The Shure HA-8091 is a domed helical antenna designed to provide reliable wireless signal transmission or reception with improved bandwidth and range for system integrators and audio engineers in large-scale live stage applications. 360° polarization reduces dropouts and yields dependable RF energy for receivers and transmitters, whether stationary or mobile. It operates in the 460 to 900 MHz frequency range and offers 14 dB of rear rejection. With 9 to 11 dBi of gain, signal strength is not compromised. A right-angle BNC female connector ensures standard connectivity.

Ideal for use in large-scale events, where it may be improbable to control the orientation of sending and receiving ends of the wireless system

Unlike traditional whip antennas which transmit and receive signals in a single polarization, the circular motion of the RF field emitted by the helical antenna distributes the signal through all possible polarization, greatly reducing the risk of dropouts

High gain ensures strong signal

RF energy rotates through all 360 degrees of polarization, providing clear reception in the artist's ears and in the wireless mic's receiver no matter how they may move about on stage

Use as a transmitting antenna or a receiving antenna

Dual mounting adapter supports 5/8"-27 and 3/8"-16 standards

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Will this work as a replacement antenna for the psm600 transmitter?

A: This would work with PSM systems but you just have to make sure you purchase the antenna that matches the frequency range your PSM system is using. This antenna is available in 12 different frequency ranges. Make sure the one you purchases matches the system you already own.

Q: 2. Does this antenna come in pairs?

A: The Shure UA8-470-636 Wideband 1/2 Wave Receiver Antenna (A: 470 to 636 MHz) is a single antenna, not a pair.

Q: 3. Does it come with the mounting bracket and required connectors?

A: The Shure UA8-2.4-5.8 Dual-Band Omnidirectional Antenna includes the mounting bracket.

Q: 4. Most Shure receivers have two antennas... so do I need to purchase two of these? One for each BNC cable?

A: Yes, that is correct. The UA864 manual discusses optimal antenna placement: https://pubs.shure.com/guide/UA864/en-US

Q: 5. Does it work for BLX4R j10 system?

A: Yes, the Shure UA8-470-636 Wideband 1/2 Wave Receiver Antenna (A: 470 to 636 MHz) is compatible with the Shure BLX4R Rackmount Wireless Receiver.

Q: 6. Is it compatable with shure axient?

A: No, the Shure UA860SWB Passive Omnidirectional Antenna is not compatible for use with the Shure Axient series wireless receivers.

Q: 7. I have two Lectrosonics IFB receivers. Can I use a splitter for this one antenna if the receivers are on the same block? I want to be able to send video village one signal and the boom op another.

A: Splitting the antenna feed is not recommended. The quality of the signal may be diminished.

Q: 8. Do I need two of these (to connect to both the A and B side of my SLX system)?

A: While not required, two Shure UA860SWB Passive Omnidirectional Antennae, one for each antenna input on a Shure receiver, could be used. In many cases, an omnidirectional antenna such as the UA860SWB is paired with a directional, "paddle" antenna such as the Shure UA874 Active Directional Antenna (BH #SHUA874US). This allows for a general, expanded coverage area from the omnidirectional antenna, while the paddle dials in a directional pickup pointed towards the system's transmitter.

Q: 9. How does it takes its power ? And can I use it with Panasonic camera model AG-HPX500P ?

A: The antenna is made by Shure and will only work with Shure products. The Shure systems it will work with are the SLX, ULX, UC, UHF, and UHF-R wireless systems.

Q: 10. can i use the Shure HA-8089antenna with sennheiser g3 ew 100 (518-560) ?

A: Sennheiser recommends if you are using a Sennheiser wireless system, to use the A5000CP Passive Circulary Polarized UHF Wide-Band Antenna for Wireless Microphones and Monitor Systems (450 - 960MHz). B&H part # SEA5000CP.
