AMP’s VRD2 Series 7.4 cubic inch diversity video receivers offer high quality diversity reception with many advanced features including miniature packaging, low power consumption, low noise figure, and video inversion.  All receivers utilize a robust machined aluminum chassis and high quality connectors designed to withstand harsh environments.

VRD2 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 selected locally with BCD rotary switches, remotely with RS232 interface, and locally/remotely with a programmable binary switch.  A slide switch allows selection between standard (positive) and inverted (negative) video.  Received signal strength is indicated with dual local displays (LCD meter or LED bar) and an output pin on the I/O connector.

If your application requires video and data reception, VRD2 receivers are optionally configured with a RS232 or TTL data subcarrier with up to 48 kbps data rate and dual outputs for driving auxiliary devices.

VRD2 Series receivers are ideal for UAV, UGV, Military, and other applications requiring high quality diversity video reception in a compact, rugged package.
