Shure ADX1MTA=-X55 Digital Micro Bodypack Wireless Transmitter (X55: 941 to 960 MHz) (TAA-Compliant)

Product Overview

The Shure ADX1M Axient Digital micro bodypack transmitter is a TAA-compliant wireless transmitter purpose-built for professional productions and commercial AV deployments where transmitter concealment is a priority. At 68mm × 60mm × 18mm, the ADX1MTA=-X55 is among the smallest professional-grade wireless bodypacks available, operating in the X55 frequency band (941–960 MHz) with up to 184 MHz of tuning range. ShowLink Diversity remote control, High Density mode, and on-board encryption make it suitable for theater, broadcast, and government AV environments with demanding RF and security requirements.

Product Description

The ADX1M is part of the Shure Axient Digital Wireless System and pairs with ADX series receivers when matched to the same frequency band. The X55 band (941–960 MHz) operates in the 900 MHz range, which is typically less congested than traditional UHF frequencies—offering additional RF coordination headroom for high-density multi-channel installations. The patent-pending internal adaptive antenna optimizes signal quality when the transmitter is worn against the body. Ultem PEI construction provides heat resistance and durability suited to the physical demands of live productions. Sealed buttons and a recessed LEMO connector protect against sweat and moisture ingress. For the non-TAA version of this transmitter, see the Shure ADX1M Digital Micro Bodypack Wireless Transmitter at Creation Networks.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which Axient Digital receivers are compatible with the ADX1MTA=-X55?
The ADX1M is compatible with all Axient Digital receivers when matched to the X55 frequency band (941–960 MHz). Verify X55 band support on your specific receiver model before pairing.

Why choose the X55 band for a high-density wireless deployment?
The X55 band (941–960 MHz) is typically less congested than traditional UHF frequencies in commercial AV environments, providing additional RF coordination flexibility and reducing interference risk in large-channel-count installations.

Is the ADX1MTA=-X55 eligible for U.S. federal government procurement?
Yes. The TA= suffix confirms Trade Agreements Act (TAA) compliance, qualifying this transmitter for GSA Schedule contracts and other government procurement vehicles.

What batteries does the ADX1M use?
The ADX1M uses SB910M lithium-ion rechargeable batteries (two included). The SB910M is a different form factor than the SB910 used in the standard ADX1 transmitter.

What warranty applies to the ADX1M?
Shure provides a two-year limited warranty on the ADX1M. Creation Networks supports warranty claims and provides authorized service for commercial AV customers.
