In this video, we setup 4x Shure QLXD systems with a Shure UA844+SWB antenna and power distribution unit. The setup is temporarily staged in a tabletop rack and later to be permanently installed in the location properly.
For the detailed items included in each unit, see the unboxing videos of each product.
This video is not sponsored and all items were purchased to be used in local projects.
Overall this is a great solid system, and works perfectly. The Antenna and power distribution unit is a great combination for these units, and can be used in tiered configurations for larger installations.
The setup was later networked together using the network ports and connected to other systems to be used with wireless workbench. Great setup with solid gear for awesome performance.
If you're working alone or hate dropping screws be sure to pick up the Makita Impact Gold Bit holder:

If you want to get a kit with different bits, get this: amzn.to/3bmFsvJ
These bit holders are GOLD when you're working alone.
SHURE UA844+SWB
The UA844+SWB UHF Wideband Antenna Distribution System from Shure is for the expansion of a Shure wireless microphone system. It can be used to split one pair of antennas to multiple receivers and amplify the RF signal to compensate for the insertion loss.
A single UA844+ system can support up to five wireless receivers. A maximum of five UA844+ systems may be used in a two-tiered configuration. The system is compatible with the Shure QLX-D, ULX, ULX-D, SLX, and BLX4R wireless receivers.
SHURE QLX-D
he Shure QLXD4 is a digital half-rack wireless receiver housed in a rugged, full-metal chassis and compatible with QLXD1 bodypack and QLXD2 handheld transmitters. It provides instructors, presenters, and broadcasters with professional-quality audio, reliable RF performance, and secure AES 256-bit encryption. Easy to set up and operate, it is ideal for use in TV broadcast or sound-reinforcement applications in medium-sized venues and houses of worship, as well as A/V installations in conference, educational, and corporate facilities.
The QLXD4 operates in the G50: 470 to 534 MHz UHF band with a 64 MHz tuning range and 2560 selectable frequencies. It delivers pristine 24-bit/48 kHz digital audio with clarity, accurate low end, and crisp transient response. The receiver utilizes Digital Predictive Switching Diversity to protect the transmission from interference and provide solid RF signal stability without audio artifacts. You can run up to 60 mic channels at the same location.
The unit features audio and RF meters, 60 dB of gain control, and both mic/line XLR and 1/4" instrument outputs. A large LCD screen and intuitive controls let you quickly make adjustments, even in low-light situations. Additional features include automatic frequency scanning, IR sync, and internal limiting to prevent clipping.
The Ethernet port allows multiple receivers to be easily networked together for simplified frequency coordination and deployment via Shure's Wireless Workbench (WWB) software.
