· Have one receiver or more that:
· Accepts the wireless video signal from the transmitter
· Converts the wireless signal back to uncompressed video to monitoring devices
· Transmits/sends the uncompressed video signal out over wired connections (usually connects with HDMI and/or SDI cable(s))
· Can be powered in multiple ways
· Transmit embedded audio
They sometimes…
· Transmit embedded ancillary data (timecode, record triggers, etc.)
