Shure MX202W-A/N Microflex Overhead Condenser Microphone White No Cartridge

Product Overview

The Shure MX202W-A is a Microflex overhead condenser microphone with an inline preamplifier in a White finish, designed for permanent overhead installation in conference rooms, houses of worship, performing arts centers, and commercial AV systems where a white ceiling match is required. The inline preamp offers flexible mounting across ceiling grid, suspension, and bracket configurations. Available with cardioid (MX202W-A/C), supercardioid (MX202W-A/S), lobar mini-shotgun (MX202W-A/MS), or no cartridge (MX202W-A/N) for integrator-specified coverage. The White finish blends with standard white commercial ceiling tile and suspension systems.

Product Description

The MX202W-A uses Shure's Microflex electret condenser platform with a frequency response of 50 Hz to 17,000 Hz for clear speech intelligibility and vocal capture in installed sound applications. The inline preamplifier and flexible gooseneck allow positioning in overhead configurations where a plate-mounted bracket is not required or desired. The interchangeable cartridge system allows the integrator to specify cardioid for focused overhead pickup, supercardioid for high-reverberance environments, or the lobar mini-shotgun (MS) for longer-throw applications from elevated mounting heights. The No Cartridge (/N) variant supports pre-installation of the housing before cartridge selection or accommodates facilities with existing MX200-series cartridge inventory.
