How To Use A PASSIVE ANTENNA COMBINER/SPLITTER - Tutorial

In this video, I'm updating my in ear monitor rack and showing you how to use a passive antenna combiner (or splitter). In this tutorial, I'll show you the benefits of using a passive antenna combiner and why you might want to use one.

Side note - love the swissonic router. We added one to our rack not long ago and they are great!

[TheDoodostudio]

Thanks very much, Scott ! Super useful and crystal clear!

[zackcarpenter]

Been using the rf venue passive split with my 3 galaxy audio 950 iem systems to combine 2 units that are in the 400 frequency range. so far its worked well in venues with up to 500 person crowds

[vanguardianortena]

Love it thanks so much greetings from Mexico I will use this for my in ear monitor and a jts microphone thank you

[johnmcchavs]

Once again, very useful reviews and tutorials. You're the man, Scott! I'm pretty sure I'll be able to make a reasonably priced solution for my band (in France) thanks to your very cool videos. So, once again, thank you very much for that, sir. Cheers from France!

Perfect! Looking at getting a combiner soon so it was great to see the passive option and understand that, I'll have to go with Active though. Just not sure if I can use Sure psm 300s with the G4 sennheiser iem and the active sennheiser combiner that supplies power. But I know that's the way to go!

Cheers!

[DanLucas]

thanks for sharing it!
May I use 1:40 cenario?
I intend to use it with two sennheiser EW-D microphone systems (two antennas, two splitters, two EW-D)

I’ve got the AC41 with 4 systems, but am going to add one more IEM system. Do you think I could use this for the 5th and combine the output of the AC41 and the 5th system with the overall output going to the directional paddle?

This is so timely so thanks for this. I just had an outdoor show last Thurs where our rack was off stage and not line of sight, and my in ears kept dropping out. Luckily one of the sound guys had the Sennheiser omnidirectional one which saved me. Question, based on the Sennheiser vid I bought the clip, BNC cables, and bought the Phenyx PAS-82 antennas (Reg price $130 for a pair) without the actual PAS-225X system, since the PAS-82 specs say they work within the 400-950 MHz range. In theory, this same application should work, correct?

Hi Scott.
I know that this is not exactly the subject of this video, but I have a question that's related so I thought I could ask for help here.
I've had the opportunity to get an sennheiser antenna splitter Asa 1 for free! I intend to use it for my 3 dual-channel in-ear monitor system. Reducing my 6 antennas to 2. Is it appropriate? If it is, should I connect the antennas to the RF ant in or to the RF ant out?
Sorry to bother, and thanks.

[chucksaeger]

How are your two separate systems installed in one space in your rack? Are they just connected by the rack side mounts and the center just pushed together?
Thanks for all you do!

[emersontanakamotion]

Great video! those antennas you have up at the top of the rack is just for the router right? it has nothing to do with the in-ears correct?...do you have a separate rack for the wireless mics? how do you connect between them? just through the splitter? why don't you have just 1 rack with in-ears and wireless mics? because it will have too many antennas? thanks!

[loganbrown]

Hey Scott. So I know you said not to combine more than 2 antenna, but in my idea I wouldn’t be combining more than two types. I would need to combine 2 antenna from 2 in ear transmitters, as you do in this video, but I would also need to combine two antenna on a wireless microphone receiver. Each combination would go to a different directional antenna and since one is a transmitting signal and the other is a receiving signal, I don’t believe i’d have any issues. LMK your thoughts! Thanks in advance.

[chucksaeger]

Would a dual antenna device ( Phenyx Pro ptg 11) be better with the dual antennas mounted on the front of a rack or combined into one? Would you have to use the splitter/combiner like you have or would a tee connector suffice?
Thanks so much!

[michaelpanelas]

Are the IEM units secured in the middle in any way? Do they move around at all or is that safe enough?

[bitch]

Hi Scott, does the frequency of the transmitters have to be the same frequency?

[FOHGeek]

Will analog TV antenna splitters work for wireless mikes?

[acetipton]

If we have 5 total band members, and the drummer is going to get his ears directly out from the digital mixer, and the other 4 of us need IEM systems, would it be recommended to use two antennas and 2 separate passive splitters so that we could combine the signal for the two IEMs for the stage left performers into one antenna and the two IEMs for the stage right performers into a separate antenna simultaneously?

[JSTPband]

What specific BNC cable do you recommend for the PTM-10?

[paulwilliamson]

Hey do you have anything on a multiple say 10 Wireless headset body pack and receiver splitter and antenna set up?
