Wireless (RF) Cameras

Gravity Media’s Wireless (RF) Cameras

Delivering bespoke remote solutions, Gravity Media’s Wireless (RF) Cameras make it easy for broadcasters, production companies and live-event organisers to capture and transmit high-quality footage to a global audience from any location.

Whether you’re filming a major indoor sporting event or a live outdoor music festival, our Wireless (RF) Cameras provide all the functionality you need to deliver an immersive experience to at-home or on-the-go viewers.

Our wireless RF camera systems typically comprise four separate sub-systems: transmitter, receiver, camera control and RF over Fibre. Our experienced engineers will assist you in selecting equipment that’s designed to meet your needs and deliver the best performance. 

Combined with Gravity Media’s comprehensive range of speciality cameras ensures your Wireless (RF) Camera system can capture a wide range of footage from stunning locations. 

Want to film live sports action from on the pitch or court? No problem! Need to capture aerial footage of live-action racing? We can do it! From live helicopter transmissions to motorcycle and tower transmissions, our leading Wireless (RF) Cameras allow you to capture the best footage from the best locations.

Control

Combining decades of experience with professional expertise and advanced technology, we ensure optimal control of video capture and transmission to facilitate even the most demanding productions. From just a single-camera system with a single-camera remote control panel to large multi-camera deployments with many remote control panels, we have the equipment available to handle these scenarios. 

How It Works

Gravity Media’s Wireless (RF) Camera systems are based on four central pieces of equipment:

Transmitter

We have the latest-generation transmitters from a number of leading manufacturers offering resolutions up to 4k / UHD and compatibility with High Dynamic Range (HDR) formats. The latest “HEVC” video encoding provides exceptional picture quality while consuming only a modest amount of the Radio Frequency spectrum. Flexible signal hand-off arrangements are available supporting Quad 3G SDI, HD/3/6/12G SDI, HDMI, Fibre Optic, and IP SMPTE 2022-6 / SMPTE 2110 interfaces.

Receiver

Latest-generation receivers offer automatic and seamless diversity switching between a number of receive antennas, intuitive user interfaces and end-to-end latency as low as a single frame.

Camera Control

We offer Wireless (RF) Camera control systems from FocalPoint, VideoSys and Cyanview enabling wireless RF cameras to be reliably racked from remote locations. Remote control of lens functions and motorised Pan / Tilt heads is also possible for wireless, unmanned camera positions. We usually use licensable UHF frequencies for camera control since this pretty much guarantees a reliable, interference-free operation. However, we can also offer WiFi and Cell-phone-based camera control solutions.

RF over Fibre

RF over Fibre (or RFoF) combines radio frequency with fibre optics to deliver a wireless camera system that can operate over a wide geographic area for larger venues. Facilitating greater distances between a transmitter and receiver and reducing the need for amplification, RF over Fibre elevates the capabilities of a Wireless RF Camera system and enhances the flexibility of the system.  

Custom Wireless RF Camera Systems

Wireless RF Camera systems provide ultimate performance for live broadcasts, particularly when filming in remote locations or at fast-paced events. With bespoke solutions, Gravity Media’s Wireless RF Camera systems transform challenging projects into seamless video productions.
