Page 5: Your Cros Transmitter
Your CROS transmitter CROS solutions are designed for people with profound hearing loss in one ear which can not be aided with a hearing instrument. A CROS transmitter worn on this ear captures sound from this side and transmits it to the hearing instrument on the other ear. - Page 6 Two solutions are available: ● CROS solution: For people with normal hearing in one ear and profound hearing loss in the other. Sounds from the side with hearing loss are captured and transmitted wirelessly to the good‑hearing side. ● BiCROS solution: For people with profound hearing loss in one ear and less severe hearing loss in the other.
