Sennheiser EW 500 G4-935 Wireless Handheld Microphone System with MMD 935 Capsule (AS: 520 to 558 MHz)

The Sennheiser EW 500 G4-935 is an easy-to-use rackmount wireless handheld microphone system with professional-level features for enhanced reliability and control. It offers variable RF power, an exceptionally wide tuning range, Ethernet networking for multi-channel setups, and an intuitive interface with an OLED display and jog wheel. The system delivers high-quality, reliable audio to presenters, clergy, lecturers, and performers working in business and educational settings, houses-of-worship, theaters, or on musical stages.

The EW 500 G4-935 includes a true-diversity, half-rack receiver housed in a rugged, full-metal chassis. The receiver's auto-scan function searches an 88 MHz UHF tuning range with 3520 selectable frequencies, seeking a clean, interference-free channel for your audio transmission. The high-contrast OLED display with automatic dimming and a convenient jog wheel allow you to make quick adjustments, even in low-light situations.

This system includes an SKM 500 G4 handheld transmitter equipped with an interchangeable MMD 935 dynamic cardioid mic capsule optimized for speech and vocals. The handheld transmitter provides up to 8 hours of operation on two AA batteries, with a selectable 10/30/50mW RF power output for overcoming interference in difficult RF environments. The transmission range is up to 330'.

The Ethernet connection on the receiver supports Wireless Systems Manager (WSM) control software for advanced frequency coordination in multi-channel setups. Up to 32 wireless mics can operate simultaneously in the same space.

The EW 500 G4-935 is backward-compatible with all previous evolution systems. You can mix and match G4/G3/G2/G1 receivers or bodypack, handheld, and plug-on transmitters. It is also compatible with EW 100 and EW 300 systems.
