RF Venue CP-ARC

Architectural IEM Antenna

The RF Venue CP-ARC is a circularly polarized antenna designed for permanently installed in-ear monitor systems. Its 470–928 MHz operating range, 120° beam width, and slim wall- or ceiling-mounted enclosure provide dependable RF coverage while allowing the antenna to blend into houses of worship, auditoriums, schools, conference rooms, and other professionally designed spaces.

RF Venue CP-ARC Competitive Differences

• Right-hand circular polarization helps provide consistent IEM bodypack reception regardless of performer movement or receiver orientation.
• 470–928 MHz operating range supports a wide range of UHF and compatible ISM-band IEM applications.
• 120° beam width provides broad directional coverage for installed performance spaces.
• Slim 11 x 11 x 2 in enclosure can be mounted on a wall or ceiling and painted to coordinate with the surrounding interior.
• Architectural design provides a more discreet installed appearance than traditional exposed paddle-style antennas.

RF Venue CP-ARC Description

The RF Venue CP-ARC combines RF Venue's circularly polarized antenna technology with a low-profile architectural enclosure intended for fixed IEM installations. Circular polarization helps maintain a more consistent signal as performers move or rotate their bodypack receivers, reducing the orientation-related signal variations that can occur with fixed-polarization antenna designs.

The antenna operates from 470 to 928 MHz and features a hypercardioid radiation pattern with a 120° beam width. Gain is rated at 3 dBi at 500 MHz, while the 50-ohm design and BNC female connector make it suitable for connection to compatible IEM antenna combiners and coaxial cable systems.

For permanent installations, the matte white enclosure measures only 11 x 11 x 2 inches and can be installed on either a wall or ceiling. The enclosure can also be painted to coordinate with room finishes, making the CP-ARC especially useful where RF performance and visual integration are both important.

The CP-ARC is well suited for houses of worship, schools, auditoriums, conference rooms, performance venues, and multi-zone installations using wireless in-ear monitors. Wall and ceiling mounting kits are included for streamlined installation.
