Enter the Dragon
The TP Mini 500′ HDMI Wireless Video Transmission System from Shimbol is being billed as very affordable, entry level system or users of mirrorless hybrids and small digital cinema cameras.
The TX has an HDMI input and it features a line-of-sight transmission up to 600′ to the receiver using the free 5 GHz wireless band. There is also a HDMI loop-through output.
The RX features two HDMI outputs for viewing on a monitor or sending the feed to a switcher.
The TP Mini features an aviation aluminum alloy shell, and sandblasted paintwork, inspired by the palaces of ancient China. The RX and TX units weigh 113g / 3.98 oz each.
An OLED display on the side of each unit displays the status of the wireless signal. SHIMBOL claims that the latency is as low as 70ms.
You can power each unit using an L-series battery, or you can utilize a separately available power source using the 5V USB-C input. The antennas are built into the units, so they are compact and easy to install and transport.
There are no fans in the RX or TX so the system is completely silent.
