Accsoon’s CineView SE is a new wireless video transmission system with both SDI and HDMI connectivity for up to 1080p60 image over up to 1200ft with 50ms latency and a stable connection thanks to dual-band.
Every TX unit can stream to a maximum of four devices. The system costs $649.
The Chinese company Accsoon first made headlines back in 2019, when they introduced a very affordable HDMI wireless video transmitter called CineEye at the NAB Show. Since then, Accsoon launched many new products in the field of wireless video that further improved the connectivity, range, and latency such as the CineEye 2S Pro or the CineView Quad.
Recently, the company launched another new HDMI and SDI wireless video transmission system – the Accsoon CineView SE. Simply put, it is the CineView HE system with the added SDI connectivity. Let’s take a look at the details.
The new CineView SE system consists of both the transmitter (TX) unit and the receiver (RX) unit. They each have four removable antennas and a range of 1,200ft using Accsoon’s Dual-Band wireless technology. This transmits the same image at both 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequencies at the same time. The receiver then intelligently identifies interferences, as it combines both signals together as needed into one complete stream. Accsoon claims that this technology is significantly more stable than wireless systems that simply switch between frequencies. The stream latency stays under 50ms, according to Accsoon.
In terms of connectivity, the TX has both SDI and HDMI inputs, while the receiver has SDI and HDMI outputs, capable of up to 1080p 60fps image transfer. The TX also accepts SDI level A and B signals used in older professional cameras.
The CineView SE system is fairly compact with both the transmitter and receiver weighing in at 210g each while measuring 105 x 66 x 32mm (excluding antennas). This is smaller than the CineEye 2S Pro, for instance. The SE also does not have any active cooling.
Just like other CineView models, the CineView SE transmitter (on top of one RX unit) can be used with up to four other receiving devices – either CineView RX units (maximum total of 4), iOS or Android devices running the Accsoon Go app, or any combination of those two kinds of devices.
Price and availability
Accsoon’s CineView SE can be pre-ordered now and will be shipping in August. The price has been set to $649 (plus local taxes). For users wishing to use the CineView SE solely with iOS and Android devices, the TX unit will also be available to purchase as a standalone, without the RX. The price for the standalone TX unit has not been announced yet.
