SMC-CAM-LC and SMC-CCU-LC

Technical description

The SMC (SMPTE Media Convertor) system from Norwia has been designed to allow SD-SDI and HD-SDI broadcast cameras fitted with Standard SMPTE 304M hybrid connectors to be deployed using ordinary single mode optical fibre.

This system allows the user to replace the fibre/copper hybrid cable between the camera and the CCU with standard fibre cable. The SMC system is perfect for Stadiums, Arenas and Concert Halls that have preinstalled fibre networks.

Both ends of this system are enclosed in a compact, lightweight, ruggedized aluminum enclosure, ideally.

SMC-CAM-P-LC

Technical description

The SMC (SMPTE Media Convertor) system from Norwia has been designed to provide power insertion to broadcast cameras fitted with Standard SMPTE 304M hybrid connectors, thus allowing them to be remotely powered over the hybrid cable. Power can be inserted and transferred to the remote camera which can be up to 300m away. When combined with the SMC-CCU, cameras can be remotely deployed using the ordinary single mode optical fibre network that may exist within a stadium, campus or metro area.

SMC-CAM-P-LC is provided in a compact footprint for the most cost-effective solutions. It is supplied in a "Multi Camera" version which is switch selectable between major camera manufacturers for easy deployment.
