AKG HT470 C5 BD7 50 mW - UHF Handheld Transmitter for WMS470 Systems (Band 7, Cardioid Condenser Capsule)

AKG HT470 C5 BD7 50 mW - UHF Handheld Transmitter for WMS470 Systems (Band 7, Cardioid Condenser Capsule)

The AKG HT470 C5 BD7 50 mW is a professional wireless handheld microphone for the WMS470 series, equipped with the C5 cardioid condenser capsule, optimized to deliver clear, defined vocals and high gain before feedback. This version operates in Band 7 (BD7) with a range of 500.1–530.5 MHz , incorporating infrared synchronization with the receiver and pilot tone to avoid turn-on noise. It offers switchable 10/50 mW RF power , a tuning width of 30.5 MHz in 25 kHz steps (≈ 1200–1220 frequencies) and charging contacts compatible with the CU400 cradle. The system delivers audio response of 35–20,000 Hz with SNR 120 dB(A) and THD ≤0.7 % . It operates on a single AA battery (alkaline, NiMH or lithium) and provides typical battery life of ≈7 h (alkaline) , ≈8 h (NiMH) and ≈14 h (lithium) . Robust chassis with 237 × 51 mm and ≈240 g without batteries; integrated dipole antenna and LCD with frequency/group readout and battery life in hours.

Main features

• AKG C5 cardioid condenser capsule (C5 WL1 head : 65–20,000 Hz) for clear and controlled vocals.
• BD7 band (500.1–530.5 MHz) for compatibility with SR470 receivers of the same band.
• Switchable RF power : 10/50 mW (according to local regulations).
• Wide tuning : 30.5 MHz; 25 kHz step ; ≈1200–1220 selectable frequencies.
• IR synchronization with the receiver and pilot tone for silent switching.
• Integrated charging contacts compatible with CU400 .
• LCD display with group/channel and battery hours ; telemetry to the receiver.
• System response : 35–20,000 Hz; SNR 120 dB(A); THD ≤0.7 %.
• Typical autonomy : up to 14 h (AA lithium), ≈8 h (NiMH) and ≈7 h (alkaline).
• Typical line-of-sight range : up to 100 m (depending on environment and antennas).

Product benefits

• Clear, present vocals : The cardioid C5 enhances articulation and maintains feedback control in demanding scenarios.
• Professional deployment : IR pairing and pilot tone prevent unwanted noise and speed up setup.
• RF Flexibility : 10/50 mW and wide frequency grid for multi-channel coexistence.
• Clear operation : display with battery life in hours and compatibility with direct charging on the CU400 dock .

Use cases

• Direct : lead vocals and backing vocals that require projection and feedback control.
• Events and theater : fast frequency changes, long battery life, and quiet operation.
• A/V Installation : Auditoriums, Conference and Worship Centers with SR470 Receivers in BD7.
