wireless on A new sc Ale
Offering you more productivity, more reliability and more control, UHF-R is premier wireless
technology that helps you master the complexities of large-scale wireless installations.
UHF -
R takes wireless to a completely new level.
Unparalleled control for complex installations.
UHF-R automates setup and control operations to save you time and effort on even the most complex networked
installations. UHF-Rs usability innovations include networked Automatic Frequency Selection with group scan,
infrared automatic transmitter sync and smart menu-driven system operation for fast setup and intuitive operation.
Superior RF performance and reliability for every installation.
With 2400 selectable frequencies across 60 MHz of bandwidth, UHF-R provides up to 40 simultaneous compatible
systems per band. Advanced Track Tuning Filtering Technology, by shifting the RF filter along with the selected
frequency, allows you to deploy this added bandwidth without audio degradation or interference. All UHF-R
components -“ including the compact, sweat-resistant bodypack -“ are engineered to withstand the abuses of
the road. You can rely on UHF-R for consistently reliable performance, always.
Crystal-clear audio that sounds more like wired.
Shures patented Audio Reference Companding delivers crystal-clear audio transmission, far superior
to conventional wireless. Unlike other wireless systems, Shure uses a variable companding ratio that
responds to the audio level -“ eliminating wireless artifacts and substantially increasing dynamic range.
Audio Reference Companding
These impulse response graphs show how a transient signal is reproduced through a Shure Beta 87A -„¢ capsule in three
ways: through a wired mic, through a wireless system with Audio Reference Companding, and through a conventional
wireless system. The Audio Reference Companding graph is virtually identical to the wired graph, while the conventional
wireless system shows far less accurate audio reproduction.
