Sennheiser Wireless Microphone System Transmitter

Discover the rugged, professional-grade transmitter that powers performances on stage, in rehearsals, and during tours. Built by Sennheiser, this wireless microphone system transmitter combines durable metal housing with thoughtful design to ensure reliable signal delivery, flexible mounting, and easy operation under demanding live conditions. Whether you’re operating as a standalone unit or integrating into a full rack setup, this transmitter is engineered to stay cool under pressure, deliver crisp audio, and endure the rigors of constant travel. Its precision construction, removable antenna, and user-friendly front panel make it a cornerstone for performers, technicians, and sound engineers who demand consistency, clarity, and longevity from every wireless connection.

• Rugged metal housing for demanding environments
  The transmitter is built to withstand the realities of live performance, studio rehearsals, and on-the-road use. The metal enclosure provides robust protection against bumps, vibrations, and the rigors of frequent setup and teardown. This durability translates into fewer damaged units on tour and more reliable uptime for your show. A solid, shielded chassis helps minimize interference from nearby equipment and stage noise, while staying lightweight enough to transport easily. For engineers and technicians, the durable build means fewer mid-tour replacements and more time fine-tuning your sound rather than troubleshooting hardware.
• Flexible mounting: standalone or rack-ready
  Designed for versatility, this transmitter excels whether you’re deploying a compact, portable rig or building a full front-of-house rack system. Use it as a standalone unit for quick setups at small venues or when space is at a premium. When your system scales up, pair it with the optional rack mount kit to create a clean, professional rack installation. The ability to switch between configurations without sacrificing performance makes this transmitter ideal for touring productions, corporate events, and venues with varying installation requirements.
• Removable BNC antenna for adaptable placement
  The included removable BNC antenna provides flexible placement options to optimize coverage and minimize potential interference. With a detachable antenna, you can tailor the layout to fit the venue, room geometry, or stage design — whether you’re pushing signal to a long distance, needing to clear line-of-sight paths, or mounting the transmitter in a tight rack. Removability also simplifies transport and service, allowing technicians to swap or upgrade antennas quickly in the field without disassembling the entire system.
• Backlit front panel for visibility in dim venues
  The front panel is intelligently backlit to ensure critical controls and status indicators are legible during concerts, rehearsals, and dark-loaded performances. This feature reduces the time spent fumbling for the right button in low light, helping operators adjust frequency, power, or channel while performers stay focused on their performance. The readability extends to quick diagnostics on stage, enabling faster troubleshooting and fewer delays between takes.
• Reliable performance with professional-grade features
  Engineered for high-demand environments, the transmitter delivers clean audio with low latency and dependable channel stability. Its thoughtful design supports the needs of professional performers and technicians who rely on consistent wireless reliability. The unit integrates smoothly with Sennheiser ecosystems and other compatible systems, offering predictable performance across venues, from intimate clubs to expansive arenas. Its durable construction and user-friendly controls empower crews to manage complex wireless networks with confidence, ensuring the show goes on without interruption.
