Combine Sony camera controls, intercom audio and tally in a single Ethernet link and send them via WiFi.
The solution allows to setup a camera (including all Sony cameras) at a remote or moving position with minimal hardware required.
Applications:
- Live and outside broadcasting
- Steadicams
The system is compatible with studio and box cameras of all major manufacturers. Sony cameras require special treatment as their proprietary communication protocols do not
tolerate any delay or packet loss caused by instabilities in communication channels. Thus simple approaches for wireless transmission cannot be applied to them. OB-401 solves this problem and provides stable reliable connection for most operational conditions.
Features and Benefits:
- Packs all required camera connections into a single Ethernet link
- Supports Sony Simple (Ethernet) and Sony Legacy (Serial) camera protocols
- Substitutes Sony CNA at the camera end
- No specific requirements to wireless equipment
- Audio connection: 4-wire +4dBu line at the base end, XLR-5 headset socket at the camera end
- Multiple tally I/O options (including embedding to/extraction from protocol)
- Power supply: 12 V (XLR-4 connector)
- Passive PoE for wireless transmitter connection (compatible with equipment from Ubiquiti Networks)
- Optional bracket for mounting on a studio camera
