Sony SxS PRO Specification

SxS PRO Memory Card
™
ExpressCard media for
XDCAM EX camcorders
™
and decks.
When Sony set out to develop our
most advanced flash media, we
based it on the ExpressCard™
standard. The ExpressCard standard
is the replacement for the PC card
and is supported by the same
industry-wide consortium that
standardized the PC card.
Enter the next generation of media:
Sony's SxS PRO Memory Card.
Because it uses a serial interface, it
transfers at a faster bus speed, is
more reliable and comes in a smaller
size resulting in a significantly lower
storage cost per minute of high
definition video when compared to
conventional PC parallel cards. And
it's designed to work with our
incredibly capable XDCAM EX series
of camcorders and decks, each of
which features two SxS PRO Memory
Card slots.
Faster. Smaller. Larger
Capacity. And smoother
workflow too.
Working together, XDCAM EX™
recording and SxS PRO media will
change the way event, corporate,
and industrial video is captured and
posted. In addition to faster transfers,
smaller size and longer record times
than the PC card, the SxS PRO
Memory Card increases workflow
efficiency, with seamless transition
from camcorder acquisition to
PC or laptop for editing and
archiving.
The SxS PRO Memory Card is about
half the size of a PC card and fits in
ExpressCard 34 and 54 slot sizes. The
lineup now includes the SBP-32*,
SBP-16 and SBP-8 which feature 32,
16 and 8GB storage capacity.**
Providing reliability, durability and
expansion flexibility while offering
improved performance, the SxS PRO
Memory Card is rapidly becoming
the flash media of choice – and the
definitive media for high definition.
High definition. It's in our DNA.
