The system is available in two formats, allowing the user to take advantage of the two price points on offer. The entry level version is the S5.3 which operates up to 12 simultaneous channels in nine banks within an 11MHz window (854-865MHz). Computer monitoring software comes as standard so users benefit from realtime system status. The S5.3 is already being recognised as a versatile performer and is proving particularly popular with semi-pro bands and theatre productions, says Trantec.
The S5.5 system caters for larger projects and can simultaneously operate up to 24 channels in 10 banks within its 35MHz window (830-865MHz). Fully interactive PC monitoring via a USB port controls all aspects including a frequency download function, RF and AF monitoring, and transmitter battery status.
Both systems come with fully assembled cases of 4, 8 or 12 receivers and transmitters complete with antennae, cables, and accessories.
Trantec's sales executive, Mark Parkhouse says, "Our aim with the S5 Racked 'n' Ready range is not only to bring multi-channel professional wireless within everybody's reach, but also to provide everything you need in one convenient package that suits any size of venue. It's a system that really is ready when you are. Another important feature is that they will operate for up to 10 hours on a single AA battery - making the running costs of the S5 one of the cheapest on the market."
