2.3.2.1. Fibre/Triax Transmission

The HDC-1500-series as well as the new HDC-2500-series and HDC-1700 are based
single-piece design chassis
on a
technology is integral part of the camera body and as such cannot be changed
(compared to a dockable camera type with camera head and a separate camera
adaptor).
Big advantage of the single-piece design is its high reliability and its compact and
lightweight construction, attributes being very essential for todays` productions.
In order to flexibly react on the transmission requirements, only
offers a unique and brand new feature: the right side cover of the camera can be
changed to accommodate a wide variety of different transmission systems.
Currently, the standard 3G-fibre system can be exchanged to the new digital triax
transmission side cover. In the same way, it is also be possible to accommodate
wireless RF-technology for cable-free operation (refer to chapter 2.3.2.2.).
Picture 6 shows the principle of exchanging the side cover modules to change the
transmission path from fibre to triax and vice versa
In order to exchange the side cover (HKC-TR27 or HKC-FB20), the internal connector
panel is mandatory to be installed (Type: HKC-CN20).

Components Description

HKC-TR20 Side cover with analogue triax transmission system
HKC-TR27 Side cover with digital triax transmission (3G bandwidth)
HKC-FB20 Side cover with 3G fibre transmission (digital)
HKC-CN20 Internal Connector Panel
(mandatory to mount HKC-TR20/-TR27/ -FB20 or the wireless side panel)
Please note: HDC-1700 does only support fibre transmission to the CCU. From SW
version V2.0 onwards, 3G bandwidth is supported. The HDC-1700 is not equipped
with the exchangeable side cover technology.
If HDC-1700 has to be employed in a triax environment, this is only possible by using
the external convert (HDTX-200 for digital triax transmission).
