SL TS 153-S DW-5 B

What the SL TS 153-S DW-5 B is built to do

The SL TS 153-S DW-5 B is a wireless tablestand microphone from Sennheiser's SpeechLine Digital Wireless range, and it is dedicated to speech. It suits a presenter or panellist who needs to stand, walk across a stage or pass the microphone along a table without a cable tying them to one seat. Because the design targets spoken content, it fits briefings, panel sessions and lectures far better than music.

Charging, battery and control

The unit can be charged wirelessly using the Qi standard or through USB. The included BA 40 rechargeable battery has a 2.2 Ah capacity and a 3.6 V rating, and Sennheiser gives a typical operating time of 10 hours. Dedicated battery status LEDs show the charge level, which helps a facilities team confirm readiness before a session starts. The microphone can also be monitored and controlled with the Sennheiser Control Cockpit. The CHG 2W wireless charging base for two mobile devices is available separately and is not part of the package.

Connection, radio and audio performance

This model is wireless. The source data lists an EU frequency range of 1,880 to 1,900 MHz with RF sensitivity below -90 dBm. An XLR-5 socket is provided for a solid connection to the MEG 14-40-L-II B gooseneck microphone, which is useful when a lectern needs a fixed microphone position. Latency is 19 ms. Audio frequency response runs from 75 to 20,000 Hz, with a signal-to-noise ratio above 90 dB(A), a dynamic range above 120 dB(A), 24 bit/48 kHz sampling and total harmonic distortion typically at 0.1 %. Because the listed band is the EU range, confirm with the SmartRooms Qatar team that it suits your site before committing to a purchase.

Where it fits across Qatar

• Press briefings in Msheireb: a government communications team moves a spokesperson between a podium and a seated panel without cable runs across the floor.
• Lecture halls in Education City: a lecturer works from the lectern with a fixed gooseneck while the tablestand unit is passed to students for questions.
• Hotel conference rooms in West Bay: an events team places the microphone on a table for ad hoc panel discussions, then clears it for the next booking.

Operating temperature is 10 to 45 °C (50 to 113 °F), with relative humidity up to 95 %. Summer afternoons in Doha can climb above 45 °C, so keep the unit in air-conditioned rooms and away from outdoor stages, parked vehicles and sun-facing windowsills. Check room conditions with your AV contractor before placing it on a hot stage.
