Sony HDCU-3170 HD Digital IP Capable Triax Camera Control Unit

The HDCU-3170 Triax Camera Control Unit is an ideal companion for the Sony HDC-3170 system camera. It also adds IP live production capabilities to our full range of broadcast and studio system cameras. While it's intended primarily for triax operation, adding the HKCU-FB30 fiber option board makes the HDCU-3170 compatible with both triax and fiber systems - a benefit for production companies and OB trucks working in stadiums and venues with different transmission system.Connecting to compatible cameras via triax cable, the compact (1.5U) HDCU-3170 supplies power to the camera, performs signal processing and provides an interface with external equipment. With the addition of option boards and kits, the HDCU-3170 offers support for various interfaces including 3G SDI and IP. The CCU can provide simultaneous outputs of HD, HDR and SDR when used with HDC-3500 series system cameras.
