    THE PROBLEM

    Wireless antennas may experience physical damage before any loss of functionality is noticeable.

    • It fails in the rain
    • On the truck
    • During load-in
    • Under stage heat
    • Or when something unexpected hits it

    The Diversity Fin® IPX was engineered specifically for those moments. 

     

    THE SOLUTION

    The Diversity Fin IPX Antenna combines a log-periodic dipole array (LPDA) and a dipole antenna inside a single ruggedized, IP44-rated enclosure.

    That means:

    • Both vertical and horizontal RF energy are captured
    • Eliminate signal dropouts and greatly reduces multi-path interference
    • Built for permanent outdoor installations

    Bring greater confidence to all outdoor wireless mic installations.

    What Audio Professionals Are Saying

    We recently replaced the two LPDA paddles we normally deploy with our Shure system and integrated the DFIN-IPX into our workflow at Levi’s Stadium. The transition was seamless for our tech team, and the setup felt immediately familiar and intuitive.

    Alan Chang, Coral Canopy

    We used the antenna for wireless mics during a church service ‘in the round’ for 5,000 people at SNHU Arena in Manchester. Signal strength and response were excellent in every configuration. I was especially impressed with the reception both in front of and behind the fin. It’s a great unit that performs well both passively and powered. Overall, very impressive performance.

    Adam Godbout, MFI Pro

    Built to Take the Hit. Engineered to Keep the Signal.
