Lectrosonics Now Shipping IFBT2.0
Lectrosonics is set to announce at InfoComm 2026 that the IFB (Interruptible FoldBack) transmitter base station, the IFBT2.0, is now shipping.
The IFBT2.0 features enhanced, menu-selectable input connectivity including analog line and mic level, Dante and AES digital, Clear-com and RTS. The company said that the inputs are compatible with wet signals, allowing for use with connections where DC is present on the audio lines. The IFBT2.0 also includes USB-C and Ethernet connections for use with Wireless Designer software for system monitoring, frequency coordination and setup.
The IFBT2.0 offers IFB, NU Hybrid and EU Hybrid compatibility modes so that the unit can be used in IFB and other applications including point-to-point audio where audio fidelity is necessary. The transmitter unit is compatible with the line of IFBR1B, IFBR1C, legacy IFBR1 and IFBR1A receivers, as well as all Digital Hybrid Wireless and current digital Lectrosonics receivers from the Venue 2 to LR, DSQD, DCR822 and DSR4.
Lectrosonics said that three tuning ranges are now available for the new IFBT2.0 – A1 (470-537 MHz), B1 (537-614 MHz) and C1 (614-692 MHz). The three versions match the IFBR1B and IFBR1C (IFBlue) receiver packs. The IFBT2.0 offers user selectable RF power settings at 10, 25, 50, 100, and 250 mW. Each channel utilizes a circulator/isolator, aiming to allow RP signals to pass to the antennas, while blocking other signals.
Future firmware updates can be installed in the IFBT2.0 in the field via the USB-C jack on the front panel of the unit. The company said that the solution also includes rack mounting hardware and can be co-racked with Lectrosonics M2T or DSQD units or racked with the optional RMPRM2T-1 kit. The front panel features a color LCD for menu navigation and monitoring and tactile buttons.
Lectrosonics is set to showcase the IFBT2.0 IFB base station at the company’s booth at InfoComm 2026.
“The initial reactions to the new IFB base-station transmitter have been fantastic,” states Karl Winkler, EVP of product design and distribution at Lectrosonics. “Now that we have completed our initial production runs and received FCC, RCM, and CE certifications, our first rounds of customer orders have already
