The MXWAPT is a 8-channel wireless access point compatible with Microflex Wireless microphone systems. It uses automated frequency coordination to assign clean frequencies to wireless microphones and manages two-way wireless transmission of encrypted audio and control signals. Power to the unit (via PoE) and Dante digital networked audio are both supplied over a single Ethernet cable to simplify installation, and the supplied mounting plate and paintable cover allow discreet placement in boardrooms and conference rooms where low visibility is preferred.

More about Shure's Microflex Series
Communicate with confidence with the Microflex® complete digital conference system from Shure. Scalable at 2, 4, or 8 channel groupings (a maximum of 40, dependent on the region), this versatile system’s components include transceivers, an access point transceiver, networked charging stations, and an audio network interface—all with automatic frequency management and using shielded Cat 5e or Cat 6 cables for ease of installation and customization. This system is integrated with AES-256 encryption to keep your meetings secure.
From handheld, gooseneck, boundary, to bodypack (compatible for head-worn or lavalier), the wide variety of transmitters in the Microflex Wireless series allow you to choose what best fits your collaborative style. Each option boasts Commshield technology for RF noise immunity—so you can hear the person speaking into their mic with crystal clarity without distractions. Powered by rechargeable lithium-ion batteries, Microflex transmitters enable you to maintain your meeting’s momentum for up to 8 hours of continuous runtime.
The MXW Access Point Transceiver is available in 2, 4, or 8 channel models, is connected to a single ethernet cable (system requires Power over Ethernet) and includes a mounting bracket and paintable cover for personalized installation. The MXW Networked Charging Station links transmitters to the wireless system; there must be one charging station for each transmitter (except for gooseneck transmitters, which require 2 stations each). The MXW Audio Network Interface is available in 4- or 8-channel options; this item converts networked digital audio to the analog outputs.
No matter the size of your space, Microflex Wireless is the ideal conference system for any meeting environment, including flexible/divisible meeting rooms, boardrooms, courtrooms, lecture halls, conferences—even remote management and campus-wide installations. Portable, flush-mount and modular units ensure maximum coverage while freeing you up from the worry of wired components.
