The selection of a suitable booster frequency range depends on several
factors:
Required number of transmission links
Sufficient number of unused frequency presets
Sufficient number of transmitters of the correct type (in this example,
transmitters of type B1–B4 or B5–B8, see page 39)
Recommended transmission mode “HD” or “LR”:
HD (High Definition)”: Transmission of an audio signal without audio
data compression. As a result, the audio signal remains pure and
unadulterated. In “HD” transmission mode, the range can be restricted
compared to “LR” transmission mode.
LR (Long Range)”: Transmission of an audio signal whose bit rate is
reduced – before transmission – by an audio data compression tech-
nique (SeDAC, Sennheiser Digital Audio Codec). This compression tech-
nique provides excellent audio quality and a large transmission range.
The sensitivity to interference is reduced compared to “HD” transmis-
sion mode.
Let us assume that you want to set up 8 transmission links and transmit
in “HD” transmission mode with the maximum possible transmission
range.
Have a look at interference zoneHD” (see also above diagram): All
booster frequency ranges except for B6 provide a sufficient number of
unused frequency presets.
Example 1:
8 t
ran
smitters of type B1–B4
Let us assume that you have 8 transmitters of type B1–B4:
You can use any of the booster frequency ranges B1–B4 but you should
select the booster frequency range with the highest number of unused fre-
quency presets: B1.
