SONY SMAD-P5 Digital MI Shoe Adapter for UWP-D Series

SONY SMAD-P5 Digital MI Shoe Adapter for UWP-D Series is a compact Multi Interface Shoe adapter made for connecting a compatible URX-P40 wireless receiver directly to supported Sony camcorders and interchangeable-lens cameras. From the supplied source, it allows cable-free audio transfer and supports direct digital audio recording through the MI shoe.

This is useful when the camera setup needs to stay clean. Instead of running an audio cable from the receiver to the camera input, the SMAD-P5 routes the signal through the shoe connection and can also let the receiver draw power from the camera.

Why It Helps

The SMAD-P5 helps keep a camera rig cleaner by removing the need for a separate audio cable between the URX-P40 receiver and a compatible Sony camera. That means fewer loose connections, less cable strain, and a neater setup for handheld or run-and-gun work.

For supported cameras, the digital audio path is the main advantage. Audio can be sent directly through the MI shoe, bypassing A/D and D/A conversion stages for a cleaner recording workflow.

The linked power function is also practical in the field. Receiver power can be switched with the camera or camcorder, helping simplify battery and power management during production.
