Telecast Fiber Systems announced the availability of the CopperHead 3200, a camera-mounted fiber optic transceiver that offers a multicasting solution for HD television applications including news production, sports, digital cinematography, multi-camera studios, trucks and flypack field production.
The CopperHead 3200 provides a robust fiber link between any professional camera or camcorder and the broadcaster truck, control room or production center position. On a single fiber connection, the system transports bidirectionally and simultaneously digital (SDI or HD/SDI) or analog (NTSC or PAL) signals as well as all camera control signals, audio, video, data, sync., tally/call to prompter and intercom between the camera and the base station.
Additionally, the CopperHead 3200 is the first system of its kind to provide 10/100 Ethernet link for next-generation camera control or remote links to laptops or servers. The system guarantees total absence of interference, ground problems or distortions due to temperature variations.
