Profile:
What an amazing high bandwidth FM system. Many inferior
units in the marketplace can be found costing twice as much or even
more. With its specially engineered matching circuitry and built
in directional antennas, this unit has tested at 15 miles in outdoor
LOS (line-of-sight) conditions with properly oriented transmitter
& receiver. We put it at "5 miles" to be conservative.
TXRX-100W system also has excellent barrier penetration ability
(through 1-6 barriers such as walls and floors) for shorter range
applications.
This item INCLUDES the normally optional 30 ft.
'quick-connect' video + power plug. With this setup, you can power
the transmitter and receiver units from 30 feet away, as well as
run video + power an additional 30' from transmitter.
The matched system features a HIGH RF output power
transmitter for 2.4GHz - and highly sensitive receiver, both with
6dB directional antennas. Transmitter is NOT channel-selectable
but 2 different channels are available (read more below) for multi-link
usage. These devices are TOTALLY directional, which means that LONG
distances in LOS (line-of sight) conditions or even shorter distances
through barrier(s) will REQUIRE that each unit be properly pointed
facing each other, with only a few degrees of variable margin of
'play' to achieve or maintain optimum signal.
These are figured for channels "2" and "3",
which will work in each other's presence if an additional indoor
or outdoor system link is ordered for simultaneous use. If 2 separate
link systems are purchased at once, order will AUTOMATICALLY be
shipped with 2 ALTERNATE channel units (to ensure excellent use
when in relative proximity to each other). If for some reason user
needs 2 or more systems on the SAME frequency/ channel, please simply
contact us.
Neither transmitter nor receiver is designed for
auxiliary attachments such as higher gain antennas, amplifiers,
etc.. Even though this frequency resides outside of the FCC part
15 "ISM" band ('Industrial, Scientific, Medical') used
by consumer-type 2.4 stuff, powerful systems like these may cause
some interference on weaker signal 2.4 devices, include wireless
LAN computer networking, 2.4 gig cordless telephones, alternate
video transmission and other devices.
High-quality FM wireless video is amazing and may
work very well for a given user application. However, it is certainly
not 'magic'. Choosing the best frequency/ RF power and the most
appropriate antenna(s) for the given application will greatly improve
user's odds for desired success. A careful analysis of all known
factors and a preparedness for certain types of potential problems
which can never be fully realized until initial site trial and potential
re-orientation of a system. Please read more on our wireless FAQ
page.
We carry ONLY wireless equipment manufactured with
quality-engineered onboard surface mount board + processor components
(critical to produce a high quality wireless video unit). Too many
in our industry are making false and exaggerated claims about their
inferior products and about wireless video technology in general.
You never have or will find such products or erroneous information
on our site.
Common Applications:
• Fixed location point-to-point links for monitoring
& surveillance equipment over long LOS distances
• General CCTV video and security purposes where installing
hardwired connection is not feasible or possible
Available Options:
Fully regulated #PWR-500R AC/DC transformers
(wall plug-in for constant use) included FREE with each
#TXRX-100W system ordered.
"Optional" rubber boot quick connect plugs
with 30' video + power cables included FREE with each #TXRX-100W system ordered.
Variations / Alternate Equipment to Consider:
We also carry the #TXRX-1WW system (FCC pt. 90 approved)
which features the MAX in consumer-licensed available range. Rated
for SIXTY (60) MILES in LOS conditions!!
Cautions:
This IS a NEMA 64 rated weatherproof outdoor transmitter,
but units must be tightened down properly with rubber gasket rings
in proper position- and not over-tightened as to cause pinching
(which may result in breach of seal integrity).
This device is NOT audio capable.
Because this unit has no built-in 'reverse polarity
protection' circuitry, it MUST be powered PROPERLY and ONLY with
available power accessories to guarantee SAFE
operation. Using improper 'reverse power' (i.e. a power supply with
center pin negative polarity) WILL DESTROY THIS UNIT. Unregulated
transformers marked at "12 volts DC" are more likely producing
18-30 volts, as seen when tested with a simple DC volt meter. While
over-voltage of electronic circuitry may allow operation, but may
also be greatly decreasing device longevity by "over-driving"
and likely overheating that circuitry, which may even result in
immediate damage. Please consult our power FAQ page for more information.
Reception range and quality of wireless performance
is based on a number of factors which can generally be determined
only after actual testing has been made. Please consult our wireless
FAQ page for MUCH more information on this subject.
