Overview

Four wireless channels on one network cable: the Sennheiser SL MCR 4 DW-5 is a four-channel receiver for the SpeechLine Digital Wireless system. It sends audio over Dante and a single Ethernet cable powered by PoE, mixes all channels with an integrated automixer, and uses AES 256 encryption. It suits boardrooms, universities and schools in Qatar that want wireless microphones connected directly to the network.

A four-channel receiver for networked audio rooms

The SL MCR 4 DW-5 is the four-channel member of Sennheiser's SpeechLine DW multi-channel receiver range. It takes the signals from four wireless transmitters and delivers the audio as a digital Dante stream, as a summed analogue output, or both. Because one Ethernet connection carries the audio and provides power, a room that once depended on bundles of analogue cable can be wired with a single network run.

The specifications that matter for planning

Network audio: two RJ-45 Dante sockets with primary and secondary Dante support, plus PoE for power over the same cable.
Mixing: an integrated automixer produces one sum signal, and the analogue mix output lets older systems use it without a digital upgrade.
Wireless management: the receiver communicates both ways with paired transmitters, so their settings can be adjusted in the Sennheiser Control Cockpit. Automatic frequency management removes manual frequency selection.
Security: AES 256 encryption, and a pairing function for connecting transmitters.
Performance: 23 ms latency, typical THD of 0.1 %, dynamic range above 120 dB(A), and a frequency response of 20 to 20,000 Hz.

Where it fits in Qatar

In a ministry boardroom in Msheireb, four participants can each use a wireless transmitter during a briefing, and the audio can feed the room's audio system and the building network without a separate analogue run for every seat. The status LEDs, one per link, let the room operator check each connection before the meeting starts.

In a lecture theatre in Education City, a lecturer, a guest speaker and two panel members can share the same receiver, while the analogue mix supports a legacy recording feed. A private school in Al Wakrah fitting out a multi-purpose hall can use the four channels for morning assemblies and bilingual events in Arabic and English, without running analogue cable to every stage position.

What to plan before installation

The receiver measures 180 x 180 x 45 mm including its wall mounting plate and weighs 560 g. It can sit on a wall, a ceiling or a mic stand, and the box includes the mounting plate, a drilling template and a 3-pin Phoenix connector. Plan the Ethernet and Dante cable route, and confirm that the network switch provides PoE for the receiver, which draws less than 15 W.

The operating range is -10°C to +45°C with humidity up to 95 %. Summer temperatures in Qatar can exceed 45°C, so install the receiver in an air-conditioned room or confirm the conditions with the SmartRooms Qatar team before mounting it anywhere else. A free site survey lets us check the wall or ceiling construction before any drilling starts.

Questions about SL MCR 4 DW-5

Who should buy the SL MCR 4 DW-5 rather than a two-channel receiver?

The SL MCR 4 DW-5 suits rooms where four wireless transmitters must be active at once, such as a government boardroom in Msheireb with four presenters or panel members, or a hall where several speakers share the stage. If a room only ever needs two wireless channels, the two-channel SL MCR 2 DW-5 is the closer match. Ask SmartRooms Qatar to confirm the channel count for your room before ordering.

What frequency range does this model use, and how does it compare with the SL MCR 2 DW-5?

The manufacturer lists the SL MCR 4 DW-5 frequency range as 1893.000 - 1906.000, the same band listed for the two-channel SL MCR 2 DW-5. The difference between the two models is channel count, not band. Before ordering, confirm that your transmitters and existing SpeechLine setup match this band, and ask SmartRooms Qatar to check compatibility with your installation.

Can the receiver feed a Dante audio network?

Yes. The unit has two RJ-45 Dante sockets and supports primary and secondary Dante, so the mixed audio can travel over your Dante network as a digital signal. This lets a room with an existing DSP add wireless channels without replacing the DSP. Review the Dante configuration with your IT team before installation so the audio routes correctly through your network switches.

Is power delivered through the network cable?

The receiver supports PoE, and the manufacturer describes operation over a single network cable, so data and power can share one Ethernet run. The listed power consumption is under 15 W. Confirm with your network supplier that the switch port provides enough PoE power for the receiver, because the box does not include a separate power adapter.

Can it be controlled from a touch panel or room control system?

Yes. The manufacturer states that the receiver can be controlled and monitored remotely through a media control system, and names AMX, Crestron and Q-SYS Control as examples. Settings for paired transmitters are made in the Sennheiser Control Cockpit, which communicates with the receiver in both directions. Ask your integrator to confirm the driver for your control platform before the project starts.

What audio performance figures are listed?

The listed figures are 23 ms latency, typical total harmonic distortion of 0.1 %, dynamic range above 120 dB(A), and an audio frequency response of 20 to 20,000 Hz. Automatic gain control helps keep levels steady when speakers move between microphones. Latency matters most in live events and presentations with video, so test the full chain with your transmitters before the room goes live.

How large is the unit, and where can it be mounted?

The unit measures 180 x 180 x 45 mm including the wall mounting plate and weighs 560 g. It can be mounted on a wall, a ceiling or a mic stand, and the box includes a wall mounting plate and drilling template. In a West Bay office with a suspended ceiling, check the void above the ceiling and the cable route before fixing. SmartRooms Qatar offers a free site survey to plan this.

Will it cope with Qatar's summer heat?

The operating temperature range is -10°C to +45°C (14°F to 113°F), with relative humidity up to 95 %. Summer temperatures in Qatar can exceed 45°C, so the receiver should sit in an air-conditioned room rather than an unventilated cabinet, loft or outdoor space. If you are considering a location outside the cooled area, confirm the conditions with the SmartRooms Qatar team first.

What is included in the box?

The box contains one SL MCR DW multichannel receiver, one wall mounting plate, one drilling template, one 3-pin Phoenix connector with 3.81 mm pitch, and a quick guide. The manufacturer also lists an instruction manual and a third-party API for Sennheiser products as online resources. No battery is included. Check the contents on arrival against your quotation.

How could a university in Education City use four channels?

A lecture theatre or seminar room in Education City might use four transmitters: one for the lecturer, one for a guest speaker, and two for members of a workshop panel. A single Ethernet cable to the receiver simplifies wiring compared with separate analogue audio cables, especially in a building with many rooms. The analogue mix output can feed an older recording setup while Dante carries the main digital feed.

Can a school in Al Wakrah buy several units on a purchase order?

Yes. SmartRooms Qatar accepts purchase orders (LPOs) and government tenders, including Monaqasat, and accepts payment by bank transfer, cheque or purchase order. A school fitting out several halls in Al Wakrah can request one quotation covering every receiver, cable and mounting item. Quotations are usually provided within one working day, and delivery covers all eight municipalities of Qatar.

What warranty applies to this receiver?

The manufacturer data lists a warranty of 2 years for the SL MCR 4 DW-5, and products are covered by the manufacturer's warranty. SmartRooms Qatar supplies, delivers and can install the unit. Ask for the warranty terms in writing with your quotation, and keep the purchase order and unit details with your asset records.
