Shure introduced its IH6500 interpreter headset at InfoComm 2016 for professional interpreters who prefer an integrated headset.
The dual-sided headset has removable ear pads and a flexible gooseneck microphone boom that pivots 270 degrees. The IH6500 is compatible with Shure DCS 6000-series Interpreter Sets, including the IS 6132 P.
Its cardioid microphone is positioned close to the mouth in a bid to reduce pickup of adjacent voices and minimise background noise. Interpreters can wear the IH6500 with the mic on the left or right side and have access to the included 3.5 mm TRSS and DIN adapter cables.
