Shure Brothers MX202WP-A/S Overhead Supercardioid Mic

Product Description

The SHURE BROTHERS INC MX202WP-A/S is a white overhead hanging wired microphone with a supercardioid polar pattern. Designed for permanent or semi-permanent ceiling and overhead installations, it captures audio from a focused forward direction while rejecting off-axis noise and feedback. The supercardioid pattern makes it well suited for environments where multiple microphones are used in close proximity. Licensed audio installers and AV integration technicians are the primary trades that specify and install this type of microphone in architectural and commercial settings.

This overhead hanging microphone is intended for commercial and institutional applications such as conference rooms, houses of worship, lecture halls, courtrooms, and performing arts venues. It is suspended from above, keeping the microphone out of sight lines while maintaining consistent pickup coverage of a defined area below. The white finish allows it to blend with standard drop-ceiling and painted overhead surfaces. It ships as a single unit and is intended for use with compatible preamplifier or mixing system inputs.

Key Features

• Supercardioid polar pattern provides focused pickup and strong rejection of off-axis sound sources
• White finish designed to blend with overhead ceiling installations
• Overhead hanging form factor keeps the microphone out of sightlines and work surfaces
• Wired connection ensures stable, latency-free signal transmission without battery dependency
• Compact design suited for discreet architectural integration in permanent installations

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or primary install component for commercial overhead hanging wired microphone applications requiring a supercardioid pickup pattern.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed AV integrator or low-voltage technician. Route and secure all cabling to local building codes before finalizing the hang position. Power down or mute the connected preamplifier or mixing console before making or breaking microphone connections. Avoid sharp bends in the cable at the strain relief point to prevent signal degradation over time.
