particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the
point where they exit from the apparatus.
• Only use attachments/accessories specified by the
manufacturer.
• Use only with the cart, stand, tripod, bracket,
or table specified by the manufacturer, or sold
with the apparatus. When a cart is used, use
caution when moving the cart/apparatus
combination to avoid injury from tip-over.
• Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when
unused for long periods of time.
• Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
Servicing is required when the apparatus has been
damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug
is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen
into the apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to
rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been
dropped.
This symbol is intended to alert the user to
the presence of uninsulated “dangerous
voltage” within the product’s enclosure
that may be of sufficient magnitude to
constitute a risk of electric shock to
persons.
This symbol is intended to alert the user to
the presence of important operating and
maintenance (servicing) instructions in
the literature accompanying the
appliance.
CAUTION
The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or
splashing. No objects filled with liquids, such as vases,
shall be placed on the apparatus.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock,
do not expose this apparatus to rain or
moisture.

Overview
The WD-850 is a UHF antenna divider for use with a Sony
UHF wireless microphone system.
Antenna signal output to up to four
receivers
This unit is equipped with a 2-channel divider circuit that
allows it to send the antenna signals received by two AN820A UHF antennas to up to four receivers. This makes it
possible to easily configure a multi-channel diversity
receiving system by connecting Sony MB-X6/8N tuner
base units or similar equipment.
Cascade output connectors allowing
simultaneous use of up to two WD-850
channel dividers
Connection of the unit’s cascade connectors to two WD850 channel dividers enables signal output to a maximum
of eight tuner base units.
2-channel antenna input connectors
This unit provides two connectors for each channel.
Increasing the number of antennas to four makes it
possible to extend the range of wireless microphone use.
Important notes on
operation
About the use of coaxial cable
5D-2V or a higher grade coaxial cable (50 ohms) is
recommended for connecting the antennas to the tuner or
antenna divider. Use of 5C-2V or higher grade (75 ohms)
is also possible.
Signal loss: 5D-2V 50 m (164 ft.): 12.5 dB
100 m (328 ft.): 25 dB
5C-2V 50 m (164 ft.): 13.5 dB
100 m (328 ft.): 27 dB
Since signal loss in coaxial cable is affected more by the
length of the cable than the difference between 50 ohms
and 75 ohms, the cable should be as short as possible.
Operating conditions
Operate within a temperature range of 0C° to +50C°
(+32F° to +122F°).
Power supplied to the AN-820A UHF
antenna
Power is supplied to the AN-820A UHF antenna’s booster
amplifier. Interference or distortion can be easily
eliminated by turning off the power to the booster
amplifier.
1U-size EIA rack mount
The unit can be mounted in an EIA standard 19-inch rack
(1U size).

Présentation
Le WD-850 est un diviseur d’antenne UHF destiné à être
utilisé avec le système de microphone sans fil UHF de
Sony.
Remarques importantes
sur le fonctionnement
A propos de l’utilisation du câble
Sortie de signal d’antenne vers un
maximum de quatre récepteurs
Cet appareil est équipé d’un circuit diviseur à 2 canaux qui
permet d’envoyer les signaux d’antenne reçus de deux
antennes UHF AN-820A vers un maximum de quatre
récepteurs. Ceci permet de configurer facilement un
système de réception à canaux multiples en connectant des
syntoniseurs MB-X6/8N Sony ou un équipement similaire.
Connecteurs de sortie cascade permettant
l’utilisation simultanée d’un maximum de
deux diviseurs de canaux WD-850
La connexion des connecteurs cascade aux deux diviseurs
de canaux WD-850 active la sortie de signal vers un
maximum de huit syntoniseurs.
Connecteurs d’entrée d’antenne à 2
canaux
Cet appareil est muni de deux connecteurs pour chaque
canal. Le fait d’augmenter le nombre d’antennes à quatre
permet d’élargir la portée d’utilisation du microphone sans
fil.
coaxial
L’utilisation d’un câble coaxial 5D-2V ou supérieur (50
ohms) est recommandé pour la connexion des antennes au
syntoniseur ou diviseur d’antenne. Vous pouvez
également utiliser un câble 5C-2V ou supérieur (75 ohms).
Perte de signal : 5D-2V 50 m : 12,5 dB
100 m : 25 dB
5C-2V 50 m : 13,5 dB
100 m : 27 dB
Etant donné que la longueur du câble affecte davantage la
perte de signal que la différence de 50 à 75 ohms, le câble
doit être le plus court possible.
Conditions de fonctionnement
Utilisez à une température comprise entre 0 ºC et +50 ºC.
Alimentation fournie à l’antenne UHF
AN-820A
L’alimentation est fournie à l’amplificateur de puissance
de l’antenne UHF AN-820A. Les interférences ou les
distorsions de son peuvent s’éliminer facilement en
mettant hors tension l’amplificateur de puissance.
Montage en rack EIA 1U
L’appareil peut être monté dans un rack standard EIA de
19 pouces (1U).
