Hz-20 kHz filter; Input 1 and Master at 5, all other controls full
counterclockwise)
Hum and Noise
Equivalent Input Noise: -125 dBV (150 : source; through
400 Hz–20 kHz filter)
Equivalent Input Hum and Noise: -123 dBV (150 : source;
through 20 Hz - 20 kHz filter)

Polarity
Mic/Line, Send inputs to all outputs are non-inverting; Aux
input to all outputs is inverting
Overload and Shorting Protection
Shorting outputs, even for prolonged periods, causes no
damage. Microphone inputs are not damaged by signals up
to 3 V; Line and Monitor inputs by signals up to 20 V

Service Statement
For additional service or parts information, please contact
the Shure Service Department at 1-800-516-2525. Outside
the United States, please contact your authorized Shure
Service Center.
*For systems requiring other mains connectors, use a power cord with
an IEC 320 type mating connector for connection to the SCM800, and
an appropriate plug on the other end for connection to the mains. The
supplied cord uses Harmonized IEC Cordage with color coding as fol-
lows: Brown = Line, Blue = Neutral, Green/Yellow = Ground.
