Using the ACA 1
Example 1: Studio Complex
The diagram represents a TV studio complex with three studios
and a newsroom all sharing the same wireless microphone
systems. Four diversity pairs of antennas are deployed, one pair
in each of the areas to be covered.
50 ohm coaxial cables connect each antenna to a centrally loca-
ted ACA 1 combiner which feeds the radio signal from all of the
antennas to the radio receivers.
Boosters may be required on long cable runs.
The ACA 1 provides 12V DC power at each input to power boo-
sters or active antennas as required.
Coaxial cable types must be chosen with care to avoid excessive
signal loss between the antennas and the combiner.
Position and type of antennas in each area must be chosen with
care to provide appropriate coverage.
