Description
The Shure AD8C Axient Digital PSM 8-Port Combiner is designed to streamline complex RF environments by consolidating multiple transmitter outputs into a single antenna system. Built for use with Axient Digital PSM ADTQ and ADTD transmitters, this high-performance combiner reduces intermodulation distortion while maximizing spectrum efficiency in demanding live sound and broadcast applications.
With support for both 8:1 and dual 4:1 combining modes, the AD8C provides flexible deployment options. In 8:1 mode, it enables up to 32 WMAS channels through a single antenna, while 2x 4:1 mode supports spatial diversity with two antennas for enhanced coverage and reliability. Automatic Transmitter Compensation ensures optimal signal integrity by offsetting passive RF loss, maintaining consistent output performance across all connected transmitters.
The integrated DC powering module adds redundancy to mission-critical setups, ensuring continuous operation even in power-sensitive environments. An onboard Ethernet switch allows for seamless remote management and firmware updates, making the AD8C a scalable and future-ready solution for professional wireless monitoring systems.
