Sennheiser DECT World 2024

Sennheiser, a company with expertise in advanced audio technology that makes collaboration and learning easier, is proud to have its Head of Spectrum Policy and Standards, Dr.-Ing. Andreas Wilzeck, and Spectrum Policy and Standards Manager, Vaughan John, present this week at DECT World 2024 in Munich, Germany.

Dr.-Ing. Wilzeck will present on the Media and Event production via Resilient Communication on IoT Infrastructure (MERCI) project today and audio for video and business communication solutions during his presentation tomorrow. During “A Glimpse into the Franco-German MERCI Project,” Dr.-Ing. Wilzeck will provide insights into DECT standards, markets and advantages, while giving an overview of MERCI. Friday’s presentation will cover Sennheiser’s AVX and SpeechLine Digital Wireless (SL DW) solutions, exploring the importance of DECT-based audio systems for videographers and creators as well as lectures and presentation.

In addition to Dr.-Ing. Wilzeck’s presentation, Vaughan John presents today on the 3.8-4.2 GHz opportunity for DECT NR+. The presentation will review the expansion of radio spectrum choices for DECT NR+. The MERCI project aims to develop innovative solutions for private 5G networks based on or complemented by DECT NR+, a new 5G technology tailored to the needs of various industries.

Sennheiser’s AVX is the most relaxed way to record video sound wirelessly and has become a first choice for videographers. Its self-configuring digital transmission eliminates time-consuming radio frequency set-up. Sennheiser’s SL DW is a digital wireless microphone system for speech and lectures, designed and optimized for university and corporate use.
