HDC-2000 Series Versatile System Components
HDCU-2000 Full-rack-size Camera Control Unit
HDCU-2500 Half-rack-size Camera Control Unit
You can configure the HDC-2000 Series with two types of camera control units –
either the full-rack-size HDCU-2000, or the half-rack-size HDCU-2500. The optical
fiber transmission system used in these units maintains the camera’s high
picture quality across cable runs of up to 13,123 feet (4,000 meters)*
1
with the
HDCU-2000, and up to 6,562 feet (2,000 meters)*
1
with the HDCU-2500. Both
models are equipped with a range of built-in interfaces such as 3G-SDI/HD-SDI/
SD-SDI outputs, 3G-SDI/HD-SDI/SD-SDI/analog composite return inputs, and a
down-converted analog composite monitor output. In addition, a variety of
output interfaces are offered via optional boards, which can be installed in six
slots on the HDCU-2000 and two slots on the HDCU-2500. Furthermore, the LAN
interface (10BASE-T/100BASE-TX) that is built into both CCUs allows you to
control the camera over a network.
Both the HDCU-2000 and HDCU-2500 CCU are equipped with menu buttons and
indicators that show the status of optical transmission on the front panel,
providing greater operability.
*1 When supplying power to the camera via an optical fiber cable, maximum cable length varies with camera system
configuration, lens type, viewfinder type, the size of the optical fiber cable, and the number of cable connectors.
HDCU-2000
HDC-2000 Series cameras are compatible with a variety of new and legacy peripherals including camera control units, remote controllers,
command network units, and master setup units. This gives you flexibility to configure a system according to your needs both in the studio and
out in the field. Optional HDTX-200 and HDFX-200 Digital Triax Adaptors are available for the HDC-2000, HDC-2400, and HDC-2500 optical
fiber-based cameras to enable triax-based operation.
