Introduction 

The Videosys camera control system allows the user

robust broadcast quality wireless link. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 

The  Videosys  camera  control  solution  consists  of 
three  distinct  components;  an  Indoor  Unit  (IDU)  an 
Outdoor Unit (ODU)and a camera Receiver Unit (RX).  
Multiples  of  these  components  can  be  used  to 
construct  larger  scale  setups,  for  example  multiple 
ODUs can be used to increase RF coverage forming a 

‘cell

-

like’ infrastructure  

 

 
Each  camera  to  be  controlled  requires  its  own 
receiver unit (RX).
