Frequently asked questions
Can I use these products together?
No. The RA4000/EW is an antenna for wireless microphone *receivers*, while the GN30 CS is a wired microphone. They serve entirely different functions in audio systems.
Which is better for live performance?
Only the RA4000/EW supports live performance, as it is an antenna for wireless systems. The GN30 CS is designed exclusively for fixed conferencing and installed sound, not stage or performance use.
Do either of these require external power?
The RA4000/EW is completely passive and requires no power. The GN30 CS operates on 9–52 V phantom power supplied through its XLR connector, which is standard in professional audio installations.
What is the maximum cable length for each?
The RA4000/EW supports up to 10 m of cable between receiver and antenna. The GN30 CS operates on standard balanced XLR runs common in installed systems with a recommended 2,000 Ohm load impedance.
