It is compatible with modern stand threads. The output signal cord is approximately 3 feet long and terminates with a standard male XLR connector.This is an original Western Electric microphone and not the Altec version. There was a contract issue with WE that required them to sell the patent to Altec and allow Altec to basically duplicate the WE microphones for both the 639A and 639B models.Thanks for looking and good luck bidding.Shipping outside the United States requires using the eBay Global Shipping Program rules.
