Sennheiser SKM 6000 BK COM Digital Handheld Wireless Transmitter - A1-A4: 470 to 558 MHz

Sennheiser SKM 6000 BK COM Digital Handheld Wireless Transmitter

The Sennheiser SKM 6000 BK COM digital handheld wireless transmitter is a capsule-ready Digital 6000 transmitter offered here in A1-A4 COM and A5-A8 COM frequency variants. Both versions add a programmable command button, deliver intermodulation-free UHF operation, and support Sennheiser and Neumann-compatible microphone heads for professional live, broadcast, theater, and installed applications.

The SKM 6000 BK A1-A4 COM covers 470.2 to 558 MHz, while the SKM 6000 BK A5-A8 COM covers 550 to 638 MHz. Each provides an 88 MHz switching bandwidth with 25 kHz tuning steps, giving RF coordinators substantial flexibility when deploying multichannel wireless microphone systems. Long Range and Link Density operating modes support applications ranging from premium audio transmission to high channel-count productions.

Sennheiser's SeDAC codec handles Long Range operation, while SePAC supports Link Density mode with up to five links per 1 MHz of spectrum. AES 256 and Digital 9000 encryption protect wireless transmission, and the magnesium housing balances low weight with professional durability. A BA 60 rechargeable battery provides up to 5.5 hours of operation, with the B 60 battery set available as an alternative.
