Product Description

The SHURE BROTHERS INC. UA8-470-542 is a half-wave omnidirectional antenna designed for use with compatible wireless microphone systems. Operating as a passive receive antenna, it captures RF signal across its coverage pattern and feeds it to a wireless receiver, supporting reliable audio transmission in live sound, broadcast, and installed-sound environments. The half-wave design provides a broad, omnidirectional pickup pattern suited to applications where the transmitter position is variable or unpredictable. Installation is handled by audio-visual and sound system technicians.

This antenna is intended for use as a microphone system accessory in applications that require extended or improved RF reception. Typical install scenarios include stage performances, houses of worship, conference rooms, and broadcast studios where wireless microphone systems are in regular use.
