RG58 Cable Attenuation (MKPS, MKA5, MKA20 antenna cable)
Cable Attenuation
To obtain the best sound possible, you need to have the right RF input level throughout
your signal chain. Premium quality wireless systems like the WMS450/470 and
WMS4500, offer you adjustable RF-level settings that garantee to maximise operating
distance even when using different cable lenghts and different types of cable! For this
purpose,
AKG’s PS
4000W antenna splitter, has 3
dip switches that you’ll find on the right
side of it’s front panel
, behind the AKG logo.
PS4000 dip switch
These switches reduce the input RF level of the antenna input between 0 dB and 14 dB.
Levels of all antenna outputs and the cascade (link) output will be reduced.
AB4000 dip switch
The AB4000 has a fix 17.5dB amplifier in the output stage. The dip switches reduce the
input RF level of the AB4000 from 0 dB and -14 dB. AB4000 gets the DC power from the
PS4000W or an ASU4000 unit via the antenna cable
