AMP’s VRD1 Series 13.5 cubic inch diversity video receivers offer high quality diversity reception with many advanced features, including the smallest and lightest packaging, the highest power efficiency, the lowest noise figure, and video inversion. All receivers utilize a compact, robust machined chassis and high quality connectors designed to withstand harsh environments.

VRD1 Series receivers feature a proprietary voting circuit that ensures reception of the strongest signal at all times. Innovative circuit designs are utilized to reduce power consumption for significantly longer battery life and to reduce noise figure for substantially more range and better video quality.

Receiver carrier frequency may be locally selected with chassis-mounted BCD rotary switches or remotely selected with serial interface. A slide switch allows selection between standard (positive) and inverted (negative) video. Received signal strength is indicated two ways – dual chassis-mounted LCD analog bar meters and output pins on the I/O connector.

If your application requires video and audio reception, AMP’s receivers are optionally configured with up to two low-drift audio subcarriers. Dual buffered audio outputs are provided for simultaneous monitoring and recording.

VRD1 Series receivers are ideal for law enforcement, surveillance, and other applications requiring high quality diversity video reception in a compact, rugged package.
