New ShaxX Cable Alternative Simplifies Broadcast Camera Power and Signalling
A new system designed to provide full bi-directional signalling and power for broadcast cameras, the ShaxX is a rugged alternative to SMPTE hybrid cables. The system allows outside broadcast and remote production crews to cut rigging time and position cameras freely wherever they are needed.
The ShaxX works by providing power to the camera without having to transport it from a remote CCU, thereby removing the expense and effort of rigging SMPTE hybrid cables. Instead, users simply connect the ShaxX unit to the camera with a SMPTE hybrid jumper cable.
