2 The W-DMX technology
W-DMX technology is the core of all our products. W-DMX is specifically
engineered by Wireless Solution Sweden AB to provide the same quality,
reliability and performance as in any hardwired DMX data link.
W-DMX gives you even greater freedom to create reliable point-to-point, point-
to-multipoint and even multipoint-to-multipoint installations over large distances
and in any environment.

W-DMX is unique in its use of advanced radio technologies that are also used
in mobile phones and military communication.
Rather than using fixed frequency channels, W-DMX uses Adaptive Frequency
Hopping technology to continually check the radio channels for interferences
and to rapidly move operation to clear radio channels.
The checks are carried out in combination with another advanced technology:
time division multiple access. This technology makes the most efficient use of
every visited frequency channel.
