The CP Beam™ Antenna is a lightweight, circularly polarized beam antenna that doesn't drop out and is designed to ensure a consistent signal with in-ear monitors (IEMs), wireless microphone systems, and other UHF communication devices.
The CP Beam is easy to set up and transport - fitting in a 3RU rack drawer and weighing just 2.5 lbs - and compresses for easy storage (see the before and after compression). Unlike other bulky helical antennas that require flight cases, the CP Beam is quickly deployed and stowed.
The COMBINE8 IEM combiner brings together up to eight in-ear monitor transmitter signals into a single rear panel mounted antenna connector.
Any brand IEM set to transmit 50 mW or less may be used, as well as any type of directional antenna. It also provides DC power to up to 8 IEM transmitters with an external power supply, removing the need for wall warts.
IEM transmitter combination is important for multi-channel systems to minimize intermodulation artifacts arising from multiple adjacent transmitters interfering with one another.
Coaxial cabling can make the difference between flawless RF performance and total system failure. Even the slightest crimp or ding in coaxial cable can cause signals to drop sharply or short out.
RF Venue provides premium made in USA low loss, 50Ω RG8X coaxial cable with BNC male connectors for wireless audio applications. Cables are custom made to specifications: double shielded braid over foil with a perfect balance between loss and flexibility. All cables are terminated in-house and QC on calibrated Agilent network analyzers for guaranteed performance. RF Venue stocks a variety of lengths from 5' to 150'.
