Alatan komunikasi seperti ‘intercomm’ kini semakin popular di kalangan penunggang motosikal.

‘Intercomm’ menjadikan interaksi dengan telefon pintar lebih mudah dan jelas tanpa perlu memegang telefon untuk tujuan mendengar lagu, radio, dan sebagainya.

‘Intercomm’ juga membolehkan penunggang berkomunikasi dengan pembonceng dengan lebih mudah tanpa perlu menoleh kepala untuk bercakap di samping membolehkan penunggang berkomunikasi dengan penunggang motosikal lain sewaktu berkonvoi.

Segala fungsi ini menjadikan ‘intercomm’ sebagai antara aksesori wajib terutamanya bagi kaki ‘ride’.

Bagi memeriahkan lagi aktiviti ‘ride’ dikalangan penunggang motosikal di Malaysia, Cardo Malaysia telah melancarkan Cardo Packtalk Edge serba baharu.

Cardo Packtalk Edge merupakan alat ‘intercomm’ terbaru serta premium dan merupakan model ‘flagship’ terbaru Cardo Malaysia menggantikan Packtalk Bold.

Packtalk Edge juga menawarkan fungsi Bluetooth 5.2 terkini dan Dynamic Mesh Communication (DMC) generasi kedua.

Perbezaan ketara antara Packtalk Edge dan Packtalk Bold terdahulu adalah rekaan yang lebih kemas dan minimalis di samping ketiadaan antenna yang sebelum ini menjadi ciri utama Packtalk Bold.

Selain fungsi dinaik taraf, Cardo turut mengemas kini bahagian lekapan yang kini dikenali sebagai ‘Air Mount’.

‘Air Mount’ merupakan sistem lekapan yang menggunakan bahan magnetik.

Bahan magnetik itu memastikan Packtalk Edge mudah dipasang dan ditanggalkan dengan hanya menggunakan sebelah tangan sahaja.

Daya magnetik yang kuat itu juga memastikan Packtalk Edge dilekap dengan lebih kukuh dan stabil meskipun menunggang dalam kelajuan tinggi.

Selain itu, Packtalk Edge juga tampil dengan ciri ‘fast charging’ hasil penggunaan kabel USB Type-C. Menurut Cardo Malaysia, bateri Packtalk Edge boleh bertahan sehingga 13 jam bagi setiap cas penuh.

Pada masa sama, generasi kedua DMC itu membolehkan Edge dihubungkan antara dua hingga 15 alat pada satu masa dengan jarak mencapai hingga 1,600 meter.

Paling penting, Cardo Packtalk Edge juga dilengkapi speaker berkualiti tinggi hasil kerjasama dengan JBL.

Kami diberitahu bahawa JBL bukan sahaja terlibat dalam pembangunan perkakasan (hardware) malah turut terbabit menghasilkan bahagian perisian (software) bagi memastikan Packtalk Edge menawarkan bunyi berkualiti tinggi.

Sementara itu, orang ramai yang berminat boleh mendapatkan Cardo Packtalk Edge di pengedar rasmi dengan harga RM1,649. Setiap pembelian didatangkan dengan waranti tiga tahun.

If you are in the lookout for a top of the range motorcycle communicator, you are in luck as Cardo Malaysia has just released the new Cardo Packtalk Edge.

  • The Packtalk Edge is Cardo’s flagship intercom unit that sits above the Packtalk Bold.
  • Features Bluetooth 5.2 and 2nd-generation Dynamic Mesh Communication.

The new Cardo Packtalk Edge features significant enhancements compared to the current Packtalk Bold.

Firstly, the Edge gets a minimalist design and gone is the pop-up antenna previously available on the Bold.

Also, the Edge features a new “Air Mount” system that uses magnetic mount – instead of the catch-and-tab mount on the Bold – with secondary latches that ensures the intercom sticks like a glue.

The magnetic features not only allow riders to mount the Edge effortlessly but also easily removable by placing a single finger on the front catch allowing the unit to slips out.

Other major improvement includes a faster charging time thanks to a new UBS-Type C cable that supports fast charging. Cardo Malaysia also claimed that the unit can last around 13 hours with every (full) charge.

Meanwhile, the Packtalk Edge now features second-generation Dynamic Mesh Communication (DMC) that allows connectivity between two to 15 devices with a range of up to 1,600 meters.

What do you get from the 2nd-gen DMC?

  • simplified grouping
  • wide-band intercomm
  • enhanced noise filtering
  • faster pairing
  • natural voice operation

Pack in a fully waterproof case, the Packtalk Edge continues to features upgraded JBL speakers. We were informed that JBL not only works on the hardware but also the software to ensure the sound quality is top notch.

For now, the Cardo Packtalk Edge is only available as a single pack and retails for RM1,649 and comes with 3-year warranty.
