Advanced UWP-D Digital Audio Processing
The UWP-D27 system features Sony’s proprietary UWP-D digital audio processing—a hybrid analog/digital technology that ensures pristine, low-latency transmission with full dynamic range. Unlike traditional analog companding systems, UWP-D processing preserves the natural character of the input signal, producing audio with exceptional clarity and minimal distortion.
The system operates in the UHF band and supports wide switching bandwidth for flexible frequency selection, ensuring stable performance even in RF-heavy environments.
- Audio Processing: UWP-D digital technology for natural sound
- Frequency Range: 470.025 MHz – 541.875 MHz (region dependent)
- System Latency: Approx. 0.35 ms
- Transmission Type: UHF analog with digital companding
Fast and Simple Setup with NFC Sync
The UWP-D27 is built for fast, intuitive operation in the field. With NFC (Near Field Communication) sync, pairing transmitters to the receiver is instant—simply touch the units together to automatically synchronize frequency channels. The auto-scan feature detects the cleanest available channels, ensuring interference-free operation in any environment.
- Auto Channel Scan: Finds the most stable frequencies automatically
- NFC Sync: One-touch pairing between transmitter and receiver
- Display: High-contrast OLED screens for clear visibility
True Diversity Reception for Stable Signal
The URX-P41D dual-channel receiver employs true diversity technology, which uses two antennas and two independent tuner circuits per channel to continuously compare signals and select the strongest one. This significantly reduces audio dropouts and interference, ensuring stable and reliable wireless transmission up to 330 feet (100 meters) line-of-sight.
- Reception Mode: True diversity per channel
- Operating Range: Up to 100 m (330 ft)
- Antenna Type: Dual removable flexible antennas
Camera-Ready Design and Integration
Built for professional workflows, the UWP-D27 system integrates seamlessly with Sony Alpha mirrorless cameras, FX series cinema cameras, and professional camcorders via the MI Shoe digital interface, which transmits power and audio digitally—eliminating the need for analog cables.
When used with compatible Sony cameras, audio levels can be monitored directly from the camera display, and the receiver draws power via the MI Shoe for cable-free convenience. For non-Sony cameras, the included 3.5mm TRS output cable ensures full compatibility with DSLRs, recorders, and cinema rigs.
- MI Shoe Interface: Digital audio and power connection to Sony cameras
- Compatibility: Works with DSLRs, cinema cameras, and professional camcorders
- Mounting: Cold shoe or belt clip mount
Rugged, Lightweight Construction
Both the receiver and transmitters are built from high-strength metal housings that withstand demanding field conditions. Despite their durability, the units are compact and lightweight for discreet mounting on cameras or talent. The receiver’s intuitive control layout and OLED screen ensure efficient operation, even in low-light environments.
- Receiver Dimensions: 63 × 82 × 21 mm
- Transmitter Dimensions: 63 × 82 × 21 mm
- Receiver Weight: Approx. 100 g (without batteries)
- Transmitter Weight: Approx. 90 g (each, without batteries)
- Power Supply: 2 × AA batteries per unit or MI Shoe power (receiver)
The Sony UWP-D27 2-Person Camera-Mount Wireless Lavalier System delivers outstanding sound quality, reliable dual-channel transmission, and effortless setup in a compact, professional package—perfect for filmmakers, journalists, and event producers capturing two subjects simultaneously with broadcast-level clarity.
