The Lectrosonics DSQD packs four wideband receivers, with analog XLR and Dante digital outputs, into a compact, half-rack chassis that fits into a cart or even a bag. Part of the D-Squared Series and powered by 4th generation Lectrosonics digital technology, the unit delivers the company's high-standards of reliability, flexibility, and studio-quality audio to professionals in TV, broadcast, and film, as well as houses of worship, theater, and concert venues.





Audio fidelity is outstanding with a flat 20 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response, wide dynamic range, 24-bit/48 kHz digital audio encoding, digital transmission, and ultra-low latency. The DSQD tunes continuously across the extended UHF band from 470 to 608 MHz. It features tracking filters that stay centered on the selected frequency, ensuring excellent RF performance even in difficult environments. Three selectable diversity modes can be employed, depending on the needs of the application. The DSQD is optimized for the DBu bodypack and DHu handheld digital transmitters, but is also backward-compatible with any Digital Hybrid wireless transmitter. Three levels of AES 256-CTR encryption are available when using digital transmitters.





The streamlined menu structure makes the unit easy to use and quick to set up with auto-scan and two-way IR sync. A large, high-resolution backlit LCD and large membrane switches provide an intuitive interface that is highly visible in daylight or dimly lit conditions. The DSQD can be programmed and monitored over its USB or Ethernet connections using the Wireless Designer software for Mac/Windows (free download available separately). The software allows for offline full-system frequency coordination, greatly reducing setup time.





Antenna ports on the rear panel accept input from remote antennas. The antenna "loop-thru" cascade outputs use an internal multi-coupler, enabling you to run multiple receivers from a single pair of antennas without the need for additional components. The DSQD includes half the rack hardware needed to mount two units together, yielding 8 channels in 1RU. If you're rackmounting only a single DSQD, the RMPM2T-1 mounting kit (available separately) is required.The Lectrosonics DBu is a digital bodypack wireless transmitter compatible with D-Squared Series receivers. Powered by 4th generation Lectrosonics digital technology, it includes high-efficiency circuitry specially developed for extended operating time on two AA batteries, and offers RF power selections at 25 and 50mW. The pure digital architecture enables AES 256-CTR encryption for applications requiring high-level security.





The DBu features a standard Lectrosonics TA5M connector with a servo-bias input compatible with a wide range of lavalier and headset mics, dynamic mics, and line-level sources. The unit employs high-quality components in the preamp, a broad range of input-gain adjustment, and DSP-controlled analog limiting to deliver studio-quality audio at a 24-bit/48 kHz resolution.





The switch on the top panel can be configured for use as a mute or power switch, or for talkback communication with the production crew; it can also be disabled to prevent accidents. The DBu's housing is constructed of solid machined aluminum with an ultra-hard, black electroless nickel exterior finish for lasting performance.
