DMS100/DMS300 OVERVIEW
DMS100/DMS300 digital wireless systems are available in four configurations as shown above; also referred to as Vocal Sets
(handheld transmitter with receiver) and Instrument Sets (bodypack transmitter with receiver).
DMS100/DMS300 systems are designed for use in small/mid-size venues. Applications include:
Live Sound – for vocal and instrumental musicians
Presentations – for educational/vocational presenters, instructors and trainers
Meeting Spaces – for small/mid-size corporate/business users in need of private, secure wireless communications
DMS100 and DMS300 digital wireless systems are similar in many ways including:
Easy setup and operation - designed from the ground up to be intuitive with seamless setup, easy channel pairing
and adaptive channel selection that takes the guesswork out of locating available wireless channels.
Global license free operation – as the available spectrum assigned for use by wireless microphone systems
continues to shrink worldwide, DMS100/DMS300 digital wireless systems are a convenient alternative in that they
are able to operate in the 2.4GHz, global license-free wireless space.
