Shure MXWANI8

Overview

The Shure MXWANI8 is an eight-channel audio network interface designed to seamlessly integrate Microflex Wireless microphone signals into Dante networks while providing direct analog outputs for legacy audio equipment. It serves as the central hub in conference rooms, classrooms, and collaboration spaces, routing wireless audio to digital mixers, video conferencing codecs, or analog loudspeaker processors. With 24-bit, 48 kHz conversion and a dynamic range of 113 dB, it ensures clear and natural sound for speech, music, and program material.

Key features

• Eight balanced, line-level analog outputs that deliver clean audio to power amplifiers, recorders, and outboard processors without added noise
• Integrated four-port gigabit Ethernet switch simplifies network wiring by allowing multiple Dante devices to connect at a single location
• Power over Ethernet (PoE) on Port 1 supports devices like the MXWAPT access point transceiver without needing separate power supplies
• Low latency with analog to Dante delay typically around 0.21 milliseconds, maintaining natural timing for live conversations and presentations
• Front panel headphone jack enables technicians to monitor and verify audio signals in real time before transmission
• Flexible configuration and routing through the Microflex Wireless Control software on Mac or PC, allowing detailed channel naming and gain adjustments

Connectivity and compatibility

The MXWANI8 connects effortlessly to Dante-enabled digital mixers, video conferencing codecs, and analog loudspeaker processors, making it a versatile choice for integrating wireless microphone audio into various professional audio setups. The built-in gigabit Ethernet switch reduces cable clutter by supporting multiple Dante devices at one network point, while PoE on the primary port powers compatible access points directly.

Performance and reliability

Designed for environments where audio clarity and timing are critical, this interface maintains a high dynamic range and low latency to preserve the natural flow of speech and music. The balanced analog outputs minimize noise, ensuring clean signal transmission to downstream equipment. Real-time headphone monitoring on the front panel helps technicians quickly troubleshoot and confirm audio quality during live events.

Ideal uses and environments

This interface is well suited to boardrooms, lecture halls, courtrooms, and any collaboration space that depends on reliable, networked audio. It supports setups where wireless microphones need to be integrated into both modern Dante networks and legacy analog systems, making it a strong choice for institutions upgrading their audio infrastructure without replacing all existing equipment.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
