The WA-TX-03S / WA-RX-03S are 15 ch multichannel audio modules that operate in the European harmonized 863 - 865 MHz band with RF power selection of 5 and 10 mW. In addition to offering a frequency range sufficient for voice transmission, the compander noise reduction system has a wide dynamic range, enabling transmission of clear audio signals.
As embedded devices, they include nearly all the parts necessary for audio transmission in a small shielding case, making it possible to develop audio transmission equipment in a short time.
