• 16 hr run time @ 10mW (AquaMic L) — 65 mm x 46 mm x 23 mm
• Power output range 2 – 20mW

Superior Digital Performance

The Q5X AquaMic QT-AD10 bodypack transmitter has been developed in collaboration with Shure Corporation to work exclusively with Shure Axient Digital receivers, ensuring superior digital transmission with advanced encryption and spectrum efficiency.

Completely Submersible

The QT-AD10 Digital AquaMic™ is the waterproof version of the QT-AD10 family of transmitters and is fully submersible, making it ideal for any wet, dusty, and dirty applications where a totally sealed transmitter is required.  After use, the transmitter can be safely cleaned and sanitized before the next project.

Remote Control Audio System

All essential setup, management, and monitoring are coordinated through the Q5X MicCommander handheld remote control, which is necessary for operation (sold separately).

The Q5X AquaMic utilizes RCAS™ (Remote Control Audio System), a revolutionary way to remotely control transmitter settings from a central computer or hand held remote control. The remote functions allow technicians to control; on/off, monitor status and battery level and make on-the-fly adjustments of frequency, mic offset, mic mute, RF power level, and grouping, all wirelessly.

Trial by Water

The Q5X AquaMic broadcast audio transmitter has proven its worth exposed to the elements in some of the most demanding conditions. From reality TV to  surfing competitions and America’s Cup Yachting, the QT-5100 AquaMic excels in extreme wet environments. The AquaMic is also buried in the dirt for Major League Baseball broadcasts. The RCAS (Remote Control Audio System) eliminates the need for any physical control elements on the transmitter so there is no point of entry for moisture to access the electronics.

Long Battery Life

The internal lithium polymer battery lasts 8 to 16 hours on a single charge (depending on version and output power). It comes standard with user selectable RF output power from 2mW to 20mW.

Four UHF Tuning Blocks

The QT-AD10 Digital AquaMic™ is offered in 4 tuning blocks that span 470 to 700 MHz and 941 to 960 MHz in 25 kHz steps.
