Frequently asked questions
Are these products compatible with each other?
The Perception Wireless 45 is a standalone system with its own receiver and does not require the ASU4000. The ASU4000 is designed to power separate antenna components (RA4000, SRA2, AB4000) in larger distributed installations, not the Perception Wireless 45 itself.
