Studio Technologies has introduced a new portable truck-end unit for its Live-Link Mini Remote Camera Interface System. The compact device is designed for broadcasters who need a flexible and reliable solution for interconnecting with the system's camera-end unit.
Optimized for Field Applications
The portable truck-end unit is optimized for field applications where easy setup, fast configuration, and compact size are essential. Weighing less than four pounds, the unit is well-suited for 'run-and-gun' operations in which the quick transport and setup of broadcast equipment is critical.
The unit features dual SDI outputs (active 'mults'), two analog de-embed audio outputs, and dual-channel party-line (PL) intercom support. The PL intercom interface can provide power for user belt packs or be connected to an existing powered system.
Power Options
The portable truck-end unit can be powered by two DC power sources. A 4-pin XLR connector on the front panel allows a 12 Vdc power supply to be connected, while a battery mount on the back of the unit's cover is compatible with industry-leading Anton/Bauer batteries.
Live-Link Mini System Overview
The Live-Link Mini Remote Camera Interface System provides one SDI path in each direction, supporting a wide range of SD-, HD-, and 3G video signals. The system is ideal for electronic news gathering (ENG), uplink truck, and specialized broadcast, corporate, and education applications.
For quick and reliable field deployment, the camera- and truck-end units interconnect using one single-mode optical fiber. Standard optical, video, and audio connectors are used throughout.
