What you get
The rack hardware and the essentials that travel with it—configured for your system.
Inside the rack
The reference build
2× Sennheiser EW-DX EM 2
Two non-Dante dual-channel receivers provide four microphone channels with balanced analog outputs. The RF link is digital.
CLR power distribution
Rack-mounted power distribution and internal power wiring, specified for the installed equipment.
Also included: the CLR enclosure, fitted backplate, mounting hardware and internal power/signal patching for the agreed reference build. Product pictures identify the equipment family; final models and variants follow your quotation.
In the kit
Ready to connect
Your configuration sets the packing list — The rack hardware is listed here. Microphone transmitters, capsules, bodypack receivers, earpieces, external antennas and batteries are supplied only in the quantities and regional variants agreed with your configuration. “Analog” describes the audio handoff, not the RF transmission. Receiver antenna distribution is selected with the build; no unconfirmed RF distribution model is included by implication. Travel bags and cases are optional transport choices, not included by default.
Technical specifications
Four clear channels
Direct to your console
Reference configuration: two Sennheiser EW-DX EM 2 dual-channel receivers in a 4U CLR rack, providing four balanced analog microphone outputs. Transmitters, frequency variants and the final patch are configured for your show.
- Rack format
- 4U CLR rack
- Receivers and channels
- 2 × Sennheiser EW-DX EM 2 · 2 channels each · 4 simultaneous microphone channels
- Balanced audio
- 4 XLR-3M receiver outputs in total · up to +18 dBu per output
- Alternative receiver outputs
- One unbalanced 6.3 mm output per channel, up to +12 dBu; use either XLR or jack for each channel

Compatibility & touring regions
The right wireless
For every destination
Match the EW-DX EM 2 receivers with compatible Evolution Wireless Digital handhelds or bodypacks in the correct frequency-range variant. An unrelated analog wireless transmitter does not become compatible simply because it tunes to the same frequency. Capsule mounts and bodypack microphone connectors must also match the selected transmitters.
Common EW-DX tuning variants include Q1-9 (470.2–550 MHz), R1-9 (520–607.8 MHz) and S1-10 (606.2–693.8 MHz). Other variants cover different regional windows. These are hardware tuning ranges, not a promise that every frequency is legal in every destination.
Choose receiving antennas and distribution for the same operating band, with cable loss and receiver requirements accounted for. Antenna bandwidth cannot extend a receiver’s tuning range.
Check current frequency permissions, licensing and radiated-power limits for every destination with the relevant local authority or RF coordinator. A venue scan and coordinated channel plan are still needed; a permitted band is not automatically clear of interference. No single variant is promised to cover every country.

Rack to road
4U reference format. Plan a protective Peli case around the complete build.
01 / Peli case
Protection for the road
A fitted Peli case adds rigid protection, with an insert and accessory space planned for your complete rack.
Optional transport, configured to order. These drawings illustrate travel formats, not this rack’s exact insert or included accessories. Final packed dimensions and weight are confirmed with your build. Airline cabin acceptance depends on the carrier’s current rules.
The rear patch
How it connects
- Compatible microphone transmitters send four channels over digital RF to the two EW-DX receivers.
- Each microphone channel leaves the rack on its own rear XLR connection.
- Your console or external interface receives the four analog signals. No Dante endpoint is required for this audio handoff.
- Audio
- MIC 1–4: four balanced analog XLR microphone-channel outputs to your console or interface.
- Wireless
- The two EW-DX receivers use digital RF reception. “Analog” refers only to the output connection.
- RF & power
- One ANT socket on the illustrated rear · AC IN. Receiving antenna distribution is specified for the complete system.
The drawing shows the reference connector layout, not every connection on each internal device. Final routing, cable types and regional equipment variants are confirmed for your build.
