2.1.1 FreeSpeak II system capacity
The FreeSpeak II Base station supports up to 20 beltpacks.
Connecting an antenna splitter to the transceiver port on the back of the Base
Station allows up to 5 antennas to be connected to the system. The Base station
can connect to two splitters and so support up to 10 antennas. Each antenna
supports up to five beltpacks. However, note that the Base station is limited to
operating with 20 beltpacks out of the theoretical 50. Matrix based systems with
access to full clear radio bandwidth (for example, in the EU) can have up to 50
beltpacks present, (25 in the US). Figure 2-2 illustrates how an FS II system can
be set up to operate in a single studio or in a large-scale permanent broadcast
facility.
Note: Each antenna is designed to handle five beltpacks in the 1.9 GHz range and four
in the 2.4 GHz range, simultaneously in good conditions. However, if interference
