Mini-Tx UHD | Product Manual

Introduction

The award winning Mini-TX UHD is the world's smallest ultra-low latency UHD wireless video transmitter on the

market, measuring just 85mm long by 56mm wide and 28mm deep. It can transmit in two entirely different

frequency bands via its software-defined radio, offering complete on-site spectrum flexibility without the need for

changeable radio modules. But, even with its compact size, the Mini-Tx UHD includes all the features expected

from a traditional wireless video transmitter, and more, with pre-distortion, GPS, Wi-Fi, and a 3-axis accelerometer

as standard and a dual UHF receiver to add robustness and flexibility to the camera control.

The Mini-Tx UHD also includes changeable connector panels for different applications, like a single UHD/HD video

input, Quad HD/Single UHD inputs or Quad HD with power and control over SDI. Additional features available with

the Mini-Tx UHD include video formats up to 2160p59; HEVC and AVC video encoding at 8/10-bit 4:2:2/4:2:0; up

to 32 Mbps video bitrate per pedestal; four channels of embedded SDI audio; two channels of analogue MIC/Line

selectable audio with MIC phantom power; MPEG1L2 audio encoding; support for HDR; and Tx frequency options

from 1.4 to 7.5 GHz. The transmitter also allows power and BSI data to be transmitted over SDI (HD only).
