Sennheiser Spectera Base Station

The Spectera Base Station is a compact 1RU hub engineered for professional wireless audio systems, delivering up to 64 channels of I/O (32 in/32 out) across dual wideband RF carriers. Also, it features redundant Dante connectivity with optional redundant MADI, ensuring uninterrupted signal flow.

The base station allows for the addition of modular antennas for expanded coverage, spectrum capacity, or redundancy.

The base station supports conversion rates of 48 kHz and 96 kHz across all audio interfaces and wordclock I/O, making it ideal for complex live sound and broadcast environments.
