Latin America. Shure announced that two of its main digital wireless systems, ULX-D and QLX-D, are now available in the VHF spectrum. These VHF options provide users with 42 MHz of tuning bandwidth in the spectrum that is as predictable and usable as the current UHF TV band.
As the spectrum landscape evolves, Shure continues its role as an industry advocate and information resource, providing users with new options that deliver the reliability and world-class sound quality that characterize Shure wireless systems.
The ULX-D and QLX-D VHF band systems are based on an existing range of Shure wireless products designed to offer alternatives to the increasingly populated UHF TV Band, which includes systems capable of operating in the 900 MHz (ULX-D and QLX-D), DECT (Microflex® Wireless), and 2.4GHz (GLX-D® Digital Wireless) band.
The ULX-D and QLX-D VHF systems and accessories offer the same features and advantages as UHF systems, including spectrum efficiency, powerful charging accessories, network options and robust construction for everyday use. The ULX-D Digital Wireless System offers extremely efficient RF performance, network control, Dante™ digital audio (on dual and quad ULXD4D and ULXD4Q receivers), and AES-256 encryption for professional sound reinforcement.
The QLX-D achieves defined and optimized performance with transparent 24-bit digital audio. By combining professional features with simplified setup and operation, the QLX-D offers exceptional wireless functionality for events and live sound installations.
A variety of new VHF-ready accessories are available with VHF versions of ULX-D and QLX-D, including the UA844+V antenna distribution system, the UA834V in-line amplifier, the UA874V active directional antenna and the UA860V ground-referenced passive omnidirectional antenna. The UA845UWB antenna distribution system is switchable to UHF/VHF.
VHF versions of the ULX-D and QLX-D Digital Wireless Systems will be available in mid-2016. For more information, visit the Shure booth (#C2635) during NAB 2016, or visit es.shure.com. For high-resolution images, contact Catherine Ptasinski.
