Sony DWT-B03R

Superb audio quality and stable operation in a wide range of environments The third generation of Sony's acclaimed DWX series, this high-performance digital wireless bodypack transmitter is an ideal choice for live sound applications including theater and concerts, as well as studio-based TV production and ENG/EFP.

Light and compact (27% smaller than its DWT-B01N predecessor), the DWT-B03R features a tough magnesium body that's resistant to rain, spray, and sweat.

Sony's advanced digital audio processing, encryption and RF transmission technologies assure secure, stable transmission and reception of very high-quality audio with low latency.

The DWT-B03R is ideal for use in large-scale multi-channel productions, supporting up to 21 simultaneous channels per 8 MHz TV band or up to 16 simultaneous channels per 6 MHz TV band.

The DWT-B03R is compatible with Sony Wireless Studio control software for PC (Ver 5.0 or later), allowing flexible remote operation. Remote control of up to 82 transmitters is possible using the Cross Remote™ function combined with the RMU-01 remote control unit (available separately).

SMALL, LIGHTWEIGHT AND ROBUST MAGNESIUM BODY:

27% smaller than its DWT-B01N predecessor

VERY HIGH QUALITY WIRELESS AUDIO:

Advanced Sony codec design assures superb audio quality, with a high dynamic range of more than 106 dB, plus a wide frequency response of 20 Hz - 22 kHz and excellent transient response.

LOW-LATENCY AUDIO:

Advanced Sony codec design reduces audio latency to as little as 1.2 msec

RAIN, SWEAT, AND SPRAY-PROOF:

Ideal for musicals, film production, or outdoor operation, the DWT-B03R features a tough magnesium body with a moisture-resistant housing gasket and splash-proof connector that resists rain, sweat, and spray.

LONG BATTERY LIFE:

Perform for longer with the high-capacity rechargeable NP-BX1 Li-ion battery (approx. 7 hours). The DWT-B03R is compatible with the optional BC-DWX1 Dual Charger.

148MHZ WIDEBAND:

Contributes to the reduction of equipment and burden of maintenance.

HIGH DENSITY MULTI-CHANNEL OPERATION:

Ideal for large-scale productions, the DWT-B03R supports high-density simultaneous multi-channel operation: 375 kHz spacing accommodates up to 21 channels per 8 MHz TV band or up to 16 simultaneous channels per 6 MHz TV band.

AES 256BIT ENCRYPTION:

For secure encrypted transmission

EASY, VERSATILE REMOTE CONTROL:

The DWT-B03R is compatible with Sony's Wireless Studio control software for PC (Version 5.0 or later). Up to 82 transmitters can be controlled using the Cross Remote™ function and RMU-01 remote control unit (available separately).

SELECTABLE RF OUTPUT POWER:

RF output power level is selectable (2 mW/10 mW/25 mW) to prioritize stable multi-channel or long distance operation.

OLED DISPLAY:

The easy-to-read OLED display gives confirmation of channel number, RF signal status, user name, user group and lock status.

PHASE REVERSE MODE:

It can change the audio phase by the menu.

USER SETTING MEMORY:

Settings can be easily stored to the memory of DWT-B03R.

SETTING LOCK:

Transmitter settings can be locked to prevent accidental operation during performance.

TRANSMITTER/RECEIVER IDENTIFYING FUNCTION:

Paired transmitters/receivers are identified by blinking display.
