Switronix Ships Recon Wireless Transmission System for HD Video

Low-cost, high-efficiency system transmit uncompressed, HD video over 150 feet to any field monitor with a latency of less than 1 millisecond, making it ideal for real-time viewing

Switronix is pleased to announce their new Recon Wireless Transmission system. This low-cost, high-efficient product is able to transmit uncompressed, HD video over 150 feet. The Recon Wireless is available in two forms: RECON-HDMI (HDMI input) and RECON-ULTRA (HDMI/HDSDi input). This product can transmit high-quality, encrypted HD video to any field monitor with a latency of less than 1 millisecond, making it ideal for real-time viewing. The director, producer and even film crew can see exactly what the camera is shooting in real-time. 

The Recon Wireless can be powered in two ways: by battery (V-type or 3-Stud battery) or by DC-input via an XLR-4p connector. It was also designed with a back-up power failure function. If the external power is disconnected, it will automatically switch to a connected battery. Furthermore, in case of interference with another RF system, its 5.1GHz~5.9GHz will automatically adjust frequencies.

Unlike other wireless transmission systems, the Recon Wireless has a built-in HDMI to HD/SDI converter, as well as an external antenna for a more stable connection. It has fully uncompressed 1080 true cinema video with embedded sound and will automatically detect PAL or NTSC.

Switronix is also releasing the Recon Wireless V-Mount Riser (#RECV-RISE) and theRecon Wireless V-Mount Riser for RED (#RECV-RISE-RED). The RECV-RISE is a V-mount to V-mount riser used to elevate and transmit power to either of the V-type Recon Wireless units (#RECV-HDMI or RECV-ULTRA). By elevating the Recon, one reduces the possibility of interference. The RECV-RISE-RED unit will be wired to support RED battery data transmission to the RED ONE/EPIC/SCARLET.

The Recon Wireless retails around $3,000 and can be available to purchase from any Switronix authorized dealer.
