High-Performance Dual-Link Bluetooth 5.0 Transmitter for Commercial Airlines, Travel AV, and In-Flight Entertainment Systems
Professional Travel Connectivity
Developed by MEE audio's California-based acoustic lab, the Connect Air converts any 3.5 mm auxiliary audio output into a high-fidelity Bluetooth wireless transmitter. Designed specifically for in-flight entertainment, fitness cardio consoles, handheld gaming, and legacy media players.
Stream synchronized digital audio simultaneously to two pairs of Bluetooth headphones or earbuds, including Apple AirPods, Bose QuietComfort, Sony WH-1000 series, and MEE Professional monitors. Perfect for couples and travel partners sharing a single seat-back display.
Eliminates the audio lag standard Bluetooth adapters introduce. Featuring hardware-level Qualcomm aptX and aptX Low Latency codecs, dialogue stays tightly lip-synced with on-screen video content down to <40ms latency.
The internal 200 mAh lithium-polymer battery provides up to 20 hours of continuous single-headphone playback (15 hours dual-headphone) on a 2-hour USB-C charge. Pass-through power capability ensures unlimited uptime when connected to USB cabin power.
Weighing just 17 grams (0.6 oz) with an integrated flexible 3.5 mm connector plug, Connect Air withstands mechanical leverage in tight aircraft armrests and stows cleanly inside travel cases without cord tangles.
