Introduction
The LU is a lightweight unit that enables anyone to transmit live video or data
at the tap of a button using multiple existing cellular or wireless
infrastructures, as well as directly via the Ethernet (LAN).
It is designed to transmit high-quality live streaming video from the field for
any type of event, such as breaking news, sports or live interviews, without
the need for costly satellite or microwave uplink units.
NOTE
The LiveU Xtender is a lightweight external antenna unit that increases
network reception and provides additional resiliency for live video
transmission in extreme scenarios, such as heavily crowded locations.
You can use this device to increase network reception of the LiveU
LU60/LU70 units to which it is connected.
Contact LiveU for more details about purchasing this option. The LiveU
Xtender is described in the LiveU Xtender User Guide.
