2. Use low-loss coaxial cable (sold separately) to connect to the receiver (or antenna distribution system), as
shown.
Note: The UAPF should be placed before any inline amplifier, such as the Shure UA830.
Cable Maintenance
To maintain top performance for UA825, UA850 or UA8100 antenna cables:
•Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the cables.
•Do not deform cables with makeshift clamps, such as bending a nail over the cable.
•Do not use in permanent outdoor installations.
•Do not expose to extreme moisture.

Caution: Use only Shure antenna accessories to ensure the best operation. Do not use splitters, combiners, or
antennas that provide a DC ground. If necessary, use a BNC DC block device, such as the JFW Industries Model
50DB-002.

Antenna Placement
Use the following guidelines when mounting antennas:
•Antennas and receivers must be from the same band.
•Mount antennas at least one wavelength (two feet) apart.
•Position antennas so there is nothing obstructing a line of sight to the transmitter (including the audience).
•Keep antennas away from large metal objects.
Important: Important: Always perform a “walk around” test to verify coverage before using a wireless system dur
ing a speech or performance. Experiment with antenna placement to find the optimum location. If necessary, mark
“trouble spots” and ask presenters or performers to avoid those areas.
