Product Overview

The Shure SBC250 is a 2-bay networked charging station for ULX-D system transmitters equipped with the SB900C rechargeable battery, including the Shure ULXD6/C boundary transmitter and Shure ULXD8 gooseneck base transmitter. The Global, No Power Supply SKU is intended for integrators who will supply a regional IEC power cable or use an existing facility power connection, making it appropriate for international deployment and custom rack integration where power is sourced separately. With bi-color LED charging indicators and networked monitoring via Wireless Workbench or SystemOn Audio Asset Management software, the SBC250 gives AV system operators visibility into transmitter battery state from a central control position.

Product Description

In installed AV environments, wireless transmitter battery management is a persistent operational risk: a transmitter that goes flat during a board meeting or worship service cannot be quickly swapped without disrupting the event. The SBC250 addresses this by enabling fast partial charging (15 minutes for 1 hour of use) and monitored full charging (3 hours for a complete charge), with networked status reporting that allows AV system operators to confirm transmitter readiness before an event begins. Transmitters dock directly into the charging bays with the SB900C battery installedno battery removal is requiredminimizing handling steps between events. Firmware and transmitter configuration can be updated remotely while transmitters are docked, eliminating the need to physically access rack-mounted transmitters for software maintenance. The SBC250 can be rack-mounted with the optional URT3 rack tray for clean rack integration in permanent AV installations.

Key Features

• 2-Bay Networked Charging for ULX-D Transmitters Charges up to two ULXD6 or ULXD8 transmitters simultaneously, with the SB900C battery remaining installed in the transmitter during chargingno battery removal required between sessions.
• Fast Partial Charge 15 minutes of docking provides approximately 1 hour of transmitter runtime, enabling quick top-up charging during event intermissions or short breaks between back-to-back meetings.
• Full Charge in 3 Hours Complete SB900C battery charge in approximately 3 hours when transmitters are docked for the full cycle.
• Bi-Color LED Status Indicators Visual charging status LEDs on each bay provide at-a-glance confirmation of transmitter charge state directly from the charging station without requiring a networked display.
• Networked Monitoring via Wireless Workbench and SystemOn When connected to the facility network, battery charge status of each docked transmitter is visible remotely via Shure Wireless Workbench 6 or SystemOn Audio Asset Management software.
• Remote Firmware and Settings Updates Transmitter firmware and configuration settings can be updated while transmitters are docked, eliminating the need for physical access to rack-mounted or hard-to-reach charging stations during maintenance.
• Global SKU, No Power Supply Included Designed for integrators who will supply a regional IEC power cable; appropriate for international deployments and custom rack builds where power is sourced from the facility infrastructure.
• Rack-Mount Compatible Compatible with the optional Shure URT3 rack tray for clean 19-inch rack integration in permanent installed AV systems.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Which transmitters are compatible with the SBC250?
The SBC250 is compatible with Shure ULXD6 and ULXD8 transmitters that use the SB900C rechargeable lithium-ion battery. It is not compatible with standard AA battery configurations or other transmitter lines.

Does the SBC250 come with a power supply?
No. This is the Global SKU, which does not include a power supply or IEC cable. AV integrators are responsible for supplying the appropriate regional power cable or IEC connection. This makes it suitable for international projects and custom rack builds where power is sourced from facility infrastructure.

Can transmitter firmware be updated while docked?
Yes. When connected to a network, transmitter firmware and configuration settings can be updated via Wireless Workbench 6, SystemOn Audio Asset Management software, or compatible third-party room control systems while the transmitters are docked in the SBC250.

What warranty applies to the SBC250?
Shure provides a two-year limited warranty. Contact Creation Networks for integration planning, system design support, and post-purchase technical assistance.
