Power Dynamics PMPM10 - 6-Zone Paging Microphone

Power Dynamics PMPM10 - 6-Zone Paging Microphone

The Power Dynamics PMPM10 is a professional call station designed for clear and efficient communication in multi-zone public address systems. With its sleek design and robust construction, this desktop microphone is the perfect solution for managing announcements in commercial, educational, or industrial environments. Its metal base provides excellent stability, while the flexible gooseneck boom allows for easy adjustment of the unidirectional condenser microphone's position, ensuring crisp, direct voice pickup at all times.

This microphone has been specifically developed for seamless integration with Power Dynamics' PMP series of commercial mixer amplifiers. Connection is exceptionally simple, using a single standard Cat-5 network cable with an RJ45 connector, which not only transmits the audio signal but also powers the unit thanks to Power over Ethernet (PoE) technology. This eliminates the need for external power supplies, simplifying installation and keeping your workspace tidy. The PMPM10 allows you to direct announcements to six independent zones or broadcast a general announcement to all zones simultaneously, providing complete control over your public address system.

Main features

• 6 Zone Selection: Equipped with six dedicated zone selectors and an All-Call button, it allows you to direct messages precisely to the desired area, avoiding interruptions in other sectors.
• Superior Audio Quality: The condenser microphone with a unidirectional polar pattern focuses on the speaker's voice, minimizing the pickup of ambient noise and ensuring that announcements are always clear and intelligible.
• Chime Function: Includes a button to emit a warning tone before each message. The chime volume is adjustable, allowing you to effectively capture the audience's attention before each communication.
• Simplified Installation: Connecting via a single RJ45 cable (Cat-5 or higher) for audio and power (PoE) reduces cable clutter and facilitates a quick and clean installation.
• Expandable and Priority System: It is possible to connect up to four PMPM10 stations in a loop (daisy-chain) to the same amplifier, establishing a priority hierarchy among them to manage alerts from different control points.
• Intuitive Controls: It has microphone volume control, zone lock function and convenient LED status indicators for power, signal and saturation (clip), offering total and simple control to the operator.
• Robust Construction: Its high-quality metal base ensures great durability and stability on any surface, ready for intensive daily use.

Benefits for the user

The PMPM10 paging microphone is designed to optimize communication in any installation. Its ability to segment messages by zone improves operational efficiency, sending relevant information only to those who need it. Ease of use is paramount; its clear and straightforward controls allow anyone to operate it without complex training. Furthermore, the quality of its construction and electronic components ensures long-term reliability, making it a sound investment for any professional sound system.

Use cases

Thanks to its versatility and performance, the Power Dynamics PMPM10 is the ideal choice for a wide variety of installations, such as:

• Supermarkets, shopping centers and large stores.
• Educational centers such as schools, institutes and universities.
• Warehouses, factories and logistics centers.
• Office buildings and corporate headquarters.
• Hospitals, clinics and health centers.
