    Diversity Architectural Antenna™

    MAP: $649 USD

    The new Diversity Architectural Antenna by RF Venue is a high-performance antenna system for wireless microphones that helps avoid wireless dropouts. It features a slim profile enclosure so that the Diversity Architectural Antenna can be installed in any position on a wall or ceiling, and you can paint it to match any interior so it blends in. We use a unique patent-pending dual-feed antenna design that includes both A and B diversity connections, so there is no need to install two separate antennas for your system for wireless microphones. This helps you avoid drops from your wireless microphones, and it gives the venue a more professional look.

    What Our Customers Have to Say

    "The Diversity Architectural Antenna was such a great addition to our tool belt. It’s paintable, so we can make it fit any color scheme, and its slim design means it can fit anywhere. The Diversity Architectural Antenna delivers on aesthetics while also doing its core job of making sure that this new area of the church never has a wireless dropout.”

    Anthony Stowell, Director of Integrations at Clear ProAV

     

    "In the gym with the antennas needing to be located between 10 and 12 feet above the floor and near the basketball hoops, an antenna there will get hit. Using the Diversity Architectural Antenna, we know it’ll survive this environment nicely. They work perfectly anywhere you put them

    Joe Fertitta, CEO/President of CueBlue

     

    “The D-ARC’s 150-degree flood-type pattern gave us the focused coverage we needed to keep all those channels of wireless audio clear. The combination of the D-ARC and the Bandpass Filters means we start every event with a very robust RF infrastructure. We’ve gone from having RF interference issues at 25 percent of our events to none at all this season.”

    John Nuzzo, Integrity Sound Solutions’ President 

    Product Setup

    The Diversity Architectural Antenna takes minutes to install, with its rear-mounted plate that comes pre-drilled with multiple options for a mounting hole. The rear plate easily connects to the front plate and is secured with screws. Then, all you need to do to finish installing this antenna system for wireless microphones is connect the two rear-mounted BNC-terminated coaxial cables to your coaxial cable run and the Diversity Architectural Antenna.

    Most Common Questions Asked

    How does this antenna compare to the DFIN?

    More aesthetically pleasing look. Intended for use indoors and has slightly lower gain with a conical pattern.

    In what situations would you not recommend ceiling mounting the D-ARC?

    Ceiling height must be considered when you want to use multi-zone and when you want to exclude things like interference from other items in the room/area.

    What types of paint can be used to customize the D-ARC?

    All except anything with metal in it (put in microwave to know if there’s metal in it).
