Product Overview
The Shure RPM53C/O-MTQG is a genuine OEM replacement boom arm for the TwinPlex TH53 subminiature headset microphone in cocoa finish, terminating in an MTQG (TA4F) connector. This replacement part is designed for professionals who deploy the TH53C (cocoa) in Shure wireless systems, where the MTQG connector is the standard interface across the majority of Shure bodypack transmitters. When a TH53 boom arm is damaged or worn, the RPM53C/O-MTQG restores factory specification performance and fit for the TH53C headset without replacing the entire microphone assembly.
Product Description
The RPM53C/O-MTQG retains the TH53's clutch adjustment system for fast boom arm repositioning during performer changeovers, a key operational requirement in theater and broadcast production. The cocoa finish reduces on-camera and on-stage visibility against darker complexions and hair. The MTQG (TA4F) connector is the most common interface on Shure wireless bodypack transmitters, making this a natural replacement for users operating within the Shure wireless ecosystem. The 1.6 mm cable maintains dual redundant ground construction for a secondary RF shield in wireless-dense environments. For wired TQG-to-XLR conversion, see the Shure RPM400TQG TwinPlex Preamp.
