The Shure UA8-470-636 is a single half-wave omnidirectional dipole antenna designed for compatible Shure wireless receivers and personal monitor transmitters operating between 470 and 636MHz. Its BNC connection and adjustable joint make it suitable for front-rack antenna placement in touring, installed sound, broadcast, corporate audiovisual, and house-of-worship systems.
The Shure UA8-470-636 is designed for professional wireless systems operating across the 470–636MHz UHF range. Its half-wave dipole construction provides an omnidirectional reception pattern, making it useful for wireless microphone systems in venues where transmitters may move throughout the performance area.
The integrated pivoting joint allows the antenna to be positioned at 0 degrees, 45 degrees, or 90 degrees. This flexibility helps installers arrange antennas correctly when attached directly to a receiver or relocated to the front panel of an equipment rack.
A standard BNC connector provides straightforward installation with compatible Shure wireless receivers, personal monitor transmitters, antenna distribution systems, and rackmount antenna hardware. Compatibility depends on the connected device operating within the antenna’s 470–636MHz frequency range.
The UA8-470-636 is suited to touring productions, live venues, houses of worship, theaters, broadcast facilities, corporate audiovisual systems, and rental companies using compatible Shure wireless equipment. It is supplied as one antenna rather than a matched pair.
