U4S and U4D Wireless Receivers
NOTE: This product has been discontinued. Please see ULX Wireless and UHF-R Wireless.
Again, UHF provides flexibility and performance with two receiver choices, the U4S with a single receiver design, and the U4D, a dual-channel receiver, both featuring Shure's exclusive MARCAD® Diversity circuitry.
(Discontinued) UHF Wireless Single and Dual Channel MARCAD Diversity Receivers with 1/2 Wave Antennas.
Two single-rack space versions:
- U4S Single Channel Diversity
- U4D Dual Channel Diversity
Easy-to-read, programmable, multi-function LD to set and view:
- Actual freqency in megahertz
- Group/Channel
- Performer/system name
- Squelch setting
- Menu lock-out status
- Battery fuel guage
- UHF TV channel (in U.S. and some international versions
- RF, audio and diversity metering
- Independent headphone monitor
- Network extension capability
- Switching internal power supply
- Two half-wave, flexible rubber antennas
- Tone key squelch
- Mic/line switch
- Five-segment RF level indicators
- Seven-segment audio level indicators
- XLR connector provides balanced low-impedance mic or line level output
- 1/4 inch phone plug provides unbalanced high-impedance output
- Mic/line slide switch
RF Carrier Frequency Range
554–862 MHz, depending on region
Working Range
U1: 152.4 m (500 ft.) minimum, under typical conditions; 487.6 m (1600 ft.) line of sight
NOTE: Actual working range depends on RF signal absorption, reflection and interference
Audio Frequency Response
50–15,000 Hz, +2 dB.
NOTE: Overall system frequency response depends on the microphone element
Gain Adjustment Range
U1: 0 to 40 dB
U2: 0 to 26 dB
Modulation
+10kHz to +100kHz deviation, depending on region; compressor-expander system with pre- and de-emphasis
RF Power Output
U1, U2: 10 mW maximum
Dynamic Range
>102 dB or >110dB, depending on region; A-weighted
Image Rejection
90 dB typical
RF Sensitivity
Spurious Rejection
75 dB typical
Ultimate Quieting (ref. 45 kHz deviation)
>100 dB, A-weighted
Audio Polarity
Positive pressure on microphone diaphragm (or positive voltage applied to tip of WA302 phone plug) produces positive voltage on pin 2 with respect to pin 3 of low impedance output and the tip of the high impedance 1/4-inch output
System Distortion (ref. +45 kHz deviation, 1 kHz modulation)
0.3% Total Harmonic Distortion typical
Power Requirements
U1, U2: 1.5V AA alkaline battery; Nicad optional
U4: 90 to 230 Vac, 50/60 Hz
Power Consumption
U4S: 9.6 W min., 13.2 W max.
U4D: 12 W min.,16 W max.
Battery Life (Typical)
U1, U2: 12 hours
Operating Temperature Range
–20° to 50° C (–4° to 122° F)
NOTE: Battery characteristics may limit this range
