Sony URX-S03D Dual-Channel Slot-In UWP-D Wireless Receiver
Dual-Channel UHF Wireless Reception for Sony Camcorders
The Sony URX-S03D is a slot-in wireless receiver designed for direct integration with Sony XDCAM and HDCAM camcorders. It offers a wide choice of channels and supports two independent audio channels, enabling simultaneous reception of signals from two transmitters.
True Diversity and Digital Audio Processing
This receiver employs a true diversity system, utilizing two antennas and separate RF circuits per channel. This design helps minimize signal dropouts and maintains stable audio reception, even in environments with challenging radio frequency conditions. Sony's digital audio processing further enhances transient response and reduces artifacts compared to traditional analog companding systems.
Seamless Camcorder Integration
With a slot-in form factor and D-sub 15-pin connector, the URX-S03D wireless receiver connects directly to compatible Sony camcorders. This configuration supports a two-channel digital audio link to XDCAM models or a single analog channel to HDCAM models, providing synchronized sound with minimal audio delay (approximately 0.375 milliseconds).
Automatic Channel Selection and Wide Frequency Coverage
The receiver features an automatic channel setting mode, which scans and assigns frequencies for both channels, streamlining the setup process. It offers a wide selection of RF channels across various frequency bands (specific bands vary by model/region), providing users flexibility to work in diverse frequency environments.
Build and Operational Design
The device features a sturdy, dust-proof body intended for durability and field use, meeting JIS II drip-resistance standards when mounted on a camcorder with antennas attached. Dimensions are approximately 3.5 x 4.6 x 1.25 inches (88 x 116.2 x 31.2 mm), and the unit weighs approximately 303 grams with antennas attached.
Audio Performance
- Frequency response: 40 Hz to 18 kHz
- Signal-to-noise ratio: 60 dB or more (A-weighted)
- Total harmonic distortion: 0.9% or less (with modulating frequency of 1 kHz and frequency deviation of ±5.0 kHz)
FAQ
-
Which camcorders are compatible with the URX-S03D?
The receiver is designed for direct integration with select Sony XDCAM and HDCAM models equipped with slot-in receiver capability and a D-sub 15-pin interface. -
Can this receiver operate with other Sony UWP-D series transmitters?
Yes, it is compatible with UWP-D series transmitters operating within the supported frequency range when the appropriate compander mode is selected on the receiver. -
Does the receiver support true diversity on both channels?
Yes, each channel employs its own true diversity system using separate antennas and RF circuits. -
What is the main difference between this model and the URX-P03D?
The URX-S03D offers a slot-in form factor for direct camcorder integration, while the URX-P03D needs to connect via XLR cable or to the hotshoe via an adapter.
