Introduction
The SOLO4 Bodywire Transmitter is a COFDM digital video transmitter,
designed specifically for covert video installations and body worn
applications.
The small size and low power consumption of the SOLO4 Bodywire
make it the product of choice for covert video hides, or applications
requiring long term battery power deployments, small unmanned aerial
vehicles, and body worn or body wire use.
The SOLO4 Bodywire transmitter employs MPEG2 (MPEG4 is also
available) encoding for excellent image quality retention. Equipped with
integral COFDM modulation, the SOLO4 transmitter is ideal for
establishing rugged wireless video links in all environments including
mobile and urban environments. Offering several user selectable
modes that trade off image quality against range, the SOLO4 transmitter
is ideal for all mission types. The SOLO4 Bodywire includes RF up-
conversion and PA circuitry to make a complete single board
transmitter. SOLO4 Bodywire is supplied in a simple light weight case
with an attached break out cable.
Security is ensured with optional in AES128/256 Encryption.
The SOLO4 Bodywire transmitter will transmit images in a non line of
sight environment up to 750m depending on mode and frequency;
further range can be achieved with the booster PA.
IMPORTANT NOTE
The SOLO4 and SOLO2 product range has been specifically designed for government security and
law enforcement users, the equipment will tune across frequencies that are only available to licensed
government users. Non-government users should employ the equipment restricted to the license
exempt bands only typically 1.389 to 1.399GHz, 2.400 to 2.483GHz and 5.725 to 5.875GHz, or in
bands specified by the appropriate authorities.
