A butterfly antenna is a type of antenna that is used in wireless microphone systems on film sets and stage applications. The Deity Butterfly bow-tie antenna is designed to have a relatively wide bandwidth. This means it can operate effectively over a range of frequencies, which can be advantageous in wireless microphone systems. Film sets often use different frequency bands for wireless microphones to avoid interference, and a broadband antenna like ours that can cover all these bands without needing frequent adjustments.

Ultra-Wideband Coverage

With a frequency range spanning from 470MHz to 1GHz, the BF1 ensures seamless transmission across a wide spectrum, allowing you to capture every nuance with clarity and precision. Boasting an average gain of +2.2dBi, the BF1 enhances signal reception, giving you a distinct advantage in capturing pristine audio in challenging environments.

Featherlight Construction

Weighing in as one of the lightest antennas in its class, the BF1 ensures effortless portability without compromising on durability or performance. Rated IP65, the BF1 is built to withstand the rigors of professional filmmaking, offering resistance against dust and water ingress, so you can focus on capturing the perfect shot without worrying about equipment failure.

Precision Mounting
