Shure MXW6W/O-Z10 Microflex Wireless Boundary Transmitter (Omnidirectional, White)

Product Overview

The Shure MXW6W/O-Z10 is a white low-profile wireless boundary transmitter for the Microflex Wireless neXt system, featuring an omnidirectional condenser microphone element and 1.9 GHz DECT operation with AES-256 encryption. The white finish suits conference rooms, training rooms, and commercial meeting spaces with light-colored decor, while the omnidirectional polar pattern provides uniform 360-degree speech pickup from all participants around the boundary. The SB906 rechargeable battery supports up to 17 hours of continuous use.

Product Description

The MXW6W/O-Z10 combines the discreet aesthetics of a white boundary form factor with the uniform speech coverage of an omnidirectional condenser capsule, making it appropriate for round-table conference rooms and huddle spaces where participants are positioned on multiple sides of the unit. Wireless range extends up to 160 feet (50 meters) with adjustable transmit power, and the transmitter integrates with room control systems for centralized mute management — a standard requirement in enterprise AV and government meeting space deployments. The always-on AES-256 encrypted audio link requires no administrator setup, meeting baseline security requirements for sensitive facilities. An earphone jack enables individual monitoring of translation or program audio feeds. For a cardioid white boundary option, see the Shure MXW6W/C-Z10.

Key Features

• White Finish for Light-Colored Installations — Matches white conference room furniture, tables, and ceiling systems for a consistent, professional AV installation appearance.
• Omnidirectional Condenser Element — Captures speech uniformly from all directions around the boundary, well-suited for round-table and distributed-seating conference configurations.
• AES-256 Encryption — Always-on encryption protects the wireless audio link without requiring manual configuration, meeting enterprise and government security standards.
• Up to 17-Hour Battery Life — The SB906 smart lithium-ion battery supports full-day conferencing operation with fast charging in the MXW docking station.
• 160-Foot Wireless Range — Adjustable transmit power maintains reliable wireless coverage up to 50 meters across mid-size and large commercial meeting rooms.
• Room Control System Integration — Remote mute/unmute support for Crestron, AMX, Q-SYS, and compatible room control platforms through the MXW network infrastructure.
• Programmable Mute Button — Push-to-talk, push-to-mute, or push-on/push-off configurations; can simultaneously control multiple linked transmitters from a single input.
• Earphone Jack — 3.5 mm output for individual real-time monitoring of translation, cueing, or program audio during managed conferencing sessions.
• Defeatable Power Switch — Power button lockout prevents accidental shutdown in unattended or automated conference room deployments.

Typical Applications

• White-finish round-table conference room boundary microphone installations
• Boardroom and commercial meeting space omni boundary for multi-sided participant coverage
• Training room and huddle room flexible wireless boundary microphone setups
• Government space and enterprise facilities requiring AES-encrypted wireless audio
• Multi-purpose room wireless boundary infrastructure with room control integration

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between the MXW6W/O-Z10 and the MXW6XW/O boundary transmitter?
The MXW6W/O-Z10 is the white-finish omnidirectional boundary transmitter for the Microflex Wireless neXt system in the 1.9 GHz (Z10) frequency band. Both designations refer to the same product family; consult Shure documentation for exact model mapping in your region.

Can the MXW6W/O-Z10 be remotely muted by a room automation system?
Yes. The transmitter supports remote mute and unmute commands through the Microflex Wireless network, compatible with Crestron, AMX, Q-SYS, and other control platforms used in commercial AV installations.

How does the omnidirectional pattern affect performance in acoustically reflective rooms?
In rooms with hard reflective surfaces, an omnidirectional boundary may pick up more room ambience than a cardioid. DSP processing (echo cancellation, noise reduction) in the connected conferencing processor is recommended for optimum intelligibility in challenging acoustic environments.

What warranty applies to the MXW6W/O-Z10?
Shure provides a two-year limited warranty on this product. For commercial AV procurement and support, contact Creation Networks at creationnetworks.net.
