3.1TriaxHD mode

A camera head with the LDK 5860 TriaxHD adapter is connected to a TriaxHD Base Station using a Triax cable. The maximum length of cable that can be used without significant degradation of the video signal is 1,200 m (4,000 ft.) for a 14 mm Triax cable.

The power supply is applied to the Base Station and via the Triax cable to the camera. An OCP 400 operational control panel can be connected directly to the Base Station using a cross- over Ethernet cable.
