Moderate to advanced |
Minimal level of AV knowledge |
| Operation time | Up to 12h | Up to 12h | Up to 8h | Up to 18h |
| Remote monitoring and control | No network connector - Sennheiser Control Cockpit or 3rd party applications cannot be used for maintenance and control |
Good level of integration and control. Sennheiser Control Cockpit and 3rd party applications integration. No bi-directional communication between transmitters and receivers, so full remote control is not possible | Limited level of control and monitoring via Sennheiser Control Cockpit and 3rd party applications | Bi-directional communcation between transmitters and receivers - full remote control/monitoring via Sennheiser Control Cockpit /Media Control for the campus-wide audio applications |
| Frequency coordination | Frequency coordination might be needed - if a frequency is disturbed, a new frequency has to be selected manually | Frequency coordination might be needed - if a frequency is disturbed, a new frequency has to be selected manually | Frequency coordination is needed - if a frequency is disturbed, a new frequency has to be selected manually |
Automatic interference management – no frequency coordination needed |
| Channel count | Equidistant frequency spacing allows to fit more channels per band. Standard channel count estimate is up to 90 channels per band | Equidistant frequency spacing allows to fit more channels per band. Standard channel count estimate is up to 146 channels in Standard Mode and up to 293 in LD mode | Up to 32 channels per band |
Channel count varies depending on the region - up to 20 channels in Europe; up to 10 channels per room in the US |
| Encryption | No | Secure content transmission with AES-256 encryption | No | Secure content transmission with AES-256 encryption |
