Shure ULXD8 Wireless Gooseneck Base Transmitter - No Mic (J50 Band: 572-636 MHz)

The Shure ULXD8 is a professional digital wireless gooseneck base transmitter designed to provide secure, high-quality audio capture for fixed installation applications such as conference rooms, council chambers, lecture halls, and houses of worship. This transmitter functions as the radio frequency (RF) and signal-processing component of a wireless gooseneck microphone system, onto which a compatible Shure gooseneck microphone capsule is attached. Operating within Shure's ULX-D digital wireless ecosystem, it utilizes advanced 24-bit/48 kHz digital audio transmission to deliver crystal-clear sound with a wide dynamic range and exceptionally low noise, ensuring that speech is captured with outstanding clarity and detail for recording, streaming, or live reinforcement.

The ULXD8 is engineered for reliability in dense RF environments, featuring Automatic Frequency Selection and advanced encryption to protect against interference and unauthorized reception. It is powered via the included network-style Power over Ethernet (PoE) injector, which simplifies installation by carrying both power and control data over a single standard Ethernet cable. This allows for centralized power management and remote monitoring/control through Shure's proprietary software, enabling system administrators to manage gain, frequency, and other parameters from a computer without needing physical access to the transmitter. The unit's sleek, low-profile design is intended to be discreet on a lectern or table, and it includes a locking connector to securely attach and prevent accidental removal of the gooseneck microphone.

As a component-only unit, the ULXD8 is supplied without a microphone capsule, providing the flexibility to pair it with the specific Shure gooseneck capsule that best suits the application's acoustic needs and aesthetic requirements. It is designed to work seamlessly with ULX-D series receivers to create a complete, license-free wireless channel. By combining the convenience of wireless connectivity with the stability and audio quality of a digital wired system, the Shure ULXD8 offers a sophisticated and future-proof solution for demanding installed audio applications where clean, reliable speech capture is critical.
