FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The RR-940C operates as half of a transmitter / receiver pair for the transmission of four

performance specifications.
This unit is contained in a rugged aluminum housing with internal dc voltage regulation. The
detachable terminal blocks and LED indicators provide for easy installation and monitoring of
video and power.

version please see the RR-940C.
