Choosing a Wireless System

Sennheiser’s evolution wireless G3 line is available in three performance grades – ew 100 G3,

ew 300 G3, and ew 500 G3. All three lines are fully compatible, sharing identical RF technology with 1,680 tunable frequencies, 30 mW of output power and True Diversity reception on all rackmount receivers. Every component features Sennheiser’s proprietary HDX™ compander circuitry for crystal-clear audio, and an innovative infrared sync that allows the receiver to quickly program the transmitter to a new frequency. With the press of the SYNC button, the receiver transfers the desired frequency into the transmitter, greatly simplifying the setup process.

Looking beyond the shared core RF platform, each series offers unique features that address increasingly complex multi-channel applications. The ew 100 G3 series offers streamlined, portable wireless solutions. The ew 300 G3 series enhances control with integrated mute functions and remote control over Ethernet. The ew 500 G3 series delivers with Sennheiser’s top-of-the-line mic capsules and lavalier elements, for the best possible audio quality.

One of the most important considerations in selecting the right wireless series for an application is the number of channels required. G3 systems offer 20 “Banks” of coordinated frequency presets, known as “Channels.” For reliable operation, all systems in a given frequency range should be set to the same Bank, each to a unique available Channel. The number of Channels per Bank increases with the series, up to 32 per bank in ew 500 G3. Larger multi-channel systems will be easier to set up and coordinate with the more advanced series, like ew 500 G3.

One of the more powerful features found in ew 300 and ew 500 G3 systems is an Ethernet RJ 45 port, which allows users to remotely program and monitor their systems using Sennheiser’s Wireless Systems Manager software, on either a Mac or PC. When interconnected with an Ethernet switch, ew 300 and 500 series systems can also perform a networked Easy Setup, distributing the results of a common scan to all connected receivers - resulting in faster setup and coordination.
