Camlinx Fibre systems are camera back systems for multiplexing broadcast quality video,
audio, talk-back and control signals onto fibre-optic cables for transmission between a
camera and a production facility. This gives greatly increased transmission distance
compared to coax cable, increased data rates, reduced cable thickness and reduced
susceptibility to EM interference. The Camlinx 4K system comprises of a Base unit which
resides in the production area and a camera-mounted Head unit. The units are connected
by a fibre optic cable which allows the transmission of 4K video signals up to 10Km. The
head unit can be powered down a hybrid fibre cable or with a local 12V supply.

Signals
Description
Connectors
4K VIDEO
4 x BNC
3 Gb/s
- SMPTE 424M Four 3G SDI signals in one direction from the
1.5 Gb/s - SMPTE 292M camera end to the base end. Support for 4K
270 Mb/s - SMPTE 259M SMPTE 425 video over 4 links.
HD VIDEO
2 x BNC
1.5 Gb/s - SMPTE 292M Two HD-SDI video signals. One in each
270 Mb/s - SMPTE 259M direction.
HDMI
1 x HDMI type A
The HD-SDI video output at the head or base is also output as HDMI.
SERIAL
2 x 9pin D(socket) Bidirectional serial signals for remote control panels (RCP).
RS232 or RS422 – user selectable.
TALLY
1 x 9pin D(plug)
Bidirectional Tally signal can be asserted at head or base. (9pin D plug)
SYNC
1 x BNC
Bi-level(SD) and Tri-level(HD) syncs are supported.
Signals in both directions, the sync/genlock signal can be sourced from
either end. The system will detect the sync signal and automatically
configure the system to support it.
ETHERNET 1 x RJ45
10/100 baseT (Bidirectional).
Provides support for Ethernet based RCPs or web browser.
TIMECODE 2 x BNC
Two Timecode signals, one in each direction.
TALKBACK 2 x XLR5
/AUDIO
Noise : better than
-70dB
2 bidirectional high quality audio channels
suitable for programme audio or Talkback.
Additional audio channels can be added with
the ASM. (Audio to Serial Module)
