509162 - Overview

The Future of Wireless Pro Audio is here - And it's Bidirectional.
Sennheiser's Spectera Base Station features up to 64 channels (32 in / 32 out) in a single unit, Spectera is the world's first wideband, bidirectional digital wireless ecosystem, providing audio professionals with unparalleled capability and flexibility. Spectera's 11 Audio Link modes give you unprecedented control of latency, audio quality and more for each link, while its bidirectional bodypacks manage both in-ear monitor and mic/line signals simultaneously.

Up to 64 Channels in a Single Rack Unit
Spectera's space-saving 1RU base station features flexible digital I/O with redundant Dante and optional redundant Madi, assuring seamless integration into your audio network. Spectera's transceiving antennas manage IEM signals, mic/line signals, and data simultaneously and up to four antennas can be added for redundancy, extended zone coverage, or additional spectrum capacity. Spectera's simultaneous 32 I/O enables advanced flexibility for wireless mic, instruments, and in-ear monitoring applications in a single system. Configurations are completely flexible and can include up to 32 mic/line channels and 16 stereo IEMs serving your talent on stage or 32 interruptible foldback (IFB) across your crew.

Revolutionary Reliability
At the heart of Spectera is Sennheiser's remarkable wireless multichannel audio technology (WMAS) and its unique modulation and multiplexing capabilities, which make Spectera vastly more resistant to dropouts and RF fading than narrowband systems. Spectera also features built-in redundancy where it matters most: redundant power supplies, redundant Dante and optional redundant MADI audio I/O, and the ability to connect multiple antennas for redundancy, additional zone coverage, or additional spectrum capacity.

This includes the ZONE 02 North American UHF 470-608 and 657-663 Mhz frequency range activation license. Activated via the LinkDesk software.
