source to the product’s AC input. Whenever it is likely that
the protection has been impaired, disconnect the power cord
until the ground has been restored.
ATTENTION: Cet appareil doit être mise à la terre.
Cet appareil est de classe de sûreté 1. Il doit y avoir un
ininterrompable de mise à la terre de sécurité provenant de
la source principale de courant de l’appareil de l’entrée du
courant alternatif. Quand la protection a été affaiblie, débrancher
le fil de courant jusqu’à la mise à terre a bien été réétablie.

The detachable IEC type power input cord supplied is intended for
use in regions with mains voltage in the range of 100–125VAC
only. Use only the furnished power cord that includes the
appropriate NEMA 5-15P/ANSI C73.11 type attachment plug.
For use in geographical areas with mains voltage outside of the
range 100–125VAC, it is necessary for the user to utilize a power
cord rated and configured for operation in their region. Replace the
supplied power cord with a cord rated for correct voltage operation.
Warning/Attention:
To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not

The Audio-Technica MCB4 Antenna Combiner allows the signals of up
to four M3 Wireless In-Ear Monitor stereo transmitters to be combined
onto a single transmitting antenna, reducing rack clutter.
A wide-band unit that operates over the 440-865 MHz range, the MCB4
is designed to complement Audio-Technica M3 Wireless In-Ear Monitor
Systems. It is also suitable for many other in-ear wireless systems (with
external BNC antenna connections) operating within the 440 to 865
MHz range.
The MCB4 provides one output and four isolated transmitter inputs. All
RF connectors are BNC-type.
Four jacks on the rear panel (controlled by the unit's power switch)
provide 12V DC (center positive) to power as many as four transmitters
operating on 12 volts at up to 600 mA each. Included with the unit
are four DC cables appropriate for use with M3T (or like-powered)
transmitters. The 12-volt supplies for powering transmitters are short-
circuit protected. The unit features all-metal construction for extreme
durability and protection from radio frequency interference.
• Broadband UHF operation (440-865 MHz range)
• Combines the signals of up to four wireless in-ear monitor
transmitters into one antenna
• Centralized power supply with ability to power four individual
transmitters
• Maintains clean signals with low distortion
• Includes hardware for front-mounting the antenna for improved
performance
• Includes adapters to allow the unit to be mounted into a single
rack space
