Product Description

The SHURE BROTHERS INC UA8-470-530 is a half-wave omnidirectional antenna designed for use with compatible wireless microphone systems operating in the 470 to 530 MHz frequency range. This type of antenna provides a 360-degree radiation pattern in the horizontal plane, making it well suited for applications where the RF source may move around a coverage area. It is a passive receive antenna intended for professional audio and sound reinforcement setups. Installation is handled by audio-visual technicians and sound system integrators working in live sound, broadcast, or installed sound environments.

The UA8-470-530 is used in professional audio applications where a reliable antenna solution is needed for wireless microphone receivers operating in the UHF band between 470 and 530 MHz. Typical deployment scenarios include houses of worship, live event venues, conference rooms, and broadcast studios. The omnidirectional pattern eliminates the need to precisely aim the antenna toward the transmitter, simplifying antenna placement in distributed or wide-coverage installations.
