3km Long Range Wireless Video
Panel Receiver, Professional RF, NOT WIFI
The new generation CREW wireless system, upgraded with twice longer transmission distance, enhanced reliable image quality, and uncompromised multicast capabilities. The CREW system continues to deliver the same rock-solid transmission stability as FLOW series, for professional broadcast and film productions.
UWI 2.0 Professional Chip, Stable As Always
The New Generation KUWI2.0 professional chip for wireless video, 5.1-5.9GHz License-Free, inherits the stability advantages of SWIT wireless products, ensures the stable transmission in the most complex environment.
Professional Video Production Applications
The CREW series Wireless System is engineered for exceptional stability and reliability, the solution for professional video productions like sports broadcast productions, cinematic filmset shooting and high end event productions. CREW ensures seamless, real-time transmission with minimal latency and zero signal dropouts, providing production teams with the confidence and flexibility needed for flawless on-set and on-location workflows.
Reliable 3km Long Distance, Stronger Wall-cross
CREW MAX provides with a particular panel receiver with high gain directional antenna inside, enabling transmission range of up to 3km (10,000 ft) in line of sight, for large-scale video productions. Even in environments with heavy obstructions, CREW MAX can ensure stronger wall-cross performance.
32ms Consistent Low Latency
The ultra-low latency has exceeded the limits of human visual perception, achieving visually lossless performance, suitable for the professional wireless follow focus, the most demanding application in terms of latency.
The latency is consistent, never changed regardless of the environment interference. In multi-camera productions, using CREW would ensure the strict synchronization among the multiple wireless channels.
Uncompromised 1T to 4R Multi-Cast
The CREW supports 1 Transmitter to up to 4 Receivers Stable Multi-Cast Transmission, with no compromise on Distance, Latency or Video quality for film crew application. All the CREW family Tx and Rx are fully cross-compatible for multicast.
Tx: 3G-SDI & HDMI
The Transmitter supports
3G-SDI in×1, loop out×1, HDMI in×1 HD video inputs, Compatible with a wide range of ENG and CINE cameras.
Panel Rx: 3G-SDI, HDMI and UVC out
The Panel Receiver provides:
3G-SDI out×2, HDMI out×1 and USB-C Video Capture out×1
* Whether Tx input SDI or HDMI, all Rx interfaces can output simultaneously.
USB-C Video Capture
For PC/Mac Livestreaming
The CREW MAX wireless receiver provides USB-C port video capture output, and can be connect to a computer for ivestreaming productions, 1080P50/60 High Quality Video Capture, Driver-free for both PC and Mac.
Visually Lossless High Video Quality
The CREW series wireless transmission adopts H.265 High Quality Encoding, bit rate up to 26.8 Mbps, visually lossless compared to cable video.
Display and Configuration
High Bright Color OLED Screen
Both the Tx and Panel Rx Wireless is equipped with a high bright 450nits OLED screen that remains clearly visible even in direct sunlight. It displays essential transmission status information such as video format, frequency channel, signal strength, etc. A user-friendly joystick allows for easy configuration of all functions, including Tx/Rx pairing, channel switching, fan on/off control, firmware upgrades, and more.
MetaData Transmit
CREW supports to wirelessly Transmit SDI embedded MetaData from cine cameras, for DIT livegrading, record and manage the camera information.
TimeCode Trigger Transmit
The CREW wireless system also supports the transmission of SDI embedded timecode and Start/Stop trigger from the camera.
Dual Encryption protection
The CREW wireless system has Dual Encryption protection:
1. Use exclusive KUWI chip of proprietary RF;
2. Adopt AES-256 high level encryption
to ensure that the video signals captured on movie sets are not leaked to third parties.
Multiple Power Supply
The Tx can be powered up by NP-F battery, D-tap to 2-pin LEMO cable, and USB-C port;
The Panel Rx can be powered by a V-mount battery, D-tap to 2-pin LEMO cable, and USB-C port as well.
