The Deity Microphones SF1 is a directional shark fin antenna with a wide frequency range and robust design make it versatile for different wireless systems, including Deity's THEOS ecosystem and other brands. Its weather-sealed housing ensures reliability in various conditions, and the metal mount brackets provide secure installation.
Fewer Surprises
The SF1 is built to win back signal quality in messy RF. Its directional panel and ~60° optimal pickup angle let you point coverage at the talent and ignore the noise floor that lives off-axis-handy on festival stages, crowded corporate ballrooms, and RF-dense backlots. Keep line-of-sight, mount high, and space diversity antennas at least a wavelength; do a quick "walk-around" and you'll know exactly where your wireless pickup zones are before the show rolls.
More than Basic Gain
Long cable run to the cart? Dial in just enough active gain - SF1 gives you -9dB to +21dB in 1dB steps with a bright readout, so you can match the line loss you've measured instead of guessing. If the front end starts to saturate, the red overload indicator tells you instantly; back the gain down and preserve headroom rather than amplifying the entire RF neighborhood. And if there's no DC bias available, SF1 still pulls its weight as a passive panel with 6dBi gain.
More Versatile
From theater to house of worship to TV sets, the SF1 covers 470MHz - 960MHz, so your kit doesn't need to change when the venue does. Standard 50Ω BNC connectivity drops right into pro distros and low-loss coax; an OIP3 of 39dBm helps keep dynamic range intact in crowded spectrum. Power is frictionless-just feed 12V - 16.8V DC bias from your receiver or distro, and you're live.
Built for All Environments
Rain on the sideline, dust on location, or a week of load-ins - SF1's IP54 rating and 14°F - 131°F (-10°C - 55°C) operating range make it a safe pick for real-world crews. The slotted design also allows wind to pass through it, preventing it from turning into a sail.
Quick, Solid Mounting
The SF1 mount features a 3/8" Locator Pin design that prevents twist and turns when trying to mount it accurately. The all-metal CNC mounting hinge accepts both 3/8" and 5/8" via an adapter.
