Sony Wireless Mic for Video Applications
April 22, 2005
Park Ridge, NJ - Sony introduced its new UWP-C3 wireless microphone package, with a plug-on transmitter that converts a wired microphone into a wireless mic via XLR connections.
The UWP-C3 achieves stable transmission and reception by incorporating a UHF PLL (Phase Locked Loop) frequency synthesized system and dual-antenna inputs/reception circuits that automatically select the strongest available RF signal for output.
The synthesized wireless microphone system also features:
Simultaneous Multi-channel Operation:
Allows simultaneous operation of up to 16 wireless microphones. Optimum combinations of interference-free frequencies are stored in the tuner;
Backlit LCD:
Provides extensive information including operating channel number and MHz frequency, attenuator level, audio-input status, RF-output status, transmitter-battery status and accumulated operating time. Two AA-size batteries provide approximately six hours of continuous operation;
Portable Tuner:
Features angle-adjustable antennas to help eliminate signal dropout, also providing mounting position flexibility for camcorder use; and
Pre-Programmed Operating Frequencies:
Incorporates pre-programmed frequencies that meet the wireless-communication regulations of each country.
The UWP C3 Series UHF wireless microphone system utilizes three core technologies to supply stable transmission and reception:
PLL Synthesized System:
A stable carrier signal helps prevent interference with other frequency channels via a preferred channel selection option;
Space Diversity Reception System:
Achieves a stable reception through dual-antenna inputs/reception circuits and automatically selects the best RF signal for quality performance; and
Tone Squelch Circuitry:
Helps prevent potential interference from transmissions of other wireless devices. The UWP-C3 Series outputs the audio signal only when a 32-kHz pilot-tone is recognized.
The UWP-C3 wireless microphone system is to be available in September at a suggested list price of $699.95 for each system configuration.
