The SK 100 G3 bodypack transmitter The SK 100 G3 bodypack transmitter The SK 100 G3 bodypack transmitter is part of the evolution wireless series generation 3 (ew G3). With this series, Sennheiser offers high-quality state-of-the-art RF transmission systems with a high level of operational reliability and ease of use. Transmitters and receivers permit wireless transmission with studio-quality sound.
The SK 100 G3 bodypack transmitter Areas of application The bodypack transmitter can be combined with the EM 100 G3 stationary receiver. The EM 100 G3 stationary receiver is available in the same UHF frequency ranges and is equipped with the same frequency bank system. This has the advantage that • a transmission system is ready for immediate use after switch-on, • several transmission systems can be operated simultaneously on the preset frequencies without causing intermodulation interference.
