Introduction
The AMN39203 is wireless A/V receiver board, which works at the 5GHz unlicensed band.
It is are based on AMIMON's WHDI Professional chipset that consist of the AMN2220 baseband
receiver and the MAXIM 2851 ICs, presents the ultimate solution for HDMI receiver of the WHDI
system. The perfect HDMI video, audio quality, the high robustness and the invisible latency of
the wireless system are unmatched by any other wireless technology and presents a true
alternative to cable. The WHDI system transmits uncompressed video and audio streams
wirelessly and thus simplifies and eliminates system issues, such as: lip-sync, large buffers and
other burdens like retransmissions or error propagation.

Interface Connector (J32)
The Interface connector J32 provides various interfaces to communicate with the AMN39203
MCU to configure video related parameters and settings, or receive the network status and
communication related parameters.
The following interface options are available:
- External Power Supply voltage (5VDC ±10%)
- Signal Ground
- Video YCbCr signal output
- I2S audion output interface
- I2C bus
- Indication output (Power, Network, Video Indications)
- Board attached ID pins
- UART
- USB
- SPI
Contact Amimon to request the complete pin allocation and functional description of the
interface board.
The communication through the interface board is provided by AMIMON’s API commands. A
guide for the API commands is available upon request.
2 PRODUCT INSTALLATION
The AMN39203 is referred as the main platform that comprises a wireless Video Display Unit (VDU). It
provides RGB video signal bus and I2S audio interface at its interface connector output. The source of the
video and audio is a compatible remote wireless Video Source Device (VSU). At common application, the
VSU is connected to a video source, and transmits the video over wireless to the VDU, which is connected
to the video monitor.
The AMN39203 is designed to be integrated with any compatible Video Interface Board (VIB), to provide a
complete wireless Video Display Unit.
At common application, the VIB shall provide standard video interface that can be connected to standard
video monitor. This video interface may be HDMI, HD-SDI or any other standard or custom video interface.
It is advised to verify compatibility of the VIB to the interface connector type, pin functionality, and signal
compatibility of the AMN39203 module, before initiating the installation.
At installation, make sure that the AMN39203 is firmly attached and secured to the VIB by proper
mechanical means.
Installation of AMN39203 must provide the adequate heat dissipation means, to provide the module
ambient temperature within the product operating conditions as specified.
3 SYSTEM SETUP
See ‘Product Description’ for port location described in this section.
1. Connect the Amimon-AMN39203 receiver to compatible Video Interface Board (VIB).
2. Connect the VIB to a video monitor through the supported video interface of the VIB.
3. Power ON the VIB according to its operating manual.
4. Set the Antenna orientation of the AMN39203:
It is recommended to separate the antennas to match the
picture. Receiving antennas should be oriented in the same
plane as the transmitting antenna.
Note: For maximal range
Keep line of sight between the transmitter and the receiver.
Avoid placing any obstacles besides the transmitter or the receiver.
Position both transmitter and receiver in an upwards position, for enhanced antennas
performance.
Mount the Amimon - AMN39203 module with proper air ventilation.
Bring the transmitter and receiver closer together while trying to maintain at least 1 meter
between them.
FCC Caution
Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the responsible party could void the user's
authority to operate this equipment.
Notice:
This module in its final integration requires the end-product to continue to comply with DFS requirements.
A class II permissive change may be required for operation not already described in the FCC Grant filing.
OEM Labeling Requirements
Notice: The OEM of final integrator must ensure that FCC labeling requirements are met.
For a host using this module, if (1) the module’s FCC ID is not visible when installed in the host, or (2) if
the host is marketed so that end users do not have straightforward commonly used methods for access to
remove the module so that the FCC ID of the module is visible; then an additional permanent label
referring to the enclosed module should be used, with the following contents: Contains FCC ID:
.
The host OEM user manual must also contain clear instructions on how end users can find and/or access
the module and the FCC ID. The applicable usage is to be used as a wireless device, connected to the back
of a professional camera and transmitting live video, coming from BNC connectors
