-ion battery that can be recharged using the included power with USB-C connector supply or the Wireless Charger. Catchbox automatically turns off when placed onto the Wireless Charger and turns back on when picked up eliminating the need for active device management. The unique patented Automute technology turns off the audio signal when the microphone is being thrown ensuring the system doesn't make any unwanted noises when passed around (US Patent: US9936319B2).

Key Features

• 2.4 GHz transmission for global, license-free use
• Digital signal ensures no audio distortion
- Adaptive frequency hopping and management
• Automute technology
• Diversity receiver with two antennas
- Rechargeable battery
- Wireless Charging

2.4 GHz radio Spectrum Overview

The Catchbox Lite uses the 2.4 GHz ISM frequency band as free to use without a license. While this is very convenient, it also creates limitations and drawbacks, mainly caused by the prevalence of other devices which also work in the same frequency band. To ensure flawless operation, the Catchbox Lite uses adaptive frequency hopping, antenna diversity, intelligent frequent management, and two way audio packet control and buffering. This said, by understanding the limitations of 2.4 GHz systems and knowing of ways to improve signal strength users can make sure that their device works as intended.

Limitations of 2.4 GHz Systems

Devices that operate in the 2.4 GHz frequency band have a limited range, usually around 20-30m / 65-100 ft in ideal working conditions. This, in turn, means the Catchbox Lite may not work in large events where there is a long distance between the transmitter and the receiver. 2.4 GHz frequency signals are also easily absorbed by walls, metallic materials and human bodies. This means one should not place the Catchbox Lite Receiver into another room from the transmitter, or place it inside a cupboard, specifically a metal one. If there are many other devices that operate in the 2.4 GHz spectrum in the same space (WiFi and Bluetooth enabled devices, such as smartphones and laptops) dropouts may occur due to the frequency band being overcrowded. To avoid this, do not use the product in audiences with over 100 people, like large conferences or exhibitions.

Improving signal strength

Users can improve the performance of the system through the following measures:

  • Ensure that there are no objects or walls between the receiver and transmitter.
  • Keep the distance between the transmitter and the receiver short.
  • Position the antennas of the receiver in a 45 degree pattern, like the letter V.
  • Do not place the receiver or transmitter near other 2.4 GHz devices, such as laptops or WiFi routers.
  • Avoid heavy wireless network activities, like downloading movies, in the same space.

Catchbox Lite - Improving signal strength - 1
!WARNING!

This product may cause interference to other products and devices operating in the 2.4 GHz frequency band. These other devices can also interfere with the wireless transmission of the device, causing signal dropouts.
