The Philips SBC VL1200 Wireless TV Link is an excellent innovation of interest to any household with more than one television. The premise is relatively simple, enabling you to send signals from video sources from one part of the house to another without the need for trailing cables about your home. The value of this is best explained by example, which will also enable us to define our preliminary testing of the product. We connected the transmitter box to our DVD player and satellite box, passing through to the main television. We placed the receiver unit by a second TV, located upstairs. We were then able to watch satellite, or DVD movies on either our primary, secondary TV, or both. You can even use the remote controls upstairs to operate the video source. You can have your primary television watching a different video source, or even on standby, while you watch something else on your second TV. It’s as simple as that. Setting up the equipment is straightforward and can be done in less than five minutes. Take your receiver unit, plug it in and connect the supplied SCART lead to your secondary television. Next take the transmitter, plug it in to the mains and connect by SCART lead to your television. You can then connect the SCART leads from your choice of up to two video sources (eg: DVD/Satellite/VCR ) and connect them to the two input sockets on the back of the transmitter. The transmitter should ideally be placed directly on top of the video sources used, so that the infrared eye can send commands from the remote controls. If this isn’t convenient, as was the case with our test setup, a remote control extender cord is supplied, which is a cable with a jack plug that connects to the transmitter that has two infrared eyes that you can stick to the front of your video sources in front of the IR sensors. The transmitter and receiver units are elegantly styled and discrete, each measuring 204x168x65mm, finished in silver, with a short flip-up aerial. The quality of reception is excellent, so that you can happily watch DVD movies on your second TV without feeling that you are compromising on image quality. The sets are vulnerable to interference, as with any RF based product, but in our testing we experienced minimal problems – a minicab visit temporarily caused some picture and sound noise, but nothing that prevented acceptable viewing. The Philips SBC VL1200 Wireless TV Link is a well implemented solution that achieves what it sets out to with aplomb. The package comes supplied with the transmitter and receiver boxes, two SCART leads, the remote control extender cord, two AC power adaptors and manual. You can separately purchase Philips SBC VL1205 additional receivers, if you want to hook up to more televisions. --Jason Weston |
