2.2.CopperHead 3400 Transceiver System concepts
The Telecast CopperHead 3400 Transceiver System is a camera video, audio and data multiplexing
system that installs between a portable video camera and its power source and connects via a single
fiber optic cable to a Base Station in a truck, studio or other video production setup. All video, audio
and data usually carried on Triax or multi-core cable is sent, bi-directionally, over a single lightweight
fiber over distances as long as 5 km or more. The CopperHead 3400 is specifically designed to
support the use of 3D or Dual-Link camera setups.
The Camera Unit fits between the battery or optional power supply and the camera. The
CopperHead Camera Unit is configured at time of purchase with special interface plates to
accommodate the appropriate camera battery type.
The camera Battery or optional power source attaches to the Camera Unit, which in turn, attaches
to the video camera. Batteries accommodated are Sony V, PAG, and Anton-Bauer.
The CopperHead 3400 Transceiver System consists of two main components:
1. The CopperHead 3400 Camera Unit – this unit has two options: a) the battery physical interface
system and b) the fiber connector.
2. The CopperHead 3400 Base Station – this unit has three options: a) the power configuration, b)
the fiber connector and c) the intercom module.
Typically options are determined at the time of product order and the units are delivered pre-
configured. Options can be field changed by qualified personnel. This manual describes each of the
possible options.
