The Quick-Connect Universal CCU Interface
This interface combines a versatile connectivity solution with a broadcast-quality camera control unit
(CCU). It is the best choice for environments where lighting and color management are priorities and
installations requiring long cabling distances.
Note
The Universal CCU supports resolutions with frame rates of 60, 59.94 and 50 frames per second, but not
lower.
