Shure MX415WRLPDF/N Wired Electret Condenser Microphone

The Shure MX415WRLPDF/N wired electret condenser microphone is a premium surface‑mount gooseneck solution built for boardrooms, conference spaces, and environments where aesthetics matter as much as sound quality. Combining a refined silhouette with robust audio performance, this microphone offers flexible capsule options, RF resistance, and a conspicuous yet elegant LED status display to keep participants and technicians in sync. With its 38.1 cm gooseneck, the MX415WRLPDF/N can be positioned precisely for natural vocal pickup while staying discreet in the room’s design. Whether you’re outfitting a high‑end executive conference table or a multi‑purpose meeting space, this mic delivers clear, intelligible voice reproduction and reliable operation in demanding environments.

• The 38.1 cm (15 in) gooseneck provides flexible, comfortable positioning for speakers of all heights while maintaining a low profile on the table or podium. This length helps capture focused voice pickup from the primary speaker and reduces the chance of picking up unintended ambient noise, creating a cleaner sound in rooms of varying sizes. The gooseneck’s shape and stiffness are designed to hold position through long meetings, allowing for consistent performance session after session.
• Bi-Color LED or light ring status display offers at‑a‑glance feedback on mic status, enabling smooth cueing and quick identification of active or muted states. In busy conference environments with multiple devices, this visual indicator helps participants follow who is speaking and assists technicians in monitoring system status without invasive indicators. The bright, hard‑to‑miss lighting is engineered for legibility even in rooms with moderate lighting or projection displays.
• Surface‑mount design integrates seamlessly into contemporary conference furniture, delivering a clean, unobtrusive look while delivering professional audio. This slim, built‑in appearance is ideal for boardrooms and spaces where aesthetics are prioritized alongside audio performance. The MX415WRLPDF/N is designed to blend with modern deployment schemes, enabling an understated microphone that remains highly functional without dominating the room’s visual focus.
• RF filtering with CommShield technology minimizes interference from nearby wireless devices, ensuring clearer audio and reducing the risk of garbled speech caused by RF noise. In environments with dense wireless traffic—from wireless presentation devices to mobile devices—CommShield helps preserve natural voice fidelity and steadier signal integrity, delivering more reliable conference calls and recordings.
• Capsule options include None, Cardioid, and Supercardioid, allowing you to tailor directivity to room acoustics and seating arrangements. The choice of capsule pattern enables precise control over what the mic picks up, helping to minimize off‑axis noise and feedback while maximizing intelligibility for the principal speakers and participants. This flexibility makes the MX415WRLPDF/N suitable for a wide range of room shapes and seating configurations, from U‑shaped layouts to traditional boardroom setups.

How to install MX415WRLPDF/N

• Plan the mic position to align with the primary speaking area, ensuring the gooseneck length provides comfortable reach without obstructing sightlines or interfering with participant interactions. Consider seating arrangement and the typical distance speakers maintain from the microphone to optimize directivity and intelligibility.
• Mount the microphone on a suitable surface using the included hardware, placing it at an angle and height that maximize voice pickup while preserving the room’s visual design. Verify that the mic sits securely and that the gooseneck can be positioned without causing strain or movement during use.
• Connect the mic to your AV or conference system according to the room’s signal path. Use the recommended connectors and cabling for your setup and ensure any required power or bias is supplied by the connected equipment. Proper connection helps maintain optimal audio performance and reduces the chance of noise or dropouts.
• Select the capsule pattern that best fits the room’s acoustics and seating. Cardioid and Supercardioid patterns provide tighter pickup and better rejection of ambient noise, while the None option may be used in controlled environments or when the room’s acoustics are managed by other systems. Adjust the pattern as needed to achieve clear, even voice reproduction for all participants.
• Verify LED status indicators and perform a sound check. Listen for consistent level across participants, adjust mic distance and angle, and ensure the mic’s status display accurately reflects its current mode. This step helps ensure reliable operation during meetings and reduces the need for on‑the‑fly adjustments during sessions.
