The Sony DWRS03DSKIT with DWR-S03D Receiver & Adaptercombines two wideband receivers, both with AES3 and analog outputs, into a compact slot-in chassis. It is designed to mount into Sony digital slot-in compatible camcorders, UniSlot camcorders, and SuperSlot-enabled devices using either the DWA-SLAS1 or DWA-SLAU1 adapters (both available separately). Bag operation is also possible with the DWA-F01D adapter (available separately).

The DWR-S03D utilizes Sony's third-generation DWX digital technology to deliver superb audio quality with low latency, high wireless reliability (with double tuner/antenna diversity per channel), and secure AES 256-bit encryption. Fast to set up and easy to operate, it is well suited for professionals working on location in ENG/EFP, broadcast, and film applications.

The wide 140 MHz bandwidth and high-density multichannel operation combine to greatly increase the probability of finding unoccupied frequencies in congested metropolitan areas, ideal for large-scale productions.

The DWR-S03D comes with a host of smart features designed to get you shooting in no time. They include automatic two-channel scan and transmitter sync for quick frequency setting, pre-programmed channel plans to ensure frequency compatibility, and a user memory function to instantly store and recall user menu choices.

A quick-response OLED display clearly shows operational information in real time. When used with Sony XDCAM camcorders, transmitter settings can be wirelessly remote-controlled from the camcorder and wireless audio status can be monitored on the camcorder's viewfinder.

The DWR-S03D is compatible with the DWT-B30, DWT-B03R, and DWT-B01N bodypack transmitters, the DWN-02N handheld transmitter, and the DWT-P01N plug-on transmitter. It is also backward compatible with all DWX 1st and 2nd generation transmitters.

Get the Most from your DWX System with Sony XDCAM Camcorders

Advanced integration functions are available when the DWR-S03D is combined with an XDCAM professional camcorder, using the additional DWA-01D adapter. This also allows four-channel wireless mic operation using two receivers.

• The camcorder synchronizes audio latency inherent in digital transmission with video recording latency.
• Wireless audio status can be monitored on the camcorder’s LCD or viewfinder.
• Transmitter parameters can be controlled remotely from the camcorder via proprietary Cross Remote technology.
• The camcorder’s assignable switch can remotely control the transmitter power save.
• Transmission power-save mode changes automatically to Active or Sleep by switching camcorder’s main power on or off.

Professional Sound

• The DWX system delivers pristine 24-bit digital audio with a wide dynamic range of more than 106 dB, extended frequency response of 20 Hz to 22 kHz, and sharp transient response.

Four Codec Modes for a Wide Range of Applications

• Mode 1: Compatible with first generation DWX-series devices.
• Mode 2: Prioritizes short latency times while maintaining transmission stability and high audio quality.
• Mode 3: Additional signal processing suppresses noise caused by unexpected pulse interference.
• Mode 4: Prioritizes audio quality while maintaining transmission stability and low delay time.

Low Latency

• Ideal for live applications, the system achieves an extremely low audio latency time of 1.2 ms, with a 96 kHz sampling rate (codec Mode 2, with DWT-B03R or DWT-B30 transmitters).

Cross Remote Function

• Remotely monitor and control your transmitters through Zigbee communications including mic gain, RF power output, low-pass cut-off frequency, and transmitter Sleep Mode.
• Frequency scan and transmitter sync of both channels with one command.
• Remote control and automatic frequency change of the transmitter and the receiver.

• True Diversity Reception: The receiver achieves highly stable signal reception by using true dual-tuner/antenna reception circuits with comparator circuit.
• X-Dimension Diversity: Ensures transmission reliability by combining multiple dimensions of diversity with Sony’s digital technology and a highly accurate calculation algorithm.
• High Density 375-kHz Channel Plan: 16 full-quality channels per 6-MHz TV channel deliver reliable transmissions with less interference during complex, multichannel shoots.

• Lightweight die-cast magnesium and aluminum construction ensures rugged, reliable operation in harsh environments.
• Data transmission and reception with AES 256-bit encryption.
• Unit can be powered via USB while in operation.
• Sound Devices and AATON compatibility (SuperSlot).

A: At this time, we do not see foldable antenna options for this receiver.

Q: 3. Can the URX-S03D receiver work with the UTX-B40 or UTX-B03 transmitters? Thank you

A: This is compatible with the UTX-B03HR, not the UTX-B03

Q: 4. Will the URX-S03D UWP-D work with the older Sony UTX-B03 Bodypack Transmitter?

A: Yes, as long as the receiver and transmitter both operate within the same frequency band.

Q: 5. Will this work for both channels in a Sony X400 camera?

A: Hi Tom, Yes. Thanks, Erin

Q: 6. Will the URX-S03D fit into the PXW-X320 XDCAM? if so, do you need a mounting adapter? thx

A: Based on Sony's website, this device should fit right into the PXW-X320's slot without any additional adapters.

Q: 7. Can a Sony UTX-P40 Wireless Plug-On Transmitter (UC14: 470 to 542 MHz) be used with this receiver? Or a Sony UTX-B03 Bodypack Transmitter - same freq. channels?

A: Yes, as long as the transmitter and receiver are the same series and same frequency band.

Q: 8. Will this work in a Sound Devices SL-6, and will you be able to control the transmitter from an SD688?

A: Unfortunately, the Sound Devices SL-6 is not compatible with Sony wireless systems. The Sound Devices SD688 supports specific Audio Ltd, Lectrosonics, Sennheiser and Wisycom wireless models.

Q: 9. Is this compatible with the Sony DWT-B01 Digital Wireless transmitters?

A: No, components from Sony's UWP-D line such as the Sony URX-S03D UWP-D Dual-Channel Slot-In Wireless Receiver are not compatible for use with components from Sony's DWX line such as the Sony DWT-B01 Digital Wireless Bodypack Transmitter.

Q: 10. What's the difference between this one and the more expensive one "DWR-S03D"? https://bhpho.to/2Hd9wvU

A: The DWR-S03D utilizes Sony's DWX digital technology and can mount into Sony digital slot-in compatible camcorders, UniSlot camcorders, and SuperSlot-enabled devices using either the DWA-SLAS1 or DWA-SLAU1 adapters. It can also be used in an audio bag with the DWA-F01D adapter. The URX-S03D is a slot-in receiver that provides a two-channel digital connection to XDCAM camcorders or a single-channel connection to HDCAM camcorders via a D-sub 15-pin interface. With HDCAM camcorders, two audio signals from two transmitters can be output in the single channel as a two-channel mixing function.
