Shure UA825 BNC-BNC RG8X U Extension Cable 25 Feet

The Shure UA825 is a 25-foot coaxial extension cable designed specifically for extending the distance between Shure UHF wireless receivers and their remote antennas. Built with RG8X/U coaxial cable and terminated with BNC male connectors on both ends, it provides a reliable, low-loss signal path that maintains the performance integrity of professional wireless microphone systems. The RG8X cable type offers a favorable compromise between the low attenuation of heavier RG8 cable and the flexibility of thinner RG58, making it practical to route through venues while keeping signal degradation to a minimum.

In professional audio applications, antenna placement is critical for reliable wireless microphone and in-ear monitor performance. The UA825 allows engineers to position antennas in optimal locations — elevated, in line of sight with transmitters, or away from sources of RF interference — while keeping the receiver rack in a convenient backstage or front-of-house location. The secure BNC twist-lock connectors prevent accidental disconnection during performances, and the Shure-manufactured construction ensures proper 50-ohm impedance matching with Shure's UHF wireless ecosystem. For installations requiring runs longer than 25 feet, Shure offers the UA850 (50-foot) variant, or users can incorporate antenna distribution amplifiers to compensate for additional cable loss.
