COMMSHIELD® TECHNOLOGY IMPROVES RF RESISTANCE.
All Microflex® models offer CommShield Technology, which guards against unwanted radio interference from consumer wireless devices such as cell phones and PDA’s. Shure engaged their development teams to redesign Microflex microphones to be highly resistant to radio frequency interference such as might be experienced with GSM cell phone technology and to implement design techniques such as multilayer circuit boards, improved grounding techniques, tighter enclosures for improved shielding, and improved microphone cable and audio connectors. The combination of improved techniques is utilized to deliver Microflex microphones that are highly resistant to intense nearby radio signals.
Compact, Clear, and Connected.
