LAS VEGAS, NV, April 23, 2007 - Satnews Daily - Microwave Radio Communications (MRC) has introduced MRX4000 Plus, a new ENG central receiver based on the original MRX4000 demodulator-decoder platform.
MRX4000 Plus retains all the capabilities the MRX4000 offers, with the addition of a new, highly linear RF and IF system that provides high dynamic range and improved MER performance in a compact, easy to install rack mounted shelf. Other new features include four IF bandpass filter selections as standard equipment; high and low IF outputs for spectrum monitoring; standard RS-232 serial remote control or optional 10/100 baseT control interface; NTSC or PAL options and AGC and Link Quality data outputs
The original MRX4000 integrated demodulator-decoder was developed by MRC to support narrow channel analog and digital operation in the 2 GHz Broadcast Auxiliary Services (BAS) band. The company will continue to offer its CodeRunner 4 central receiver, but with an extended warranty incentive, and packaged with the original MRX4000 decoder-demodulator as a BAS companion.
Tony Finizio, the president of MRC said the MRX4000 Plus, is the natural evolution of a highly successful product, and one that makes good sense for our customers Moving to this new platform gives MRC the ability to support SD and HD decoding in addition to alternate modulation formats in future releases.
