RF Venue DFINWDISTRO4 Antenna Distribution System with White Diversity Fin Antenna

This package from RF Venue is the DFINWDISTRO4 which bundles the Diversity Fin White with their DISTRO4 model into one package. The patented Diversity Fin® is a multi-purpose antenna for wireless microphones that reduces dropouts using a cross-polarized, hybrid design. It combines one LPDA and one dipole antenna in an orthogonal (right angle) configuration. One element captures vertically polarized waves, and the other horizontally polarized waves—doing the same job as two “shark fin” paddles while greatly improving RF and audio performance.

The Diversity Fin Antenna is the flagship RF Venue wireless microphone antenna; it's portable, simple to operate, and capable of pushing diversity microphone systems to the limits of their performance while excelling in tough RF environments.

The DISTRO4 portion of this bundle distributes diversity RF and DC power across four wireless microphone receivers of any brand. A true “distribution amplifier,” DISTRO4 splits signals from two antennas (or one Diversity Fin) connected to the rear panel and amplifies them before delivering the signals to multiple receivers in a rack. An additional cascade port is included for daisy chaining multiple units together to accommodate up to 16 receivers per antenna pair.

DISTRO4 features a 2000 mA internal power supply (no wall wart) and compares to antenna distributors twice its price. It includes all RF and DC power cables needed to connect a 4 channel wireless microphone system as well as cascade to one additional DISTRO4.
