This 1/2U system comes ready installed with 4 UHF channels of Trantec S5.3 which can operate up to 12 simultaneous channels within an 11MHz window (854-865MHz). An antenna distribution unit is included, and built-in mains distribution provides power to each receiver and the ADU. For larger events a remote antenna kit is also available.
Both handheld and beltpack transmitters operate for up to 10 hours on a single AA battery, and computer monitoring software means that users benefit from realtime system status. "The S5.3 is already recognised for its versatile performance and is proving particularly popular with semi-pro bands and theatre productions. Despite its small proportions, the system promises a powerful set of features and is suitable for venues of any size," the company adds.
Trantec's head of sales and marketing, Mark Parkhouse says: "Our Racked'n'Ready systems have already earned a reputation for combining performance and reliability with the convenience of an easily portable package. Now, with the S5.3 Cube, we have developed a pint-size product that encompasses everything you need in a compact 1/2U mini flightcase. Our aim is to bring multi-channel professional wireless within everybody's reach and we are extremely pleased with the early interest shown from audio visual companies, DJs, schools and theatres."
