Polar Patterns and Polarization
The BF1 is an omnidirectional antenna. There is some rejection on the top and bottom of the antenna but think of it as an omni.
Wherever your transmitters are on set, your antenna will “see” them. The BF1 is also passive, meaning you can use it on your transmitter for IFB and IEM systems.

Use case
One major benefit of using the BF1 is that it lowers the total number of antennas your devices need to function. This greatly reduces the chance of the antennas interfering with each other and compromising your transmission.
Additionally, because this is an external antenna, you can remote it in problematic shooting situations such as transmitting through walls or metal structures.
