SPECIFICATIONS
The rack-mount receiver with true diversity technology shall be for use with a companion transmitter as part of a wireless RF trans-
mission system.
The receiver shall operate within six UHF frequency ranges, each with a 42 MHz switching bandwidth: 516 – 558 MHz, 566 – 608 MHz,
626 – 668 MHz, 734 –776 MHz, 780 – 822 MHz, 823 – 865 MHz; receiving frequencies shall be 1,680 per range and shall be tunable in
25 kHz steps. The receiver shall feature 20 fixed frequency banks with up to 32 compatible frequency presets and 6 user banks with
up to 32 user programmable frequencies.
The receiver shall feature a balanced XLR-3M audio output with a maximum output of +18 dBu along with an unbalanced 1⁄4“
(6.3 mm) audio output with a maximum output of +12 dBu. A headphone output with headphone volume control shall be provi-
ded and shall utilize a 1⁄4“ (6.3 mm) stereo jack socket. The receiver shall have an Ethernet port (RJ45) for remote network-based
monitoring and control using the Sennheiser Wireless System Manager software. Two 50
O
BNC-type input sockets shall be provided
for connecting the antennas.
The receiver shall be menu-driven with a backlit LC display showing the current frequency, frequency bank and channel number,
metering of RF level, metering of AF level, lock status, pilot tone evaluation, equalizer setting, output gain, muting function, trans-
mitter type and battery status of the associated transmitter. An auto-lock feature shall be provided to prevent settings from being
accidentally altered. The receiver shall feature an integrated guitar tuner and shall provide a sound check mode.
The parameters of associated transmitters shall be configurable in the receiver menu and synchronized with the transmitters via an
integrated infrared interface.
Nominal/peak deviation shall be ±24 kHz/±48 kHz. Squelch threshold shall be defeatable (off) or adjustable adjustable from
5–25 dBμV in 2 dB steps.
