What are the attributes of wireless microphone antennas?
Antenna Types Most products ship with 1/4-inch wave antennas to be mounted directly on the receiver or the rack mount hardware. These 1/4-inch wave antennas are not ground independent, meaning that they cannot be mounted remotely at the end of a run of coaxial cable. For remote mounting, use 1/4-inch wave or directional Log Periodic antennas such as the FA-GW, CLA series or the LPA500. Remote Mounting Antennas should be mounted with a direct line-of-sight to the performance area. Whenever possible, that also means above the cast and crew, so mounting antennas ten feet in the air at the side of the stage is one of the best places for them. All coaxial cable has signal loss, so keep the cable runs to minimum and use low loss cables to keep the maximum performance range. The CXU cables from EV use very low loss cables that will help maintain range. Antenna Distribution When racking multiple receivers together, it is best to use an antenna distribution system like the APD4+. The APD4+ prov
