Optimizing Performance RF Interference An X2 Digital transmission is not susceptible to interference in the traditional ‘analog’ wireless sense. An X2 receiver will only pass digi- tal data that originated from an X2 transmitter set to the same operating channel. If this transmitter has a custom encryption scheme, a standard X2 receiver will no longer be able to recognize or reproduce the signal.

Q-DiversityPLUS™ Frequency Diversity Technology What is it? A dual-frequency broadcast system that maximizes data isolation from undesired interference. It can also be thought of as two completely separate ‘true-diversity’ systems operating in tandem. RX 1 and 4 work together to receive the lower frequency while RX 2 and 3 work together to receive the upper frequency.
