Double-speed Material Transfer and Recording 
(SRW-5800/5100*

 only)

The SRW-5800/5100 allows single-stream video material, 
12-channel audio, time code, and VANC metadata to be 
transferred to another SRW-5800, and to servers and nonlinear 
editing systems at twice normal speed using a dual-link 3G-SDI, 
dual-link HD-SDI, or 3G-SDI interface.  This is achieved by playing 
back tapes at 880 Mbps - double the recorded 440 Mbps speed.  
This capability can greatly reduce the time required for material 
ingest. 

*1:  The SRW-5100 is playback only. 

Double-speed Transfer and Recording

3G-SDI Interface (SRW-5800/5100 only)

The SRW-5800/5100*

1

 comes equipped with 3G-SDI (2.97 Gbps) 

interfaces, which allow users to transfer 4:2:2/1080p or 4:4:4/1080i 
materials via a single SDI connection, for less complexity in 
system configuration.  Users can select either dual-link HD-SDI, or 
3G-SDI via the menu.  Furthermore, dual-link 3G-SDI is also 
supported for transferring 4:4:4 signals in double-speed mode 
and 3D stereoscopic mode. 

*1:  The SRW-5100 provides outputs only. 

HDCAM Format*

1

 Recording (SRW-5500 only)

In addition to the HDCAM-SR format, the SRW-5500 enables 
HDCAM™ recording and playback in all frame rates specified by 
the HDCAM format, including 1080/23.98, 24, 25, 29.97, 30PsF, and 
1080/50, 59.94, 60i.  It supports the full editing capability of 
HDCAM format recordings, including independent editing of the 
four audio channels.  This HDCAM recording capability offers a 
cost-effective yet high-quality alternative, operating in the full 
quality of the industry-standard Common Image Format (CIF). 

*1:  The HDCAM format does not support 720p recording and RGB 4:4:4/1080 

recording. 

4:4:4 High Quality (HQ) Mode

The 4:4:4 High Quality (HQ) mode enables 880 Mbps 1080/4:4:4 
RGB recording with a milder compression ratio of 2:1.  This is ideal 
when highest possible image quality is the top priority. 

720p Recording and Playback

In standard configuration, the SRW-5800/5500/5000/5100*

1

 can 

record and play back in 4:2:2 720/59.94p or 720/50p formats.  
These formats can be used for DTV programming and 
transmission applications.  As with 1080 format, users still have up 
to 12 channels of independently editable 24-bit audio available 
when operating in 720p format.  In addition, 720p/1080i and 
720p/480i or 576i bidirectional format conversion can be 
accomplished in these VTRs. 

*1:  The SRW-5100 is playback only. 

2K Real-time Recording and Playback

The SRW-5800/5100 can record and play back in 2K (2048 x 1080, 
2048 x 1556) mode via 3G-SDI or HD-SDI dual-link, with 12-channel 
audio, which allows high-quality 2K content to be handled in real 
time.  The playback signal can be downsized*

1

 to HD or SD, which 

enables users to view the material using conventional monitors.

*1:  Requires the optional HKSR-5001 board.
