The CP Stage is a compact, circularly-polarized antenna designed specifically for wireless microphones and in-ear monitors. It is housed in a lightweight yet durable weather-resistant enclosure, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.

The antenna can be easily connected to any standard microphone stand, providing a secure connection to and boosting signal quality for both in-ear monitors and microphones.

The CP Stage is designed to operate between 470 and 928 MHz. This range covers North American UHF band frequencies 470-698, European 823-832 and 863-865 MHz bands and the 902-928 MHz ISM band.

With a small amount of forward gain, the CP Stage is best set up with the RF Venue logo side facing your wireless microphones or in-ear monitors. Do not point the CP Stage edgewise like an LPDA (paddle) type antenna, as this will reduce signal level.

For best results, make sure the CP Stage maintains line of sight, free from obstructions or people. When used for transmitting in-ear monitors, keep receive antennas for wireless microphones in the side null of the CP Stage and maintain a minimum distance of six feet.

KEY FEATURES:

• built for Better IEMs: unreliable IEMs are a disaster for live performers. The CP Stage out performs paddle antennas. Circular polarization provides a consistent signal to IEM body packs regardless of performer orientation.
• circular polarization: unlike "paddle" or "fin" antennas, CP Stage features a low profile circularly polarized element that delivers optimal 360º signal for IEM bodypacks and wireless microphones.
• ruggedized IP-Rated enclosure: built to withstand permanent outdoor installation and the abuse of global tours and flypacks, the CP Stage will remain protected in case of weather, mic stand falls or other mishaps on the road.

Note: for an in-ear monitor system, one CP Stage Antenna is required, but for wireless microphones, two CP Stages are needed for diversity receivers.
