Areas of application

The SKM 500 G2 radiomicrophone family can be combined with receivers of the ew 500 G2 series (EM 500 G2 rack- mount receiver or EK 500 G2 bodypack receiver). The receivers are available in the same five UHF frequency ranges and are equipped with the same channel bank system with factory-preset frequencies. An advantage of the factory-preset frequencies is that

ya transmission system is ready for immediate use after switch-on,

yseveral transmission systems can be operated simultane- ously on the preset frequencies without causing intermo- dulation interference.

Together with a matching receiver, the radiomicrophone is suitable for the following areas of application:
