The Atomos TX (transmitter only) provides wireless 4K/HD video transmission aimed at streamlining on-set and location monitoring. It transmits 4K HDMI and HD-SDI signals so crews can monitor camera output without running cables. Use it on tripods, handheld rigs, gimbals, or in studio setups to keep director and client monitors wirelessly connected.
Atomos built the TX to deliver mobility and ease of use without compromising signal quality. It supports extremely low-latency HD-SDI and 4K HDMI transmission, which helps ensure near real-time monitoring for professional workflows. In addition, the transmitter can pair with multiple receivers so teams can share the same live feed across several monitors.

Cinematographers and camera assistants use the TX to free monitors from cable constraints. For example, you can keep a director’s monitor and client monitor wirelessly connected while the camera moves on gimbals or handheld rigs. Furthermore, production teams use the TX to feed multiple receivers so different departments view the same live image simultaneously.
