SpeechLine Digital Wireless: System planning

►

When planning the installation of a wireless audio system,

there are some aspects to be considered such as the number

and size of the rooms to be equipped or the number of the

wireless microphone links you plan to install.
These aspects are crucial for any project regardless of size. In

this part of the documentation, we would like to offer some ad

vice on how to proceed when planning a SpeechLine Digital

Wireless installation.

Planning Tool

To make planning even easier, we offer a planning tool avail

able on the SpeechLine Digital Wireless product page at
