VISCA RS-422 (serial) connection
You can connect multiple cameras in a serial connection using the VISCA RS-422 OUT connectors. In a
serial connection, a remote controller can control up to seven cameras. These cables support connection
at distances of up to 1.2 km.
Use a LAN straight cable for RS-422 connection using the RJ-45 connector.

Notes
• When connecting an SRG-360SHE in a serial connection, only one SRG-360SHE camera can be
connected to a single remote controller.
To connect multiple SRG-360SHE cameras or to mix with other model cameras, use the connection
described in "VISCA over IP (LAN) connection" (page 15).
• The ILME-FR7 does not support serial connection.
