What the thread found

• The Modulus system remains widely used and offers good transmission quality with low power consumption but tends to heat up during operation.
• The Coherent CVT 1400 receiver provides robust reception and performs reliably at distances around 200 meters, with the 900 MHz spectrum showing resistance to multipath interference and minimal susceptibility to interference from other devices despite widespread use of 900 MHz technology.
• The Coherent 900 MHz system performs effectively in non-line-of-sight environments, penetrating through multiple walls before signal degradation becomes problematic.
• The Titan microwave transmission system has demonstrated reliable performance in electromagnetically saturated environments such as urban areas and locations with multiple 2.4 GHz wireless devices.
• Custom-built VAT-Boy transmitter system offers compact size comparable to Modulus with complete transmitter and receiver units available at approximately 1300 EUR, allowing cost-effective multi-monitor setups.
• CanaTrans system is recognized for reliability and quality but operates at a higher price point around 4000 USD.

Depends on

• The Titan was reportedly unreliable in at least one user's experience with poor transmission quality despite high cost.
• Microwave systems may experience more multipath-related issues compared to 900 MHz alternatives.
• CanaTrans pricing limits accessibility for smaller productions.
• Experience reports regarding Titan reliability vary between users.
• Geographic availability varies by region and time period.
