This Sennheiser EW-DX EM 4 DANTE 4-Channel Digital Rackmount Receiver Kit from B&H combines an EW-DX EM 4 DANTE four-channel rackmount receiver with four EW-DX TS 3-Pin wireless tablestand transmitters and four MEG 14-40 gooseneck microphones, creating a complete wireless-mic system for 4-people meetings, presentations, or conferences.
The Sennheiser EW-DX EM 4 DANTE is four-channel digital wireless receiver with Dante networking capabilities housed in a rugged, all-metal single-rackspace chassis built to withstand the rigors of professional use and rigorously engineered to meet the needs of demanding professionals working in business and educational settings, houses of worship, or on stage.
The wide 80 MHz tuning range, intelligent switching diversity, auto-scan, equidistant tuning grid, and Link Density mode work to provide rock-solid wireless performance and massive channel counts, even in challenging RF environments. Bluetooth capabilities allow you to remotely sync components and change settings from your phone using the Smart Assist app, while Sennheiser's Control Cockpit and Wireless Systems Manager software provide computer-based control for more extensive networked setups. The EW-DX EM 4 DANTE receiver is compatible with the EW-DX bodypack and handheld transmitters and backward-compatible with EW-D components.
- The EW-DX EM4 DANTE operates in the UHF band, far away from potential Wi-Fi interference in the 2.4 GHz band.
- The UHF transmission greatly enhances range (up to 330') and the wide 80 MHz bandwidth gives you the ability to find a clean channel from 3200 available frequencies.
- Intelligent Switching Diversity offers effective protection against multipath and other anomalies that cause RF interference. The system compares incoming signals on two independent antennas and receiver circuits to ensure optimal wireless quality. The receiver switches between antennas only during header data as to never affect the audio information.
- Sennheiser's equidistant tuning grid removes the need for frequency coordination and enables you to operate up to 134 mic channels simultaneously.
- For complex systems requiring even more mics, engage the Link Density mode for up to 269 channels on the same system.
- AES-256 encryption keeps your transmissions private and safely protected from unauthorized users.
- The EW-DX EM 4 DANTE receiver offers intuitive front-panel controls and dual high-contrast OLED screens with meters for RF, battery status of the associated transmitter, and audio output that make setup a breeze.
- The auto-scan function automatically seeks out the cleanest available frequency for you.
- The receiver pairs with the transmitter via Bluetooth from up to 120' away, enabling you to quickly pair the mic directly from the stage without having to bring it close to the receiver.
- The back panel houses four balanced XLR outputs and four unbalanced 1/4" outputs for direct connection to any PA system or mixing board.
- The unit features a built-in universal power supply and comes with a kit for rackmount installation.
- With the Smart Assist app (free download available separately) installed on your Android/iOS phone/tablet, the power of Bluetooth connectivity puts full control of the EW-D EM 4 DANTE right in the palm of your hand. Use your mobile device to connect via Bluetooth for efficient operation and monitoring of your system.
- Sennheiser's Control Cockpit software for Windows allows you to view all the devices across your network, check the microphones in use, monitor battery life, troubleshoot problems, and adjust settings.
- For larger setups, Sennheiser's Wireless Systems Manager provides frequency planning and coordination and real-time monitoring of RF and audio levels. It also allows you to import frequency scans from third-party devices and conduct walk tests and receiver bandwidth scans.
- The system supports third-party interface plug-ins for easy integration into any controlled environment.
- Dante ports allow you to integrate the receiver into your Dante network and distribute the digital audio anywhere you need it in your facility.
- The rear-mounted, 1/4-wave detachable antennas can be upgraded to longer, 1/2-wave dipole antennas (available separately) for added range and reliability; you can also choose an ADA UHF Active Antenna or the AWM Wallmount Antenna as well.
- For setups with multiple receivers, the EW-D ASA Splitter allows you to split and distribute a dual-antenna signal across four receivers for clearer reception without the intermodulation problems that can occur when multiple antennas are used.
Compatible with EW-DX wireless receivers, the Sennheiser EW-DX TS 3-PIN is a digital wireless tablestand transmitter with a 3-pin XLR input connector designed to accommodate a wide range of Sennheiser gooseneck microphones equipped with a 3-pin XLR output connector.
Ideal for use where wired mics are impractical, this tablestand transmitter is designed for quick setup and tear down, and can be put away on the CHG 2W inductive charging station (available separately) for in-device charging the included BA 40 battery when the transmitter is not in use.
- The mute button can be configured for Momentary or Push-to-Talk/Push-to-Mute operation, with a bicolor LED indicating the mute status.
- The button can be locked out and overridden from the receiver or a mobile device during a talk.
- The EW-DX TS 3-PIN is equipped with a 3-pin XLR input connector for Sennheiser 3-pin XLR gooseneck mics.
- The transmitter operates up to 11 hours on a fully charged BA 40 lithium-ion rechargeable battery pack (included)—inductive charging with CHG 2W Wireless Power Transmitter (available separately).
- AES 256-bit encryption offers a secure transmission.
- With 134 dB dynamic range on its input, the tablestand transmitter can easily handle loud and soft voices without requiring any gain adjustment.
- The EW-DX system utilizes an equidistant tuning grid that equally spaces 3200 frequencies across its wide 80 MHz bandwidth to prevent disruptive intermodulation issues that occur when multiple transmitters operate in confined spaces.
- The system can be expanded with multiple transmitters and receivers to offer up to 134 channels in equidistant tuning grid mode, and up to 269 channels in Link Density mode.
- The EW-DX TS 3-PIN is backward-compatible with EW-D receivers.
The Sennheiser MEG 14-40 is a 15.7” gooseneck microphone designed to provide intelligible speech reproduction for lectures, conferences, meetings, and houses of worship. It features an XLR 3-pin connector, which is compatible with most standard microphone preamps.
Its KE 10 capsule features a directional cardioid polar pattern and yields a frequency response of 50 Hz to 20 kHz. RF shielding protects against interference from wireless devices, giving you a cleaner signal. The flexible 15.7” gooseneck allows precise placement in front of the spokesperson. No batteries are needed to power the MEG 14-40; it operates on 12 to 48V phantom power.
