KCA-HX5M
Motorcycle Bluetooth Communication System with Mesh Intercom
KENWOOD’s new motorcycle headset KCA-HX5M provides crystal clear, hands-free helmet-to-helmet communication with your friends and family. Simply add the headset to your helmet, and you are ready to ride. The advanced Bluetooth also allows Audio Multitasking™ so you can have a conversation via Mesh 2.0 Intercom while simultaneously operating Bluetooth such as listening FM radio, streaming music, taking or making phone calls, or listening to GPS navigation prompts. By Using the Bluetooth Mesh 2.0 Network Technology you can connect with virtually limitless drivers using ‘Open Mesh Intercom’ or 24 other riders in a closed ‘Group Mesh Intercom’. Mesh Intercom works up to 2.0km in open terrain and can extend up to 8.0km between a minimum of 6 riders. This technology intelligently searches for intercom connections when they are lost and automatically reconnects once back in range - without affecting the rest of the group
