Sennheiser Spectera DAD Directional Antenna

The Sennheiser Spectera DAD (Digital Antenna Directional) is a transceiving directional antenna that carries in-ear signals, mic and line signals, and control data for a Spectera system at the same time.

Its RF components are built in, so the system needs no combiners, splitters, or boosters. A single Cat 5e or better network cable, up to 100 m long, links each DAD to the Base Station and powers it over PoE. Fiber converters extend the run further.

Frequency Bands

The DAD comes in a UHF version for 470 to 608 MHz and 630 to 698 MHz and a 1G4 version for 1350 to 1400 MHz and 1435 to 1525 MHz.

In Use

The antenna gives 5 dB of gain with a 65 degree vertical apex angle and a 15 dB front-to-back ratio. It manages interference continuously, and the system controls it remotely. It can also work as a fast, high-quality scanner. Its IP54 housing stands up to dust and splashing water.
