RF Venue Debuts DISTRO5 HDR Power Distribution System for Any Mic
RF Venue launched the DISTRO5 HDR, its next-generation antenna and power distribution system for any brand or model wireless microphone system. Building on the success of the RF Venue DISTRO4, RF Venue says the DISTRO5 HDR uses low noise figure amplifiers and a gain structure to deliver high dynamic range (HDR) across the wireless microphone spectrum.
The company says the DISTRO5 HDR delivers buffered antenna signals to up to five wireless mic receivers from a compact half-rack footprint and allows up to nine channels in a 1RU space from a pair of cascaded DISTRO5 HDRs. Multiple DISTRO5 HDR units can be cascaded together for higher channel counts.
Here’s a video of the DISTRO5 HDR we shot at InfoComm 2024:
In addition to low-noise RF signal distribution across the 470-698 MHz band, RF Venue says the DISTRO5 HDR is a capable power distribution system for wireless microphone receivers or other 12V DC rack equipment. The available Octopus power cable uses the DISTRO5’s robust internal power supply to provide up to 5 amps of DC current to power devices, eliminate wall warts and save rack space. The DISTRO5 HDR also features a 12V DC power input for battery-powered operation for mobile sound cart applications.
The DISTRO5 HDR, which ships now at a MAP of $899, is also available in turnkey 5-Channel Wireless Mic Packs.
