The DR-200 Series brings a new level of digital performance and reliability to digital video and audio transmission. Available in P, L, S, and C–Bands, the DR -200 provides high quality demodulation of COFDM digital video and audio signals. The integral LNA and high-selectivity IF filters guarantee reliable receiver operation in harsh RF environments. An optional security feature safeguards against unauthorized intercept.

Packaged in a compact and rugged housing, the construction lends the DR-200 to applications where quick set-up with a minimum of external equipment is desired. The receiver is ideal for integration into video transmission systems using a host computer for remote control. Applications include UAV and UGV ground stations as well as central receive sites. Front panel connectors include two video outputs, audio outputs, and data channel output. The data channel is typically used for the reception of remote sensor and GPS information in conjunction with the PMR DT-100 or DT-200 digital transmitter. Diversity is available as an option to meet specific requirements.

The DR-200 digital receiver is well suited for video transmission applications in surveillance, law enforcement, UAV, RPV, UGV and MOUT, as well as airborne data/telemetry.
