Eartec TCS Wired Communication FAQ

The TCS (Technical Communication System) is a “workhorse” analog wired system designed for permanent installations or stationary production environments. It offers a rock-solid, interference-free connection that is not susceptible to the frequency crowding or battery limitations that can sometimes affect wireless systems.

The XTreme and ProLine headsets are totally self-contained with built-in amplification and volume controls, meaning they plug directly into the floor cables without a belt pack.

The standard TCS Power Station typically supports up to 6 wired headsets directly. For larger crews, the system is easily expandable by adding splitters or chaining headsets to increase capacity at specific stations.

Yes. While Eartec offers specialized double-jacket PVC floor cables in lengths of 25′, 50′, and 100′, the TCS system is compatible with any high-quality, existing 3-pin XLR cables you may already have in your inventory.

The TCS system uses a standard 12V AC adapter (USA outlet).
