Sony HDCU-2500 (HDCU_2500, HDCU/2500, HDCU2500) Half-Rack-Size Camera Control Unit

HDCU-2500 is a half 19”-rack-size camera control base station for the 3G Double-Speed Multi Format HD system camera HDC-2000 Series and the HDC-1500 Series, enabling more creative capabilities for studio, outside broadcast and sports productions.

Wide range of interfaces and network control

• The HDCU-2500 is equipped with a range of built-in interfaces such as 3G-SDI/HD-SDI/SD-SDI outputs, 3G-SDI/HD-SDI/SD-SDI/analogue composite return inputs, and a down-converted analogue composite monitor output. In addition, a variety of output interfaces are offered via optional boards, which can be installed in one free slot on the HDCU-2500. Furthermore, a built-in LAN interface (10BASE-T/100BASE-TX) allows the camera to be controlled over a network. Menu buttons and indicators that show the status of optical transmission on the front panel provide great operability.

Optic fibre extension includes power to the camera head

• The optical fibre transmission system used with the HDCU-2500 maintains the camera’s high picture quality across cable runs of up to 2,000 metres.*
