This turnkey package conveniently bundles the black Diversity Fin antenna with wall mount bracket (for permanent installations) with an active, half-rack, 5-channel splitter capable of splitting the RF signals from the antenna's A and B diversity connections, amplifying them, and sending them to multiple receivers. The package also includes a pair of black 25' coaxial low-loss antenna cables as well as a 10-pack of 1.5' low-loss coaxial cables to distribute the RF signal. The included DC Octopus cable distributes 12 VDC power to the receivers, eliminating wall warts and the need for dedicated rack power distribution.

Do you need to buy 2 of these or will 1 work? How many wireless receivers will 1 antenna supply RF for?
Asked by: kurt
There are two antennae (omni and directional) in the RF Venue Diversity Fin Antenna with Stand Mount for Wireless Microphone Systems, with two BNC output connections, so a single unit will serve the function of two antennae. The number of receivers relies on implementing an appropriate antenna distribution system and is usually between 1-8 receivers.

Why does it not have a gain switch to account for the signal loss within the BNC cable?
Asked by: Bryan
The RF Venue Diversity Fin Antenna with Stand Mount for Wireless Microphone Systems (Black, 470 to 698 MHz) does not include a gain feature as it is a passive antenna. Active antennas can pose risks such as overloading the RF front end of a receiver system, and you can easily overload by using an active antenna’s gain control at a setting that is disproportionally strong for the cable run’s length. A good practice would be to implement passive antennas, and then only add in-line amplifiers to make up for transmission line loss if doing very long cable runs of more than 100 feet.

Can I use this with Lectrosonics systems and if so, how do I hook it up to my transmitter/receiver/mixer?
Asked by: Jens
Yes, the RF Venue Diversity Fin Antenna with Stand Mount for Wireless Microphone Systems is compatible for use with Lectrosonics wireless receivers operating within the 470-608MHz range. The Diversity Fin has two BNC connections onboard for connecting to corresponding receiver antenna outputs. If you are using multiple receivers, you can connect them all to a single diversity fin using an antenna distribution system. BH #RFDFINDISTRO RF Venue 4-Channel Antenna Distributor with Cloth-Covered Diversity Fin Antenna and Cables Bundle is a good option for this scenario: https://bhpho.to/34K2Fcy

Can you use one element at a time in non-diversity mode? E.G. I want to use only the LDPA antenna on occassion
Asked by: Ben
Yes, you can use one element at a time because there are separate A and B outputs on the RF Venue Diversity Fin Antenna with Stand Mount for Wireless Microphone Systems (Black, 470 to 698 MHz).

Can this item be mounted on a standard C-stand stud?
Asked by: kurt
Yes, the RF Venue Diversity Fin Antenna with Stand Mount can be mounted on a standard C-stand stud. You will need a 5/8" receiver adapter with a male thread on the other end. The antenna features a mounting block with 1/4"-20, 3/8"-16, and 5/8"-27 threads to secure it on the stand, so you have plenty of flexibility for the adapter. The Manfrotto 014-38 Rapid Adapter - 5/8" Stud to 3/8" Thread (B&H # MA01438) is one example of an adapter that can be used.
