Sennheiser SK 100 G4-B Wireless Bodypack Transmitter
The Sennheiser SK 100 G4-B is a professional, rugged wireless bodypack transmitter operating in the B-Band (626 - 668 MHz) frequency spectrum. As a core element of the industry-standard evolution wireless G4 (ew 100 G4) series, this bodypack is designed for daily use by videographers, field recordists, public speakers, and theater performers.
It serves as the master transmitter to broadcast high-fidelity microphone or line-level audio back to a matching EW G4 receiver (such as the camera-mountable EK 100 G4 or the rackmount EM 100 G4).
Key System Performance and RF Attributes
-
Robust Multi-Channel Tracking: Operating in the professional UHF range, the SK 100 G4-B features up to 1,680 selectable frequencies fully tunable across a wide 42 MHz switching bandwidth. It includes an intermodulation-free bank system pre-configured with up to 12 compatible factory presets for seamless, multi-transmitter configurations.
-
Versatile Mic/Line Input Node: The unit is equipped with a locking 3.5 mm jack input. It accepts both low-voltage electret condenser microphones (like the ME 2-II lavalier or ME 3-II headset) and high-level line inputs (such as external audio mixers or electronic instruments) via switchable matching circuitry.
-
Instant Infrared Synchronization: Frequency allocation is quick and seamless. Once an open, clean channel is identified on the companion receiver via its scanning tool, the channel configuration is mirrored to the SK 100 G4 bodypack wirelessly using a built-in infrared (IR) synchronization node.
-
Enhanced Acoustic Definition: The internal audio path incorporates Sennheiser’s signature HDX Compander system. This technology widebands the signal dynamically to maximize the signal-to-noise ratio (110 dBA typical), virtually eliminating background RF hiss while retaining pristine vocal nuance.

Deployment and Battery Optimization Advice
Lock the Connector Ring Tight: The 3.5 mm input socket is explicitly engineered with an integrated threaded collar. When plugging in your lavalier microphone or instrument cable, always spin the cable's threaded collar lock completely down clockwise until it is flush. Leaving it loose causes friction crackles, dropouts, or accidental disconnects when the talent moves on stage.
Deploy the Local Lock-Out Feature: To prevent a presenter or actor from accidentally powering off the transmitter mid-broadcast or changing the gain structure via the front-panel control buttons, activate the system's Auto-Lock parameter in the internal software menu. When active, the user interface remains safely frozen until a designated button combination is intentionally pressed by a technician.
