Ultra-low-latency wireless HD video, IP data and Sony camera-control system engineered for professional broadcast, ENG, sports, concerts and live production.Live broadcast sets a standard of reliability that no other production environment demands. When a camera feed drops during a narrative drama, the director calls cut. When a camera feed drops during a live sports broadcast or concert transmission, the audience watches it happen, and the consequences reach far beyond the technical gallery. The wireless video system feeding that camera position is not a convenience - it is part of the broadcast infrastructure, and it needs to perform without question.
The FLEX range was built for exactly that expectation. Three systems, each carrying HD-SDI and HDMI video at under 1 millisecond latency over up to a 600-metre range on dual-band 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz wireless. What differentiates them is what they carry alongside the video - IP network data, Sony camera control, or both - and the right system for your production depends on what your camera positions need beyond the picture itself.
All three FLEX systems accept V-Mount and Anton Bauer battery plates, output on 2 x HD-SDI and HDMI at the receiver, carry embedded audio in the video stream, and include an OLED status display for instant link monitoring. Every unit is tested by a technician on a live HD-SDI signal before dispatch.
The FLEX IP carries HD-SDI and HDMI video alongside Ethernet IP data on one wireless link. Your vision mixer receives the camera feed. Your production network gets wireless access to the camera position - tally, diagnostics, remote configuration, file transfer - simultaneously over the same system.
The transmitter accepts HD-SDI with loop-through and HDMI. Dual LAN ports on both transmitter and receiver carry standard IP traffic at up to 150 Mbps alongside the video signal. The receiver outputs 2 x HD-SDI and HDMI for video while connecting the camera position to the production network via LAN. Embedded audio, WEP, WPA, and WPA2 encryption options, RS232 and RS422 serial ports, selectable 20 or 40 MHz bandwidth, and V-Mount or Anton Bauer battery support. Supply voltage 7.5 to 24V.
The FLEX IP is the system for productions where camera positions need a video feed back to the truck and network access, without Sony shading control.
View full FLEX IP product pageThe FLEX S700 carries HD-SDI and HDMI video alongside full Sony legacy camera-control data on one wireless link. Your vision mixer receives the video feed at the same moment your shader receives full Sony 700 protocol control at the RCP - iris, paint, master black, all shading parameters - over the same system, simultaneously.
The transmitter takes HD-SDI with loop-through and HDMI. The receiver outputs 2 x HD-SDI and HDMI for video and passes Sony camera-control data through the RS422 control interface to the RCP panel. Triple-frequency operation across 5.1 to 5.9 GHz, 2.4 GHz, and 900 MHz gives your RF coordinator complete flexibility across the available spectrum. Video runs on the high-bandwidth 5 GHz band. Control data can operate on 900 MHz when 2.4 GHz is congested at large venues, with better obstacle penetration through concrete and steel structures. 128-bit AES encryption protects the Sony camera-control data channel from interception. Supply voltage 7.5 to 24V.
The FLEX S700 is the system for outside broadcast where wireless shading control and video feed are both required and IP network access is handled separately.
The FLEX S700 supports Sony broadcast cameras and is compatible with Sony RCP-1500 and RCP-3500 series remote control panels via the Sony legacy camera-control interface.
View full FLEX S700 product pageThe FLEX Fusion carries HD-SDI and HDMI video, Ethernet IP data, and Sony legacy camera control on a single wireless link. One transmitter on the camera, one receiver in the OB truck - the vision mixer gets the video feed, the shader gets Sony control from the RCP, and the production network gains wireless access to the camera position, all from one pair of units.
This consolidates what would otherwise be multiple wireless systems per camera position into one. At £225/day, the FLEX Fusion costs less than combining the FLEX IP (£175) and a CC-S700 (£125) from the wireless camera control range at £300/day for similar combined functionality. It also simplifies the rig, reduces antenna count and frequency allocations, and eliminates one wireless link's worth of potential failure points per camera position on a live transmission. Transmitter size 132 x 100 x 26 mm at 450 grams. Receiver size 163 x 97 x 26 mm at 550 grams. Supply voltage 7.5 to 36V.
The FLEX Fusion is the system for productions where video, Sony control, and IP data are all needed at the same camera position.
View full FLEX Fusion product pageThe right FLEX system depends on what your camera positions need alongside the video feed. If you need network access at the camera position, choose the FLEX IP from £175/day. If you need Sony shading control from an RCP, choose the FLEX S700 from £200/day. If you need both on one link, the FLEX Fusion from £225/day handles all three functions and costs less than combining two separate systems.

FLEX systems are used by broadcast engineers, vision mixers, camera shaders, RF coordinators, and production companies on outside broadcast, live sports, stadium events, concerts, studio production, and ENG where wireless HD video links between camera positions and the production chain are required.
Browse the FLEX range, add equipment to your enquiry, and share your production dates. Our team confirms availability and sends a quote within the hour.
Every FLEX system is tested by a technician on a live HD-SDI signal before dispatch. We verify video quality, latency, and wireless stability at rated range. For Sony control models, we confirm protocol handshake and shading response across all parameters. For IP-enabled models, we test data throughput and network transparency. All units ship with V-Mount or Anton Bauer battery plates, SDI cables, and antennas.
You collect from our London facility with same-day collection available, or we arrange delivery to your venue. Equipment returns to us at the end of your hire for re-test and re-prep before the next production.
If a camera position needs Sony control or IP data without video, see our Wireless Camera Control CC-LINK range. For pure wireless monitoring with no control or data, see our Wireless Monitoring VITA range, or contact our team to talk through your build.
All three carry HD-SDI and HDMI video at sub-1 ms latency over up to 600 metres. The FLEX IP (£175/day) adds IP data connectivity. The FLEX S700 (£200/day) adds Sony camera control. The FLEX Fusion (£225/day) adds both IP data and Sony control. Choose based on what your camera positions need alongside the video feed.
All three FLEX systems operate at under 1 millisecond end-to-end latency. In live broadcast terms, your vision mixer cuts between cameras in real time with no visible delay, and your shader sees what the camera sees at that exact moment.
Yes. All three FLEX systems carry embedded audio within the HD-SDI or HDMI video stream. No separate audio connection is required at either end of the wireless link.
All FLEX systems accept V-Mount and Anton Bauer battery plates. The FLEX Fusion accepts 7.5 to 36V supply. The FLEX S700 and FLEX IP accept 7.5 to 24V.
Yes. Each camera position uses its own FLEX transmitter-receiver pair operating on an independent frequency channel. Multiple systems operate simultaneously without interference between them. Your RF coordinator manages the frequency plan across all camera positions as part of the production's overall wireless strategy.
The FLEX S700 is specifically designed for Sony shading control workflows where 2.4 GHz congestion is a problem. The 900 MHz band provides cleaner spectrum with better penetration through stadium structures for the control channel on large-venue live broadcasts where spectrum pressure is highest.
