Shure Incorporated introduced its near ULX Standard and, ULX Professional UHF Wireless Systems. These systems, designed for both live performance and systems integration applications, feature Shure's proprietary Automatic Frequency Selection circuitry, an innovation which simplifies system set-up by automatically scanning a user's environment for open frequencies.

Both frequency-agile models operate between 554-865 MHz and offer up to 1440 selectable frequencies that are organized into pre-programmed groups. These groups enable a user to quickly set-up and operate up to 20 compatible systems simultaneously (area dependant). ULX receivers also include Predictive Diversity circuitry which virtually eliminates RF drop-out, as well as easy-to-read, multi-function liquid crystal displays for monitoring group/channel selection, battery level, and TV channel.

Well-equipped to satisfy professional needs, ULX Professional systems are able to scan all frequency groups to locate the one with the maximum number of compatible frequencies. Additional ULX Professional System features include: frequency and volume lockouts, advanced front panel controls, indicators for RF signal strength, furnished rack hardware, remote mountable 1/2 wave antennas, and an extruded metal chassis. Along with ULX, a number of optional new wide band accessories are being offered, as well. Among them are: the UA844 Antenna/Power Distribution Amplifier, which enables the use of up to four ULX receivers with just one pair of antennas; the UA830WB Line Amplifier for boosting the RF signal from remote mounted antennas; and the UA870WB Powered Directional Antenna.

ULX Systems are available in over 30 system configurations with a variety of Shure's leading handheld, headworn, instrument, and lavalier microphone options, including the SM58, Beta 58, Beta 87A, Beta 87C, Beta 53, and WL-50.
