SCD 469 specifications

The Philips SCD 469 is a sophisticated baby monitor designed to provide parents with peace of mind and insight into their child's sleeping environment. Combining advanced technologies with user-friendly features, this device exemplifies what modern baby monitoring should be.

At the heart of the SCD 469 is its DECT technology, which provides clear audio transmission without interference from other devices. This ensures that parents can hear every little sound their baby makes, whether it’s a soft murmur or a full-blown cry, all while enjoying the reassurance of private communications. The DECT technology also enhances security, as it operates on a dedicated frequency, preventing eavesdropping by other electronic devices.

The monitor comes equipped with a range of features designed to enhance usability. A notable highlight is its range of up to 300 meters outdoors and 50 meters indoors, providing parents the freedom to move around their home without losing connection. The SCD 469 also includes a two-way communication feature, which allows parents to soothe their baby from another room with their voice, making it easier to comfort them without needing to enter the nursery.

Another significant characteristic of the Philips SCD 469 is its rechargeable battery in the parent unit. This gives a significant advantage—parents can move freely without being tethered to a power outlet. Additionally, the battery life indicator helps ensure that parents are aware of the battery status, so they are never caught off guard.

The monitor features a temperature sensor, allowing parents to track the nursery's climate. This is coupled with customizable audio and visual alerts, ensuring parents are informed if their baby’s environment is too warm or too cold. The night light and lullabies features provide additional comfort for babies, creating a calming atmosphere for sleep.

User-friendliness is another strong point of the Philips SCD 469. The simple interface, along with a clear and intuitive design, makes it easy to use, even for first-time parents. With its blend of audio clarity, robust range, and thoughtful features, the Philips SCD 469 stands out as a reliable companion for ensuring the safety and comfort of babies and peace of mind for parents.
