Shure ADX5D Axient Digital Dual-Channel Portable Receiver
The Shure ADX5D puts two channels of Axient Digital reception in a slot-in receiver made to ride in a camera, a multi-coupler, or an audio bag.
Each channel has true digital diversity reception and tunes across up to 184 MHz, depending on region. Standard mode gives the best coverage, while High Density mode narrows each signal so more channels fit into a crowded band. Analog output latency is 2.08 ms in Standard mode.
ShowLink, Shure’s 2.4 GHz control link, runs in Direct mode on the ADX5D, so the receiver controls up to 16 ADX-series transmitters, eight per channel, with no access point. Select portable mixers and recorders can also scan, deploy frequencies, adjust gain, and read transmitter batteries through the receiver. A 3.5 mm output feeds headphones or a balanced line input.
Backplates and Power
The ADX5D takes one of three backplates, each sold separately. The ADX5BP-TA3 has two TA3 outputs and a 4-pin Hirose power input for standalone use, and only this backplate accepts the ADX5BS-L and ADX5BS-AA battery sleds. The ADX5BP-DB15 fits cameras with a 15-pin slot, such as Sony models, and the ADX5BP-DB25 fits SuperSlot and UniSlot multi-couplers.
Choose the band that matches your transmitters: A (470 to 636 MHz), B (606 to 810 MHz), or C (925 to 1000 MHz).
