Shure Axient Wireless Systems: Achieving New Ground In RF System Management





The new Shure Axient line of wireless microphone systems is a groundbreaking addition to the arsenal of Shure Wireless.  The Axient system is utilized using the Axient Spectrum Manager, the software Wireless Workbench, Showlink Remote Control, and the Rack Mount Charging Station. With the combination of these individual systems, Axient is a powerhouse in RF management.

The Axient's application is best used in situations where wireless failure is not an option. Such examples would be in a Theatre, Large Scale Concert, or even in a Political application. When a radio frequency is compromised by interference most systems will fail, in the case of Axient it's Spectrum Manager pairs two frequencies to a channel. So when interference is met, Axient seamlessly transitions between the two, with no audible drop out. The software component is where Axient is most user friendly. Workbench allows you to remotely view the wireless receivers to monitor battery life, the real time frequency bands, as well as giving you full control over module changes. In addition the Showlink Remote control uses a wireless transmitter/receiver to output a larger spectrum of control. Thus allowing you to cover more space with your system. Showlink is also how you can make real time wireless adjustments to your transmitters such as mute, RF output, and power. Power is a huge obstacle to tackle with wireless microphones. Most companies run off of a higher grade alkaline battery, which are often unreliable since wireless systems eat up battery life. Rechargeable batteries are also as unreliable leaving your choices slim, so stocking up on batteries and making constant replacements is the decision of many. Axient offers a new lithium ion rechargeable battery that used in correlation to it's rack mountable recharging station allows you to monitor your batteries life cycles, and status at all times.

The Shure Axient system is a new triumph in wireless technology, and RF management. Shure is one of the biggest names in professional audio, and they are clearly now the frontrunner in the wireless realm.
