Featuring breakthrough audio and mechanical design innovations, the
phantom-powered U851R offers outstanding speech intelligibility and transparent
sound quality for surface-mount applications. The microphone is equipped with a
PivotPoint™ rotating output connector, UniSteep® filter and UniGuard™ RFI-shielding
technology. It accepts interchangeable condenser elements—available for boundary
microphones in cardioid, hypercardioid and omnidirectional polar patterns. With
a heavy die-cast case and silicon foam bottom pads to minimize coupling of
surface vibration to the microphone, the U851R is equipped with self-contained
electronics, eliminating the need for an external power module.
* Designed for surface-mount applications such as high-quality sound
reinforcement, professional recording, television, conferencing and other
demanding sound pickup situations
* PivotPoint™ rotating output connector allows cable to exit from either the
rear or the bottom of the microphone
* Superior off-axis rejection for maximum gain before feedback
* UniGuard™ RFI-shielding technology offers outstanding rejection of radio
frequency interference (RFI)
* Self-contained electronics eliminate need for external power module
* Small-diameter UniPoint capsule near boundary eliminates phase distortion and
delivers clear, high-output performance
* Heavy die-cast case and non-slip silicon foam bottom pads minimize coupling of
surface vibration to the microphone
* Low-profile design with low-reflectance finish for minimum visibility
* Available in two colors: black (U851R) and white (U851RW)
