  • Page 2 OVERVIEW The SWASS-EXT Antenna Extension Kit is designed for use with Sabine SWM7000 2.4 GHz wireless microphone receivers and antenna distribution amplifiers. The SWASS- EXT allows for optimal placement of external antennas for maximum wireless performance. One SWASS-EXT kit can accommodate up to 70 receiver channels. (See block diagram detail on page 10).
  • Page 3 4 times, to 14 meters. With RG-8 cable, the maximum length is extended to 88 meters! Power for the Extension Antenna is delivered from any Sabine SWM7000 series receiver or SWA6SS Antenna Distribution Amplifier. An additional advantage of using Sabine’s SWASS-EXT Extension Antenna stems from its more focused, directional nature.

    Line-of-sight path Connect the SWASS-EXT “Left” and “Right” Antennas to either antenna input on your SWM7000 receiver or SWA6SS Antenna Distribution Amplifier. NOTE: SWASS- EXT antennas are sold in Left / Right pairs and must be installed as such. Do not install a “Right”...
  • Page 5: Mounting Instructions

    MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS SWASS-EXT Antennas can be permanently mounted on wall surfaces, or affixed to the top of microphone stands for convenient re-positioning. ICROPHONE TAND OUNTING Attach SWASS-EXT Antenna Kits to microphone stands and position stands in desired locations. Gently pry the wood-grained exterior case from the rest of the antenna as- sembly.
  • Page 6 OUNTING CAUTION: Be careful not to scratch or damage the interior components of the SWASS- EXT Antenna Kit. Interior components can be disassembled and reassembled using fin- gers. Do not use metal pliers, wrenches, screwdrivers or knives to unscrew or tighten interior antenna components to the metal antenna bracket frame.
  • Page 7 Replace the wood-grain antenna ex- terior case. SWASS-EXT-2 I NSTRUCTIONS The SWASS-EXT-2 has two features not found on the stan- dard SWASS-EXT: switchable gain and a phantom power LED indicator. 1. To switch gain settings, start by removing the cover.
  • Page 8: Installation Cautions

    Both of these facts mean such uses of the RF spectrum are less likely to cause interference with, or suffer from interference from the use of, Sabine’s systems. Your first step in checking for interference should be utilizing the Scan function in the SWM7000 Remote Control Software.
  • Page 9 Fortu- nately, Sabine systems are only affected by such ovens in close proximity to receiver antennas. That protection, plus the availability of 70 different RF channels to choose from, makes serious interference problems arising from microwave ovens avoidable and un- likely.
  • Page 10 SWASS-EXT “Left” External Antenna SWASS-EXT “Right” External Antenna NOTE: SWASS-EXT antennas are sold in Left / Right pairs and must be installed as such. Do not install a “Right” antenna with another “Right” an- tenna; or conversely, a “Left” antenna with other another “Left” antenna.
