Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. WHAT RECEIVER DO I NEED FOR THIS?

A: Ideally you will get the EK500 receiver (for portable/camera work) or the EM500 for rack mount). It is also compatible with the 100 and 300 EW Evolution receivers, but in that case, not all frequencies of the transmitter will be available on the receiver. If you want it for camera work, this transmitter is also sold as a kit with a receiver, or as a kit with a receiver, body pack transmitter, MKE2 lav. Item# SEEW500BG4G1 and Item# SEEW500FILM1

Q: 2. will this work with a plain Shure SM-58?

A: Yes it will with the Shure SM-58 as well as any other dynamic microphone on the market that sports an XLR connector.

Q: 3. Will the SKP 500 G4 transmitter provide phantom power to the XLR mic?

A: Yes, the Sennheiser SKP 500 G4 Wireless Plug-On Transmitter (B&H # SESKP500G4AW or B&H # SESKP500G4G1) will supply phantom power to a condenser mic with XLR output. Since you posted your question on the item page for the Sennheiser SKP 100 G4 Plug-On Transmitter for Dynamic Microphones (B&H # SESKP100G4A), please be aware that the SKP 100 does not supply any voltage so it cannot be used for condenser mics and can only be used with dynamic microphones (which do not require any voltage) or condenser microphones that use a battery for power.

Q: 4. can I get one with frequency range band B or range D?

A: No, the B (626 - 668 MHz) and D (780 - 822 MHz) frequency bands are not available for use in the United States and components for these ranges are not sold by US dealers.

Q: 5. So I have a Senn EW 110 G4 A1 band. Since it’s freq is 470-516. I’m assuming this is compatible?

A: Yes, this plug-on transmitter is compatible with Sennheiser Evolution receivers in the A1 ( 470 to 516MHz ) frequency range.

Q: 6. Will the model work with the Sennheiser G3 wireless receivers?

A: Yes it will. The G4 series are completely backwards compatible.

Q: 7. Hi, I would like to wirelessly place a boom with With 48V Phantom Power to a 100 G3. The 100 G3 does not support 48V Phantom Power. There would be no problem receiving the signal with the boom from the SKP 500 G4 Pro to the 100 G3. in the camera?

A: Although hard to confirm without actually testing, it can be theorized that the Sennheiser SKP 500 G4 Pro Wireless Plug-On Transmitter AW+: (470 to 558 MHz) will properly send signal to a Sennheiser EK 100 G3 Receiver, assuming both units are set to the same frequency.

Q: 8. Sennheiser EW 100-ENG G2 series and I need to replace the transmitter. Would this G4 version work with the G2 series?

A: Yes they are backwards compatible. NOTE: In order for it to work they should be in the same frequency range, or at least a good portion of the frequencies should be within range of your existing system.

Q: 9. Will this work with the EW100-S3 model?

A: The SKP-100 G4 transmitter will work with EW100 G3 receivers as long as the frequency bands match.

Q: 10. Will this work with the EW 100 G3 receiver?

A: The G4 series is backwards compatible with the G3 series, so you can program this transmitter to work with your EW 100 G3 receiver. The 500 G4 series divides the available UHF range for wireless microphones into two large 88 MHz blocks. Just be sure to get the appropriate range that includes the frequencies for your G3 receiver.
