Audio-Technica CX-22 Architecturally Discreet Ceiling Antenna

Architecturally Discreet Ceiling Antenna for Optimal Wireless Microphone Performance
The Audio-Technica CX-22 Architecturally Discreet Ceiling Antenna is an ideal solution for environments where aesthetic considerations require a low-profile antenna without sacrificing wireless microphone performance. Designed for wideband UHF operation in the 470-698 MHz range, the CX-22 is perfect for classrooms, training facilities, houses of worship, boardrooms, and lecture halls. With its compact form factor and versatile functionality, it ensures reliable wireless coverage without the intrusive look of traditional directional antennas. The CX-22 allows you to enjoy crystal-clear audio in professional settings while seamlessly blending into any ceiling design.

Wideband UHF Coverage for Consistent Wireless Audio
Operating within the 470-698 MHz frequency range, the CX-22 offers excellent coverage for wireless microphone systems, ensuring strong and stable signal transmission across a broad spectrum. This makes the antenna highly versatile, capable of supporting various wireless systems in different environments. Whether you’re in a large auditorium or a small conference room, the CX-22 maintains signal clarity and prevents dropouts, making it an essential tool for audio professionals. The broad bandwidth of 228 MHz further enhances its compatibility with multiple wireless systems, providing consistent, reliable performance in a range of settings.

Linear Polarization for Reliable Signal Transmission
The CX-22 antenna features linear polarization with a hemispherical coverage pattern, designed to deliver uniform signal distribution across the coverage area. This feature ensures that the antenna delivers optimal performance in a wide range of directions, making it an excellent choice for environments with varying receiver positions. The linear polarization helps to reduce interference and signal loss, providing up to 6 dB of antenna gain to maintain high-quality sound transmission. This design makes the CX-22 a dependable choice for distributed antenna systems (DAS) in large facilities, where maintaining consistent signal strength is crucial.

Low-Profile Design for Easy Installation and Aesthetic Flexibility
The CX-22’s low-profile design (355 mm x 355 mm or 14" x 14") makes it an ideal solution for ceiling installation in spaces where a traditional antenna would disrupt the room’s aesthetic. The antenna is available in a matte white finish, and it can easily be painted to match any interior décor, offering flexibility for any environment. However, it’s important to avoid paints that contain carbon black, lead, or metallic powder, as these may affect performance. With its simple and unobtrusive design, the CX-22 blends seamlessly into the ceiling, ensuring that it delivers optimal performance without compromising the room’s look.

Durability and Reliable Performance for Various Environments
Built to last, the CX-22 antenna is designed to operate within a temperature range of -10°C to +40°C (14°F to +104°F), making it suitable for a wide range of environments. Its robust construction ensures it can withstand the demands of different settings, from educational institutions to professional boardrooms. The antenna is lightweight (weighing just 0.9 kg or 2 lbs), making it easy to install without requiring significant effort. Additionally, the antenna includes a BNC output connector on the rear plate, ensuring easy and secure connection to your wireless system.
