Camera Control Unit - Connections To A CCU

Connections To A CCU

Broadcast cameras typically carry several signals over the camera cable in addition to the camera output itself.

Typically, RGB signals are transmitted over the camera cable. The CCU will usually convert these to SDI, YUV or composite for interfacing to other video equipment.

Typical signals can be both digital signal and analog signals:

  • Video out (Serial digital interface (SDI)
  • Video out (composite video)
  • Video out (component video)
  • Audio out (microphone on board)
  • Video in (genlock in the form of color burst)
  • Return video in (composite)
  • Return video in (vision mixer program out)
  • Interruptible feedback Intercom
  • Tally light trigger

Famous quotes containing the word connections:

    A foreign minister, I will maintain it, can never be a good man of business if he is not an agreeable man of pleasure too. Half his business is done by the help of his pleasures: his views are carried on, and perhaps best, and most unsuspectedly, at balls, suppers, assemblies, and parties of pleasure; by intrigues with women, and connections insensibly formed with men, at those unguarded hours of amusement.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
