PocketWizard FCC PlusXe Transceiver
The PlusXe is the newest addition to our E Release family of radios. It functions exactly like our regular PlusX but adds the ability to use either the new E Release firmware protocol OR our tried and true Legacy firmware. This new radio is 100% backwards compatible with all PocketWizard enabled products as well as the Raven by Fusion TLC. The best part is that you can switch between firmware versions right on the unit itself, no computer or program needed!
The PlusXe is the simplest PocketWizard radio ever and the perfect entry into the PocketWizard Wireless System. How simple? Attach one PlusXe to your camera, another PlusXe to a remote flash using a flash sync cable, set both radios to the same channel, and start taking pictures. You can also trigger your camera remotely, just connect the appropriate remote camera cable. The PlusXe is also available as a 2 pack.
Cables are sold separately
Please note the PlusXe does NOT include cables. We want to protect the environment and instead of providing multiple cables that you don’t use that will eventually end up in the landfill, you can order the specific cables you need for your equipment. If you need help figuring out what cables you need, please see our cablefinder or contact us for assistance.

Understanding the PlusX and PlusXe
The PlusX and PlusXe radios are the simplest PocketWizard radios ever and the perfect entry into the PocketWizard Wireless System. The functions are identical with one exception: the PlusX uses our Legacy firmware only. The PlusXe uses our E Release firmware but can also be downgraded to Legacy firmware for full backwards compatibility.
Triggering a flash? Attach one PlusX to your camera, another PlusX to a remote flash using the appropriate flash sync cable, set both radios to the same Channel, and start taking pictures.
Triggering a remote camera? Attach one PlusX to a remote camera using the appropriate remote camera cable, set both radios to the same Channel, and press test on the PlusX in your hand. For this setup, the E Release firmware with the PlusXe radios will give you extra range and reliability for triggering at longer distances.
The PlusX is compatible with all PocketWizard transmitters and receivers using Legacy firmware. The PlusXe is compatible with both Legacy and E Release firmware and to change firmware protocol, simply follow a specific sequence on the radio. Either version can be the perfect companion for your existing radios and new flashes.
