To ensure that the subtle nuances of  
these high-quality media are  
transmitted with no deterioration,  
Sony has developed a technology  
called “S-AIR” for the radio  
transmission of digital audio signals  
with no compression, and has  
incorporated this technology into  
the EZW-RT10A.  
This technology transfers digital  
audio signals with no compression  
using the 2.4 GHz band range of  
ISM band (Industrial, Scientific, and  
Medical band), such as wireless  
LANs and Bluetooth applications.
