Shure ULXD2/N8SB Digital Handheld Wireless Transmitter with Nexadyne 8/S Capsule G57 Band

The Shure ULXD2/N8SB delivers premium 24-bit/48 kHz digital wireless vocal performance with uncompromising audio clarity and RF reliability for professional live sound, broadcast, and installed applications. Equipped with the Nexadyne 8/S supercardioid dynamic microphone capsule featuring patented Revonic dual-engine transducer technology, it provides focused, natural vocal reproduction with strong off-axis rejection and minimized handling noise. Operating in the G57 band (470–608 MHz) with wide tuning, the transmitter supports AES 256-bit encryption for secure transmission and Shure Gain Ranging that optimizes dynamic range without manual transmitter adjustments.

Constructed with a rugged machined aluminum body, the ULXD2 includes a backlit LCD for intuitive menu navigation, selectable RF output power (1, 10, or 20 mW), frequency and power lockout, and an integrated helical antenna. It offers over 12 hours of runtime with the optional SB900C lithium-ion rechargeable battery (precision metering in hours and minutes) or up to 8 hours with two AA alkaline batteries. The transmitter mute mode repurposes the power switch for audio muting while maintaining RF presence. It integrates seamlessly with ULX-D receivers and supports Dante networking when paired with compatible ULX-D components.

This handheld transmitter excels in high-channel-count environments such as theaters, houses of worship, corporate events, and touring productions where secure, high-fidelity vocal wireless is required with minimal setup and maximum control.
