Built on Revonic dual-engine transducer technology, the Nexadyne 8\/S supercardioid wireless microphone is designed for louder stages, closer monitor placement, and rooms where feedback control is a bigger concern than pickup width. This makes it a strong fit for broadcast studio wireless handheld microphone use, auditorium sound reinforcement, and house of worship installs running higher gain-before-feedback demands. It integrates directly into an existing Axient Digital wireless microphone system without any additional configuration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eProduct Description\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ADX2\/N8SB is built on the same Axient Digital wireless microphone system used across Shure's professional handheld line, giving AV integrators a consistent platform to standardize on across a venue or facility. The Nexadyne 8\/S supercardioid capsule narrows the pickup pattern compared to a cardioid capsule, rejecting more off-axis sound from monitors, adjacent microphones, and room reflections — a meaningful advantage in venues running higher stage volume or in-ceiling speakers positioned close to the performer or presenter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWide tuning bandwidth gives system designers room to coordinate this transmitter's frequency against in-ear monitors, other wireless mics, and RF from nearby broadcast operations. ShowLink remote control allows a technician to adjust gain, mute, RF power, and frequency from a distance, and automatic interference avoidance helps the system steer around RF conflicts mid-event. Standard and High-Density transmission modes let the same hardware serve either a single-mic install prioritizing maximum coverage, or a dense multi-channel broadcast studio wireless handheld microphone deployment prioritizing channel count. The SB920A rechargeable lithium-ion battery delivers up to 9 hours of runtime in single-carrier mode, with external charging contacts for fast dock-based recharging. The black anodized aluminum housing is moisture-resistant, with lockable controls and a backlit LCD that keeps channel, battery, and RF output status visible without navigating a menu.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNexadyne 8\/S Supercardioid Capsule\u003c\/strong\u003e — Revonic dual-engine transducer design with tighter off-axis rejection than cardioid capsules for higher gain-before-feedback.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAxient Digital Wireless Platform\u003c\/strong\u003e — Wide tuning bandwidth and AES-256 encrypted transmission for RF-congested commercial AV deployments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShowLink Remote Control\u003c\/strong\u003e — Remote adjustment of gain, mute, RF power, and frequency, with automatic interference avoidance.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard and High-Density Transmission Modes\u003c\/strong\u003e — Balance maximum coverage against maximum channel count based on venue RF density.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSB920A Rechargeable Battery\u003c\/strong\u003e — Up to 9 hours of single-carrier runtime with external dock-charging contacts.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSelectable RF Output Power (2\/10\/40 mW)\u003c\/strong\u003e — Match output to venue size and regulatory limits.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMoisture-Resistant Aluminum Housing\u003c\/strong\u003e — Black finish, lockable controls, backlit LCD for daily commercial use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTypical Applications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHouse of worship\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBroadcast studio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuditorium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCommercial meeting space\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll-hands room\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraining room\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x:auto;\"\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSystem Compatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShure Axient Digital Wireless System\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMicrophone Capsule\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNexadyne 8\/S Supercardioid Dynamic, Black finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePolar Pattern\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSupercardioid\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTuning Bandwidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWide tuning, up to 184 MHz (band-dependent)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTransmission Modes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStandard and High-Density\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRemote Control\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eShowLink with automatic interference avoidance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRF Output Power\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2 \/ 10 \/ 40 mW, selectable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBattery\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSB920A rechargeable lithium-ion; up to 9 hours (single-carrier mode)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEncryption\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAES-256\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHousing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMoisture-resistant aluminum, black finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDisplay\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBacklit LCD with lockable controls\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the ADX2\/N8SB compatible with existing Axient Digital receivers?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes.
