Versatile System Components

The HDC-1000 Series of cameras is compatible with a variety of peripherals including camera control units, remote controllers, command networkunits,andmastersetupunits. This allows operators to flexibly configure the system according to their needs both in the studio and out in the field.Optional triax adaptors are available for the HDC-1000/ HDC-1400/HDC-1500 optical fibre- basedcameratoenabletriax-based operation.

Camera Control Unit

TheHDC-1000Seriesofcamerascanbeconfigured with two types of camera control unit

the full-size HDCU-1000 and half-rack-size HDCU-1500. The optical fibre transmission system used in these units maintains the high picturequalityofthecameraacrosscableruns ofupto3000meters(9843feet)1 withtheHDCU- 1000 and up to 1800 meters (5906 feet)1 with the HDCU-1500. Both models are equipped with a comprehensive range of built-in inter- faces such as HD-SDI/SD-SDI outputs, HD-SDI/ SD-SDI/analogue composite return inputs, andadown-convertedanaloguecomposite monitoroutput. Inaddition, avarietyofoutput interfaces are offered via optional boards, which can be installed in four slots on the HDCU-1000 and two slots on the HDCU-1500. Furthermore, theEthernetinterface (10Base-T/ 100Base-TX) that is built into both CCUs allows the camera to be controlled over a network.

1 When supplying power to the camera via the optical fibre cable, the maximum cable length varies with the camera system configuration, lens type, viewfinder type, and the number of cable connectors.
