SIRUS Quad H 823 MKII Professional Dynamic UHF Handheld Transmitter
Product Information
The Quad H 823 MKII and Quad H 470 are wireless audio transmission devices designed for transmitting audio signals from microphones or instruments to amplifiers or active speakers. These devices operate on specific frequency bands and have a modulation type of frequency modulation (FM). They have a maximum transmission power of 30 mW (switchable) and a frequency range of 823 MHz to 832 MHz and 863 MHz to 865 MHz (for Quad H 832 MKII) or 470 MHz to 526 MHz (for Quad H 470).
The devices have a total harmonic distortion (THD) of less than 0.5% at 1 kHz and a signal-to-noise ratio of over 102 dB (A). They are powered by two round cell batteries (AA, LR6, 1.5 V) or corresponding rechargeable batteries, providing an operating time of either 8 or 15 hours depending on the transmission power. The devices weigh 350 g and have a temperature range suitable for normal usage.

time period.
Notes on wireless transmission
This device utilizes frequencies that are not harmonized within the European
Union (EU) and therefore may only be used in certain EU member states. In all
Europe-an countries, the frequencies used for the transmission of audio
signals are strictly regulated. Before you start, make sure that the
frequencies are legitimate in the respective country and check whether the
operation must be registered with the responsible authority.
