Shure MX405LP/S – 5" Supercardioid Gooseneck Microphone
Product Overview
The Shure MX405LP/S supercardioid gooseneck microphone is a 5-inch low-profile condenser built for one-microphone-per-talker speech capture in conference rooms, boardrooms, and lecterns. Its tight supercardioid pattern improves gain-before-feedback and rejects side and rear noise, a benefit in commercial AV installations with multiple open microphones. The "LP" version ships without a preamp for direct integration with Microflex and ULX-D systems.
Product Description
The MX405LP/S pairs an interchangeable supercardioid cartridge with a 12.7 cm (5 in) gooseneck and a bottom bi-color LED status indicator. The narrower pickup suits dense seating layouts and reverberant rooms where channel isolation matters. For permanent installation, this conference room microphone mounts through a table or lectern via the Shure MX400SMP surface-mount preamp (sold separately) and integrates with automatic mixers for gated, logic-controlled operation. CommShield RF filtering protects against mobile and wireless interference, while a switchable 150 Hz low-cut filter reduces HVAC rumble. A snap-fit windscreen adds 30 dB of pop protection. 
Key Features
- Supercardioid Pickup Pattern — The tight pattern isolates a single talker and improves gain-before-feedback in multi-mic rooms.
- Low-Profile 5" Gooseneck — The compact 12.7 cm gooseneck keeps sightlines clear on tables and lecterns.
- Bottom Bi-Color LED — The indicator shows active (green) and muted (red) states for clear talker feedback.
- CommShield RF Protection — Integrated RF filtering guards audio from cellphone and wireless interference.
- Switchable Low-Cut Filter — A 150 Hz filter attenuates room rumble and HVAC noise for cleaner speech.
- Interchangeable Cartridge — The polar pattern can be changed without replacing the gooseneck, simplifying maintenance.
- Preamp-Free Integration — The LP version connects directly to Microflex Wireless and ULX-D bases or the MX400SMP preamp.
