76. Multiplex Signal Input Connector (MPX) Communications between the camera side and the Remote Control Unit (RCU) are available through a Single coaxial cable by using this Connector as the composite signal, gen-lock signal, control signal and Intercom/audlo signal are multiplexed, and the com- posite signal is output from the Remote Control Unit. (RCU)

77. External DC Input Connector (XLR, 4-pin) (EXT DC)

This connector accepts the power cable from an
