SLXD3 Transmitter, Plug-on
Shure SLXD3 plug-on wireless transmitter converts any XLR source to wireless, normally in conjunction with a dynamic and condenser microphone connected via the patented locking ring. SLXD3 sends 24-bit digital audio from any XLR source to an SLXD4 or SLXD5 digital wireless receiver via a 'rock-solid' RF connection. IR Sync is employed to pair the transmitter quickly with the SLX-D wireless receiver. A bright OLED screen displays battery life in hours and minutes when used with the optional SB903 rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery cell.
SLX3 can provide +12 to +48V phantom power for use with connected condenser microphone, whilst up to 8 hours use can be achieved using 2x AA batteries or a single, optional SB903 rechargeable battery cell. With a regional dependant tuning band 44MHz, and 32 available channels per frequency band, SLXD3 can operate up to 10 compatible systems per 6MHz TV band; or 12 systems per 8 MHz band.
