Las Vegas, NV, April 1, 2009 – Nucomm, part of The Vitec Group’s RF Extreme business unit, and a leading provider of digital and analog microwave systems for the broadcast industry, common carrier, cable, government, military and international marketplace, is showcasing its 7 Series HD and HD ready products at NAB 2009 (Booth 3707). Nucomm’s entire ENG/OB product line is capable of HD operation using built in encoding/decoding technology. Presenting today’s broadcast arena with the convenience of field upgradeability, all 7 Series products can be delivered with HD capability or delivered as SD and can be easily field upgraded to HD via a software key. Prior to the introduction of the company’s 7 Series, Nucomm’s HD product line consisted of the CamPac 2 HD/SD wireless camera transmitter and Newscaster DR HD/SD diversity receiver that have been well received as the premier wireless camera system in the industry. The 7 Series displaces the SD product line as Nucomm’s standard product.

All 7 Series products still contain the features and capabilities that have made Nucomm products the first choice of broadcasters worldwide, including multiple modulation modes (VSB,COFDM,DVB-S,FM), dual / tri band RF outputs and ease of operation to name a few.

“Nucomm is pleased to be featuring its 7 Series HD line,� says RF Extreme President Stephen Shpock. “Prior to this product line, with the exception of the CamPac 2 and Newscaster DR, Nucomm products were not capable of HD operation unless you used a third-party HD encoder and decoder product. Through our 7 Series, we have been able to offer fully integrated products that can be interchangeably used in both HD and SD formats. This eliminates the need for external accessories that would otherwise be required, presenting simplicity and convenience for today’s broadcaster.�

Among the several products making up the series include Channel Master TX7 Portable Transmitter, the Channel Master RX7 Portable Receiver, the Newscaster VT7 ENG/OB Van Transmitter and the Newscaster CR7 Central Receiver. For more information about Nucomm and its 7 Series, call 908-852-3700.
