Overview
The PTX-PRO is the ideal solution for portable, mobile, or airborne applications. The PTX-PRO Transmitter Unit is a versatile portable transmitter featuring user selectable choices of FM Modulation and COFDM Modulation with SD/HD MPEG Encoding. Built in universal AC and DC power supplies provide full flexibility in choosing power sources.
The PTX-PRO accepts SDI or HD-SDI, ASI, or video analog inputs. The PTX-PRO can also accept a 70 MHz IF signal from an external source such as the SCM4000 Single Carrier Modem. The integrated MPEG-2 Encoder can support both SD and HD.
The PTX-PRO is controlled using a single front panel combination push button rotary switch. Operating parameters can be easily read from the front panel display.
From a PC or laptop, use the PTX-PRO Configurator Software to create, modify, and store configuration "presets" to be instantaneously recalled using the transmitter's front panel switch. The PTX-PRO Configurator stores multiple sets of presets.
The PTX-PRO uses a standard Type "N" RF connector providing for cabled or direct mounted antennas. The optional Twist Lock Adapter mounts over the RF connector to let you easily install or remove a variety of MRC's Parabolic or MegaHorn antennas, eliminating the need for coaxial interconnecting cables.
For high power applications, the PTX 2 GHz High Power Unit (HPU) can be mounted with the PTX-PRO, giving you 12 watts analog, 4 watts digital power.
