Audio Connectivity & Signal Management
The SONICAIR 100 supports multiple audio interfaces, including XLR, RCA, 6.35 mm and 3.5 mm AUX, helping integrate compatible professional and consumer audio equipment without requiring separate converters in many setups.
Its Balanced/Unbalanced XLR switch helps accommodate different signal configurations, while the receiver's Ground Lift/Earth switch can help reduce unwanted hum caused by ground loops in suitable installations. Correct signal levels, connections and grounding practices should always be observed.
Long-Range Transmission & Multi-Receiver Support
The SONICAIR 100 is specified for transmission up to 800 m / 2,625 ft in suitable open-area, line-of-sight conditions. Actual range can vary due to walls, metal structures, RF interference, antenna placement and the installation environment.
The system supports a basic 1 transmitter to 1 receiver configuration as well as a specified 1 transmitter to multiple receivers configuration. Up to 200 receivers and up to 10 complete TX/RX systems by default are listed in the supplied specifications; confirm the final hardware's compatibility and frequency coordination requirements before planning large installations.
Compatible Audio Equipment
The SONICAIR 100 is designed to work with compatible:
-
Professional, digital and analog audio mixers
-
Audio processors and DSP systems
-
Active PA speakers and powered monitors
-
Power amplifiers
-
Stage and studio monitoring equipment
-
Keyboards and compatible musical instruments
-
Computers and media players with suitable audio connections
-
Commercial and distributed audio systems
Important: The SONICAIR 100 transmits audio signals; it is not a power amplifier. An active speaker can connect to a compatible receiver output. A passive speaker requires a suitable power amplifier between the receiver and speaker.
