The Redback® C 8870F UHF wireless microphone system receiver uses PLL synthesised technology, ensuring a consistent and clear microphone signal with minimal dropout and noise interference. 16 selectable UHF channels, allow interference free operation in a multi system environment. True diversity operation ensures excellent reception quality, whilst a noise reduction system automatically compensates for high level sound inputs thus avoiding distortion. A range in excess of 100m is possible in ideal conditions. Output is via 3 pin XLR balanced or 6.35mm unbalanced. Power and the active channel (A or B) LED indication are provided on the front panel. Includes power supply.

Rack mounting options: A single unit can be mounted into 1RU rack space using a pair of C 8871 rack mounting ears. Two units can be mounted side by side into 1RU rack space using the included mounting hardware.
