Durable Wall-Mount Microphone for Outdoor Paging Systems
The Astatic WM-1000 is a robust, weatherproof dynamic microphone built specifically for permanent outdoor installation in high-traffic voice communication areas. Designed for wall mounting, this microphone is ideal for drive-thru ordering systems, banking intercoms, gas stations, kiosks, menu boards, and any location where reliable voice pickup is critical. Its durable construction and consistent performance make it a reliable solution in environments exposed to the elements.
Engineered for Harsh Weather Environments
This wall-plate microphone features a rugged die-cast zinc housing paired with a stainless steel mounting plate and a Mylar moisture barrier that shields its internal components. These materials provide long-lasting protection against rain, humidity, and environmental corrosion, making the WM-1000 well-suited for year-round outdoor use. Whether mounted to brick, metal, or panel enclosures, it holds up to weather extremes while continuing to deliver clear speech transmission.
Omnidirectional Pickup Captures Speech From Any Angle
Equipped with an omnidirectional pickup pattern, the Astatic WM-1000 captures audio clearly from all directions. This design ensures that speech is easily picked up regardless of where a person stands relative to the microphone, helping eliminate missed communication in fast-paced service environments. It’s especially useful for applications where users may not be standing directly in front of the mic when speaking.
Flat Profile Mounting for Space-Constrained Installations
The microphone’s flat, low-profile design is purpose-built for flush mounting onto walls, poles, or menu boards. This keeps the unit discreet and tamper-resistant while maintaining direct access for customer use. Its compact form makes it easy to integrate into existing intercom or paging systems without requiring large cutouts or special mounting hardware.
Simple Audio Integration With TRS Output
The integrated cable terminates with a standard 1/4-inch TRS female connector, allowing quick connection to existing drive-thru systems or amplifiers using standard 1/4-inch TRS cables. This plug-and-play approach simplifies setup and maintenance for installers or technicians working across multiple retail or commercial locations.
Ideal for Retail, QSR, and Financial Service Applications
From drive-thru windows to ATMs and walk-up customer service stations, the WM-1000 provides an effective and resilient voice capture solution. Its construction and feature set are tailored to meet the demands of 24/7 operations in industries where uptime and intelligibility matter. It's equally useful in environments like transportation hubs, educational campuses, or healthcare facilities with outdoor intercom systems.
