Cost Effective HDTV Camera Cables

 28th Jul 2009

Bryant Broadcast's commercial grade composite SMPTE 311M, single-mode fibre optic and copper composite camera cables can multiplex audio and video signals and power and are manufactured using Furukawa TV-OM-AMS SMPTE specification cable, terminated with Lemo SMPTE 304M connectors.

Lemo's range of high performance fibre optics camera connectors have been developed to meet the needs of the new generation of digital TV cameras forming the basis of the SMPTE, ARIB and EBU standards. The LEMO 3K.93C connector has been fully tested is TUV approved and is used in international events transmissions and in applications such as the Sony BVP9500 super slow motion camera to CCU.

The face of each F2 fibre contact in the connector goes through a precise, multi-stage, laboratory standard polishing process in the Bryant factory. This process achieves excellent optical clarity and alignment, thereby reducing return loss and minimizing insertion loss.

Furakawa's TV-OM-AMS cable is manufactured to the American SMPTE (Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers) standard (as opposed to their more expensive Japanese ARIB version which Bryant also stocks).

The Bryant Broadcast/ Furakawa SMPTE terminated camera cable's performance is proven superior to most other supplier's standard SMPTE offerings; exceeding the physical, electrical and very tight, bend insensitive radii optical requirements of the specification ; enabling them to withstand the rigours of cable installation and remote field applications, whilst still providing a considerable cost saving over their ARIB cables.

Every Bryant UK built cable comes complete with rubber boots, gaiters, dust caps and clear heat shrink for identification and can be supplied reeled on the Bryant SCD-FO skeleton drum if required. As a LEMO UK, Fischer and Neutrik Opticalcon approved optical termination house, Bryant can not only manufacture but also rebuild most makes of SMPTE camera cables in their Croydon, UK premises; thus avoiding the costs of sending imported cables back to the USA or Asia for repair.
