Anyone saw the Meridian wireless system from BOXX TV at IBC? How does it compare to the Idx Camwave?

I saw it very quickly, and so far I could see it seemed ok and good quality, for what you could expect from wireless, but had not enough time to spend over there and walked away

Thanks for your reply!

Just received a quote from Boxx.. ~10000$ for TX and RX..... I think I will go with the IDX Camwave.

Hello,

This is Scott from BOXX.TV.
Just thought it would be good to update everyone with a few new features.

- Our new firmware will transport time code via the SDI/HDSDI as well as record trigger start/stop. This will be compatible with Qtake and is due for release Feb 2010. Boxx Meridian is the only HD microwave system to transmit time code.

-Transmitters now have removable antennas and can be bent through 90 degrees for low clearance shooting -We have a high gain receiver which has a range of around 150m -Each transmitter will broadcast to an unlimited number of receivers and each receiver can switch between transmitters.

- Up to 11 channels available for more reliable transmission

- Headphone audio monitoring on hand-held receiver

- Transmitters and receivers can use any format including HD-SDI, SDI, component, composite.

- All receivers now simultaneously down converted any HD signal to composite. While the director gets an HD picture, the composite out can be plugged into an analog transmitter to rebroadcast the signal around the set. As the analog transmitter is now not moving in space, the quality is very good and zero delay.

- Receivers and transmitters are available with v-Lok, Anton Bauer or Velcro mounts
