RF Venue has brought its patented cross‑linear antenna technology outdoors with the new Diversity Fin® IPX. Built into a hardened, IP44‑rated enclosure, the Diversity Fin IPX is designed to deliver dependable wireless performance for touring, festivals, stadiums and permanent outdoor installations.

Walpole, MA, USA, April 7, 2026 — RF Venue, a leading global manufacturer of wireless audio essentials, has announced the availability of the Diversity Fin IPX antenna. As the latest evolution of RF Venue’s industry‑standard flagship antenna, the Diversity Fin IPX delivers the proven performance users expect, wrapped in a ruggedised design suitable for touring and fixed outdoor use.

Created for live sound professionals and system integrators working in demanding environments, the Diversity Fin IPX provides consistent, reliable wireless microphone reception in conditions that typically challenge RF performance — from dusty festival stages to rain‑exposed outdoor venues.

“For years, the Diversity Fin has been the trusted solution for eliminating wireless microphone dropouts,” said Chris Regan, Chief Innovation Officer at RF Venue. “With the IPX version, we’ve taken that same performance and made it ready for outdoor use.”

The Diversity Fin IPX features a hardened enclosure with an IP44 rating, incorporating weather‑resistant seals and downward‑facing BNC connectors to help protect against rain and dust ingress in real‑world conditions.

The Diversity Fin IPX retains RF Venue’s patented cross‑linear polarization design that made the original Diversity Fin an industry standard. By combining a log‑periodic dipole array (LPDA) and a dipole antenna in a single housing, the antenna captures both vertical and horizontal signal components, reducing multipath interference and helping prevent dropouts.

“By using a cross‑linear polarization design,” Regan explained, “the IPX performs reliably on tour, capturing signals regardless of how the performer holds the transmitter or what kind of multipath environment you’re working in.”

With two antennas integrated into one enclosure, the Diversity Fin IPX requires only a single mounting point and a single location to achieve true diversity reception. This simplifies stage plots and rack layouts, while offering a cost‑effective alternative to deploying two separate high‑quality paddle antennas.

AVAILABILITY

The Diversity Fin IPX will be available from 30 April 2026 in Matte Black or Matte White finishes. Each unit ships with the LPDA antenna body, a pair of horizontal dipole antenna elements (plus two spare elements), and a threaded EU adapter for the integrated microphone stand mount. The antenna is also available in bundled multichannel upgrade packs that include the required cabling and RF distribution hardware.

IDEAL APPLICATIONS

  • Touring & Rental
  • Outdoor Festivals
  • Sports Facilities
  • Stadium Press Boxes
  • Permanent Outdoor Worship Spaces
  • Theatres & Performing Arts Centres

For indoor spaces where visual appearance is a priority, RF Venue continues to recommend the aesthetically neutral Diversity Architectural antenna. For outdoor in‑ear monitor transmission, the compact and rugged circularly polarised CP Stage antenna remains the preferred solution.
