The Shure UA860 is a passive wide band UHF omnidirectional antenna. The UA860 is weather resistant and suitable for temporary outdoor use. However, long-term exposure to moisture should be avoided.
To maintain top performance for 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.
Use the following guidelines when mounting antennas:
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.
