The benefits of a helical antenna (CP Beam) vs. a whip antenna: 

  • Provides constant signal regardless of IEM receiver position
  • Not buried in a rack – better signal with line of sight to IEMs 
  • Focused beam signal – for better reception compared to omnidirectional 

To use, disconnect straps and extend CP Beam. Connect coaxial cable (not included) to receiver, transmitter, or antenna combiner. Provides up to 9 dB of antenna gain. 

Reduce the impact of dropouts due to the changing position of the IEM bodypack

For IEM systems, getting a good signal to the bodypack receiver is essential. One barrier to great reception is that many belt-pack receivers don’t support diversity reception--which is to say they have only a single antenna. This makes these receivers much more likely to encounter dropouts and multi-path fades than the dual antenna diversity systems common in microphones and higher end IEMs. The belt-pack is also in motion, and can change orientation depending on body position. Plus, the pack sits beside or behind the talent, requiring the signal to pass through or alongside the performer's body, which is nontransparent for RF energy.

The CP Beam 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. 

 The CP Beam antenna is compatible with UHF wireless microphones, UHF in-ear monitors, UHF IFBs and UHF and 900 MHz intercoms. 

 The CP Beam is perfectly suited for any brand UHF broadcast band (470-698 MHz) in-ear monitor that accepts external antennas at the transmitter.
