    Recommendations on antenna mounting Option 2: Combining multiple links to one AWM 2/ AWM 4 With this option, passive antenna combiners can be used together with the AWM 2 or the AWM 4 in order to combine the antenna signals of several receivers.
  • Page 44: Combining Up To 4 Links Using The Awm 2

    (connected to antenna combiner) The illustration indicates which SMA and R-SMA connectors the ca- bles need to have. You can either use Sennheiser CL 5/10 extension cables together with SMA to R-SMA adapters or you can make your own low-loss cables with the respective couplings.
  • Page 45: Combining Up To 8 Links Using The Awm 4

    (connected to antenna combiner) The illustration indicates which SMA and R-SMA connectors the ca- bles need to have.

  • Page 46: Signal Loss Due To Extension Cables And Antenna Combiners

    You can compensate this signal loss by configuring the transmission pow- er of the receiver accordingly. Observe the following minimum transmis- sion power settings (SL Rack Receiver DW: System Settings menu -> RF Power) for the respective cable lengths. The antenna combiner produces a signal loss which is equivalent to 15 m of extension cable.
