RF Venue DFIN-IPX The Diversity Fin® IPX Antenna w/ IP44 Rating

The RF Venue Diversity Fin IPX is a rugged, weather-resistant, multi-purpose antenna designed for wireless microphone systems and other UHF receivers utilizing diversity reception. It combines a directional log-periodic dipole array (LPDA) and a bidirectional dipole antenna into a single, IP44-rated enclosure. This patented cross-polarized design captures both vertically and horizontally polarized RF signals, effectively reducing multi-path interference and signal dropouts. Built for touring professionals, outdoor events, and permanent outdoor installations, the IPX replaces the need for two traditional "shark fin" paddle antennas, streamlining setup while delivering superior and reliable signal integrity in challenging environments. Features Patented Cross-Polarized Design Integrates both an LPDA and a dipole element in one housing to capture signals across multiple orientations, mitigating multi-path interference. All-Weather Reliability IP44-rated construction with weather-resistant seals and downward-facing BNC connectors protects the unit against rain, dust, and debris. Streamlined Deployment Achieves true diversity reception from a single stand and mounting point, saving space, setup time, and cable clutter compared to traditional dual-paddle setups. Rugged Touring Enclosure Designed specifically to handle the physical demands of transport, live events, rental inventories, and extreme outdoor environments. High Compatibility Operates across the wide 470–928 MHz UHF band, making it compatible with nearly all modern wireless microphone systems from any brand. Versatile Mounting Integrated mounting block supports 1/4"-20, 3/8"-16, and 5/8"-27 threads (includes an EU microphone stand adapter) for flexible deployment on standard mic stands or brackets.
