General Description

The UA834 provides more flexibility in wireless installations by increasing

the allowable length of cable runs between a receiver and antenna. Antennas

may be placed closer to the stage, or installed on ceilings and walls that

maintain a better line of sight with the transmitter.

Features

• Low-noise signal amplifier compensates for insertion loss in coaxial cable

• Compatible with Shure Wireless Systems. Also may be used with Shure

UA845 and UA844 Antenna Distribution Systems

• Integrated threaded adapter mounts easily to microphone stands or the

supplied surface-mount bracket

• Two-position gain selector switch

• LED indicator for RF signal overload

• Shure quality, ruggedness, and reliability

NOTE: Antenna amplifiers are intended to compensate for signal loss in ca-

bles, not for increasing the range of the antenna. Attempting to “boost” the

signal beyond nominal levels only results in overloading the circuit and reduc-

ing performance.

Indicators and Settings

①DC POWER RF OVERLOAD/

Green: Indicates it is receiving power from the antenna input on the receiver

or combiner.

Red: Signal from the antenna (at the input) is too strong.TO ANTENNA

Remove the inline amplifier or move it further down the cable run.

②GAIN

Set the gain switch to +6 dB for shorter cable runs, and +12 dB for longer

runs.

RF Overload

RF overload can occur at the input to the inline amplifier or at the input to the

receiver. An overload at either point degrades the signal.

When there is an RF overload indicator on the inline amplifier, the amplifier

might not be necessary, or it should be placed further down the cable run at

a midpoint between the antenna and receiver. The gain switch only affects

output gain, and cannot compensate for input overload at the amplifier.

If there is an RF overload signal on the receiver, reduce the gain on the inline

amplifier, or move it further up the cable run so there is more cable between

the receiver and the amplifier. Note that the overload level for the amplifier

might be greater than that for the receiver input, so it cannot be used to indi-

cate whether the signal will overload the receiver at that point in the cable

run.

Installation

Connect between the antenna and receiver (or antenna distribution system), as shown. The DC POWER LED illuminates green when the receiver is powered

on.

• Use Shure low-loss coaxial antenna cable (or any 50 ohm, low-loss cable.

• The quality of the cable, not just the length, contributes to signal loss. A lighter grade 50 foot cable may require more gain than a 100 foot, low-loss cable.

• Active antennas, such as the UA874, have a built-in amplifier, and may not require additional amplification.

Caution: Use only Shure antenna accessories to ensure the best operation. Do not use splitters, combiners, or antennas that provide a DC ground. If necessary,

use a BNC DC block device (compatible with the receiver RF band).

In-Line Antenna Amplifier

TO ANTENNA

Attach the antenna to the connector labeled TO ANTENNA

TO RECEIVER

Use the supplied surface-mount bracket on walls or ceilings, or mount on a standard microphone stand.

>50 ft.

Use a maximum of two in-line antenna amplifiers for extremely long cable runs or for two runs of lighter-grade cable, as shown

Cable Maintenance

To maintain top performance for antenna cables:

• Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the cables.

• Do not deform cables with makeshift clamps, such as bending a nail over the cable.

• Do not use in permanent outdoor installations.

• Do not expose to extreme moisture.

Selecting Antenna Cables

Use 50 ohm low-loss coaxial cable, such as RG-8U. Shure offers pre-terminated antenna cables ranging from 6 to 100 feet.

NOTE: When ordering cables from Shure, select the low-loss "Z" models (available for longer cables) when using frequency bands above 1000 MHz.

Antenna Placement

Use the following guidelines when mounting antennas:

• Antennas and receivers must be from the same band.

• Mount antennas one wavelength (two feet) apart.at least

• Position antennas so there is nothing obstructing a line of sight to the

transmitter (including the audience).

• Keep antennas away from metal objects.

Important: Always perform a "walk around" test to verify coverage before

using a wireless system during a speech or performance. Experiment with

antenna placement to find the optimum location. If necessary, mark "trouble

spots" and ask presenters or performers to avoid those areas.

Setting Gain

The gain setting should only be used to compensate for the calculated cable

signal loss. Additional signal gain does not mean better RF performance.

Too much gain actually reduces reception range and the number of available

channels. This is because Shure receivers are optimized to deliver the best

performance when the sum of signal gain and cable loss equals 0 dB. Addi-

tional gain just amplifies everything in the RF range—including interference

and ambient RF noise. It cannot selectively increase the signal from the

transmitter.

• Use the lowest gain setting necessary to achieve good reception of the

transmitter RF signal, as indicated on the receiver’s RF LED or meter.

• Only increase the gain setting to compensate for the calculated cable

loss.

• The resulting signal level at the receiver (cable loss plus amplification)

should be within ±5 dB of the original signal level at the antenna.

Calculating Gain Settings

To calculate the required gain setting, obtain the cable manufacturer's

specification for signal loss. The rated loss usually varies with RF frequency

in addition to cable length.

Multiply the per 100 feet rating of the cable by cable length to determine

signal loss, and add gain as necessary to compensate. For example: a 50

ft. cable with rated loss of -12dB per 100 ft. would calculate as

(-12dB/100)*50 = -6dB and require +6dB of gain for a sum total of 0

dB loss.
