MC51B description:

MC51 (Unidirectional/Cardioid Black): Intended for hardwired applications. WL51 microphone supplied with an in-line preamplifier with a three-pin male XLR audio connector.

The Shure MC51 (Unidirectional): is a subminiature, electret condenser lavalier microphone. It provides uncompromised sound quality and high reliability with minimal visibility in sound reinforcement applications such as television broadcasting and stage performances. Despite its small size, the microphone's condenser element provides full, clear and natural reproduction of speech. Each microphone is supplied with two foam windscreens to minimize wind noise. The supplied mounting accessories consist of a lapel clip, a tie clip, a pin mount, and a magnet mount, giving the user a wide variety of options for placement.
