RF Protection
With outstanding signal quality in even the most complex, congested environments, Axient® Digital ensures maximum stability, range, and clarity for uncompromising audio – anywhere, every time.
Next-Gen Digital Radio + Channel Quality Metering
A high-performance modulation scheme provides maximum signal stability. The 5-segment Channel Quality meter allows for real-time analysis of RF signalto-noise, enabling operating range assessments and visibility into potential interference.
Spectral Efficiency
A robust High Density transmission mode increases system channel count dramatically – with up to 47 active channels per 6MHz TV band (63 channels/8MHz) – all the while maintaining exceptional audio quality.
True Digital Diversity
Mounting a better defence against multipath, fading events, and other RF anomalies, Axient Digital combines two discrete RF signals per receiver channel using a quality-based maximal-ratio-combining algorithm.
Quadversity™
By assigning four antenna inputs to a single channel, Quadversity can provide extended coverage and the option for separate zones, plus added resistance against multipath interference and RF noise.
Wide Tuning Receivers and Transmitters
An expansive tuning bandwidth of up to 184MHz across all receivers and transmitters supplies broad strategic spectrum coverage, while simplifying inventories for both sellers and operators.
Operating Range
Selectable transmission modes and power levels enable optimum range and audio quality, with analogue-type resilience, artifact-free muting, and fast signal recovery at end of range.
Frequency Diversity
Signal quality is maximised by transmitting two identical signals on independent frequencies. If the active signal degrades, the other takes over automatically. With the ADX2FD handheld transmitter, Axient Digital monitors and combines the transmissions for a flawless audio signal.
Interference Detection and Avoidance
With real-time monitoring via the AXT600 Spectrum Manager, sound engineers can neutralise RF interference by manually switching the signal to a clear backup frequency, or by programming the system to do it automatically.
Audio Quality
Axient® Digital defies limitations for both RF and audio quality. With industry-leading low latency, transparent frequency response, and wide dynamic range, nothing gets in the way of true, pure sound. No matter the setting, it’s Shure audio quality you can count on.
Ultra-low Latency
A best-in-class 2 milliseconds from microphone transducer to analogue output guarantees seamless, cohesive sound.* *Latency is mode dependent. High Density mode latency is 2.9 ms.
Transparent Sound
A flat frequency response over a wide range from 20Hz to 20KHz provides accurate audio reproduction.
Digital Outputs
Dante™ digital audio transmits via a configurable 4-port switch for combined control/audio or separate streams with redundancy. AES3 output provides an additional option for pristine digital audio.
Encryption
An Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) 256-bit encrypted signal ensures that every transmission is secure and unbreachable.
Dynamic Range
Wide dynamic range of >120dB yields impressive signal-to-noise performance and accurate transient response.
Command and Control
ShowLink® remote control, Wireless Workbench®, the ShurePlus™ Channels app, and networked battery monitoring provide unmatched control and insight, for seamless performance.
Wireless Workbench® and the ShurePlusTM Channels App
Wireless Workbench offers total control – with an enhanced interface, access to advanced RF spectrum and Timeline plotting, frequency coordination, and live performance monitoring. Control and monitor capabilities can also be extended to a mobile device with the ShurePlus Channels iOS app.
ShowLink® Remote Control
ADX transmitters with ShowLink give engineers comprehensive real-time remote control of all transmitter parameters using a robust 2.4GHz diversity wireless connection, so settings can be changed right from the control booth.
Dante™ Cue and Dante™ Browse
Dante Cue enables monitoring of every Axient Digital channel on the network through a single headphone output, with the single push of a button. Plus, Dante Browse offers high-fidelity monitoring of any Dante enabled device on the network.
Networked Charging
Smart, high-performance batteries and chargers provide detailed visibility and remote monitoring of critical parameters such as remaining runtime in hours and minutes and charging status.
Receivers
One receiver platform is the gateway to the full range of features, from high-performance RF and transparent digital audio, to software control. With Quadversity™, the AD4Q can assign four antennas to a single channel for greater coverage and signal quality.
