Marshall Electronics introduces its first products for professional broadcast and A/V applications
MUMBAI: Marshall Electronics has announced that its newly formed Wireless Division is developing a number of solutions for professional broadcast, audio, and video applications.
Marshall Electronics’ new Wireless HDMI transmitter/receiver system brings together its high quality audio with its new cutting-edge video technology for remote DSLR monitoring and audio-visual solutions. The system’s range of 300ft. improves the limited HDMI cable distance up to 10 times. The 300ft range does not require a direct line of sight.
The Wireless Monitor System is available with the V-LCD70MDW 7” camera-top field monitor or V-LCD90MDW 9” camera-top field monitor. With each monitor, the user has the choice of two wireless receiver battery mounting plates: the V-ABR when using Anton-Bauer batteries or the V-VMR when using the IDX style V-Mount batteries.
A third receiver option is the VWHR, a standalone receiver that can be used with any monitor and a WHDI transmitter.
The monitors work with two available transmitters. The V-WHT-A stick transmitter plugs directly into the camera and draws power from the camera’s HDMI port. The V-MHT-B belt pack transmitter can use a variety of small DSLR or camcorder batteries.
In addition to wireless monitors, Marshall has released the FR-500WK Wireless Professional Portable Audio System under the MXL brand. It is a belt pack system consisting of a compact, battery-operated transmitter and a receiver with a unique built-in speaker for extra versatility. The receiver is mountable directly onto a DSLR camera.
