Shure also sells the A710-FM flush mount kit, which attaches to the microphone's mounting keyholes like the wall bracket in
step 7 above.
Suspending the Microphone from the Ceiling
To get started, you will need:
2 mounting eyelet screws (4 mm diameter)
2 washers
Braided metal cable or high-strength wire*
Hardware to attach cable to ceiling*
Place the washers over the microphone's mounting holes and attach the eyelet screws to the microphone.
Attach the mounting cables to the eyelets.
Attach the cables to the ceiling using the appropriate hardware.
* Not included
Shure also sells the A710-TB tile bridge, which attaches to the microphone's screw holes like the suspension cable in step 1
above. Use the hardware included with the tile bridge to attach to the microphone.
VESA MIS-B Compatibility
The 4 screw holes (for M4 x 10 mm screws) on the bottom of the microphone are compatible with VESA MISB mounting prod
ucts, such as the Peerless Universal Sound Bar Kit or the Chief Thinstall Center Channel Speaker Adapter.
Covering the Microphone with Fabric
In certain installations, covering the microphone or the mounting hardware with fabric may be desirable. Shure has tested the
acoustic performance of this microphone with some fabrics from Guilford of Maine and Kvadrat.
In our tests, there was little effect on the microphone's acoustic performance if the fabric met one of the following specifica
tions. To cover the microphone, the fabric should meet at least one of these specifications:
Specific airflow resistance of ≤254 Pa*s/m (Pascalsecond per meter)
Any Guilford of Maine fabric with ≥0.95 NRC (noise reduction coefficient) rating
These are examples of fabrics that met our specifications at the time when Shure evaluated fabrics: Guilford of Maine's Bee
Have, and Kvadrat's Ginger, Mi Casa, Casita, and Time.
