Different frequency variants shall be available depending on country-speciﬁc regulations.

The receiver shall feature Bluetooth® Low Energy (BLE) at a frequency range between 2402 and 2480 MHz for remote controlling the devices via a control App for iOS and Android.

The receiver shall feature an automatic frequency setup function with spectrum scan functionality in order to establish an equidistant frequency grid with 146 channels in standard mode and 293 channels in Link Density Mode.

The audio frequency response shall be between 20 Hz and 20 kHz (-3 dB). Audio total harmonic distortion (THD) shall be ≤ -60 dB for 1 kHz @ -3 dBfs input level. Dynamic range shall be 134 dB. System latency shall be 1.9 ms.

The receiver shall be menu-driven with an OLED display showing the current frequency, channel number, metering of RF level, metering of AF level, lock status, muting function, antenna switching diversity, app connection, gain, audio output level, menu and battery status for each of the two associated transmitters. An auto-lock feature shall be provided to prevent settings from being accidentally altered.

The following settings shall be conﬁgurable by function buttons and an encoder for each channel in the menu: frequency, channel name, gain, trim, AF output, low cut, AES 256 encryption, test tone, network settings, integrated antenna booster settings, display brightness, device name, auto setup settings for automatic frequency setup.

For each of the two channels the receiver shall feature a balanced XLR-3M audio output with a maximum output of +18 dBu along with an unbalanced 6.3 mm (¼“) audio output with a maximum output of +12 dBu.

For secure transmission the receiver shall feature AES 256 encryption.

The receiver shall provide a walktest mode for monitoring the RF and AF signal status in the location over time.

Two BNC-type input sockets shall be provided for connecting the antennas. The receiver shall be usable with active and passive wide range UHF antennas for the entire supported RF spectrum.

6/7

A headphone output with headphone volume control shall be provided and shall utilize a 6.3 mm stereo jack socket.

The receiver shall have an Ethernet port (RJ-45) for remote network-based monitoring and control using the Sennheiser Control Cockpit software or the Sennheiser Wireless Systems Manager software.

The receiver shall operate on 12 V DC power supplied from the power supply unit or on Power over Ethernet (PoE IEEE

802.af Class 0). Power consumption shall be ≤ 1 A. The receiver shall have a rugged metal housing; dimensi-

ons shall be approximately 212 x 44 x 206 mm (8.35“ x 1.73“ x 8.11“). Weight shall be approximately 1000 grams (2.2 lbs) without antennas and power supply. Operating temperature shall range from −10 °C to +50 °C (+14 °F to +122 °F).

The receiver shall be the Sennheiser EW-DX EM 2.

EW-DX SKM-S handheld transmitter

The handheld transmitter shall be for use with a companion receiver as part of a digital wireless RF transmission system.

The handheld transmitter shall operate within the following UHF frequency ranges, with a switching bandwidth of up to 88 MHz: 470.2 – 550 MHz, 520 – 607.8 MHz, 606.2 –

693.8 MHz, 614.2 – 693.8 MHz, 630 – 693.8 MHz, 823.2 – 831.8 MHz, 863.2 – 846.8 MHz, 925.2 – 937.3 MHz, 941.7 – 951.8 MHz, 953.05 – 956.05 MHz, 956.65 – 959.65 MHz,

1350.2 – 1398.8 MHz, 1435.2 – 1524.8 MHz, 1785.2 – 1799.8 MHz. Different frequency variants shall be available depending on country-speciﬁc regulations.

Occupied bandwidth shall be 200 kHz. Transmit power (radiated) shall be 10 mW ERP (1785.2 – 1799.8 MHz Range: 12 mW ERP).

A programmable mute switch shall be provided for muting or unmuting either the audio signal or the radio signal. The mute switch can also be deactivated.

The handheld transmitter shall be menu-driven with a backlit eInk display showing the relevant status information such as frequency, battery status or AES 256 encryption status.

All transmitter parameters shall be adjustable with function buttons on the device itself or by Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) synchronization via the associated receiver. The function buttons shall be lockable against accidental misuse.

Power shall be supplied to the handheld transmitter by two

1.5 V AA size batteries or by one Sennheiser BA 70 rechargeable battery pack. Operating time shall be typically 12 hours with a battery pack and up to 8 hours with AA batteries.

The handheld transmitter shall feature charging contacts for direct charging of the transmitter with inserted BA 70 battery pack in a Sennheiser CHG 70N network-enabled charger.
