      CP Architectural Antenna™

      MAP: $649 USD

      The greatest and easiest improvement you can make to your IEM system is to deploy a CP antenna. The CP Architectural Antenna provides all of the benefits of RF Venue’s antenna in an elegant, almost invisible enclosure. It is a high performance antenna for installed in-ear monitor systems (IEMs). Featuring a slim profile enclosure, the CP Architectural Antenna can be installed on a wall or ceiling and can be painted to match any interior. Unlike LPDA or “paddle” antennas with a fixed polarization, the CP Architectural Antenna uses a unique circularly polarized design to provide excellent transmit signal coverage for IEMs with a highly polished and professional look that room designers and architects appreciate.

      Key Features & Benefits

      Circularly Polarized for a consistent signal A fluctuating signal leads to noise and dropouts
      Slim Profile Blends into any background
      High Performance Eliminates the most common interference problems, thus reducing dropouts

      About the Product

      • Bad IEM performance are one of the most troublesome problems for musicians and distracting them from their performance
      • The CP Architectural antenna builds on the highly acclaimed foldable CP Beam antenna, eliminating the most common signal dropouts while reducing noise and interference. 
      • The CP Architectural antenna installs in minutes, with a wall or ceiling-mounted rear plate that is pre-drilled with multiple mounting hole options. The rear plate then simply connects to the front plate, secured with the included mounting screws. Simply connect the rear-mounted BNC terminated coaxial cable to your in-wall or in-ceiling coaxial cable run and the CP Architectural is ready for use.
      • Featuring a slim profile enclosure, the CP Architectural Antenna can be installed on a wall or ceiling and can be painted to match any interior. 
      • Unlike LPDA or “paddle” antennas with a fixed polarization, the CP Architectural Antenna uses a unique circularly polarized design to provide consistent transmit signal strength for IEMs with a highly polished and professional look that room designers and architects appreciate.
      • Covers the largest stages
      • Works with all brands 
      • Target audience: Ideally suited for houses of worship and other installed IEM venues, the CP Architectural Antenna fits any interior design and delivers professional RF performance in the same sleek industrially designed enclosure as the popular Diversity Architectural Antenna for wireless microphones.

      Most Common Questions Asked

      What is the CP Architectural Antenna designed for?

      The CP Architectural Antenna is designed to make up for the shortcomings of IEM beltpacks. It provides all of the benefits of helical antennas in a lightweight, durable, folding form-factor. Helical or “multi-polarized” antennas provide higher gain due to their coverage pattern (narrow beam width), and superior protection against interference due to the circular polarization of the antenna element.

      Why do circularly polarized (CP) antennas outperform paddle antennas? 

      CP antennas are overwhelmingly the antenna of choice for IEM transmission because the circular motion of the RF field emitted distributes the signal through all possible polarization angles. This removes the greatest risk of dropouts and noise, as most IEM belt packs are limited to a single whip antenna.

      How do I set up a CP Architectural Antenna for my IEM system?  

      For the best performance and easiest setup, when using multiple channels of IEM they should be connected to a combiner and then transmitted via a single CP antenna using the lowest gain setting that reliably works on your transmitters.
