Infrared hearing systems (IR systems) provide a secure and effective assistive listening solution as a strong alternative to traditional induction loop systems. These systems transmit audio via invisible infrared light from a modulator/radiator to wireless receivers worn by users. Because infrared light cannot pass through walls or solid objects, the signal remains completely private and contained within the room — making infrared assistive listening systems perfect for environments where confidentiality is essential.
Our range includes a variety of infrared transmitters, modulators, high-power radiators (including expansion units for larger coverage), and compatible IR receivers such as stethoset and neckloop styles worn by the user. Multi-channel options allow simultaneous interpretation or different audio feeds, while complete classroom kits combine transmitters, receivers, and microphones for quick setup.
These commercial infrared hearing systems excel in courtrooms, council chambers, and corporate boardrooms for private meetings. They are equally popular in lecture theatres, conference centres, places of worship, museums, historic buildings (where traditional cabling and wiring is restricted or prohibited), and training rooms.
Infrared systems also work well alongside PA systems for clear voice reinforcement without electromagnetic interference issues common in some environments.
With no perimeter loop cable required, installation is often simpler and more cost-effective than induction loops. Receivers are rechargeable and easy to distribute, offering excellent sound quality with minimal background noise.
Whether you need a small-room solution or a powerful multi-radiator setup for larger venues, our infrared systems deliver reliable, high-clarity assistive listening while supporting accessibility standards.
