DADM228 is a custom design offers Diversity Antenna distribution solution for portable sound bags or sound carts

Diversity Antenna Distribution Module DADM228 is a custom design, which offers the solution to antenna distribution requirements for portable sound bag and sound trolley applications. Designed for where the weight and size matters without sacrificing on performance. The DADM228 is a 2xIN and 2x8 OUT active antenna distribution system with in-built band-pass filtering; the DADM228 eliminates multiple receiver antennas and provides a tidy sound bag solution with improved RF performance. There are two industry standard BNC input connectors for antenna inputs which enables use of standard low loss RF extension cables, and there 2x8 mini-RF SMA connectors feeding the diversity receivers. The DADM228 has a very high input signal handling capacity with very low noise figure and offers an outstanding inter-modulation performance when compared to other low power devices available. The system box offers, +6dB to -10dB gain user adjustable in 1dB steps to suit individual applications. The user adjustable gain offers flexibility optimizing system RF gain budget to suit, Digital, Hybrid and Analogue receivers are available in our industry. In applications when remote antenna powering is needed, the DADM offers switchable MHA powering with RED LEDs indicating power ON/OFF status, the MHA powering can be turned ON/OFF through the OLED display menu. The antenna inputs compromise a very low loss very selective band-pass filter designs to reject unwanted frequencies below and above the tuning bandwidth. The DADM is externally powered between 10-18Vdc, the dc input connector is an industry standard 4-pin Hirose, a green LED indicates power-on status of the system box and the OLED display continuously displays dc input voltage. Audio Wireless Diversity Antenna and dc power distribution systems are now first choice among freelance sound engineers, hiring companies as well as major broadcasters for all wireless microphone applications.
