System Configuration
Standard HD-SDI interface for
simple connections
The built-in HD-SDI (High Definition Serial
Digital Interface, to the SMPTE 292M
standard)provides a convenient, HD base-
band digital interface with other video
equipment via a single coaxial cable.
Multiple inputs and outputs
for wide -ranging applications
To provide the flexibility required for field
recording, editing, and monitoring in DTV
and SDTV systems, the HDW-250 the following inputs and outputs.
•HD-SDI input and output through a single coaxial cable for a smart system connection
•26-pin camera cable interface
•Analog audio 4-channel inputs and outputs (A to D conversion at 20 bits and D to A at 18 bits)
•1125/525 switchable Ref. Sync input and output
•NTSC analog composite output, with on/off switchable character superimposition
•HD analog Y/Pb/Pr component monitoring output, with on/off switchable character superimposition
Remote control with the RM-B150
The HDW-250 can be remotely controlled from the RM-B150, a new remote controller developed
for the HDW Series. A Sony HD
video camera , connected to the
HDW-250 with an HDCZ-Series 26-
pin camera cable, can also be
controlled from the RM-B150. This
unique func tion is useful where
confirmation playback is required
