Overview
The SWIT CREW Wireless Video Receiver is designed for professional broadcasting, cinematic production, and live event coverage. Utilizing KUWI 2.0 Pro RF technology—NOT Wi-Fi—it delivers ultra-stable HD video reception at distances up to 1.2 km (4000 ft) line-of-sight from a compatible transmitter. With 32ms consistent low latency, visually lossless H.265 decoding, and multiple simultaneous output options, the CREW Receiver is optimized for high-end, real-time monitoring workflows.
KUWI 2.0 Wireless Technology
Built around SWIT’s proprietary KUWI 2.0 Pro chip, the CREW Receiver provides interference-resistant RF performance in license-free 5.1–5.9GHz DFS-compliant frequencies. Automatic channel scanning ensures optimal signal stability in crowded environments.
