Section I - Short Length Multi Core Studio Configurations
The GY-HD250U w/KA-HD250U/U(A) can be used to construct an economical SD studio system that produces
stunning 16:9 or 4:3 SD images.
Investment is future proofed. Upgrading from an SD to an HD system will require changing the video interface only.
When replacing a GY-DV550U, the original CCU the RM-P210U; the 26pin control cable and the studio viewfinder VF-
P400U can continue to be used.
When needed, the GY-HD250U can be used as an ENG camera by detaching it from the KA-HD250U/U(A).

HD Studio Key features and user benefits
The GY-HD250U w/KA-HD250U/U(A) can be used to build an economical HD studio system that produces stunning
images.
Both HD component and HD-SDI video is supported giving user flexibility of using a component switcher or a HD-SDI
switcher.
The new RM-HP250AU gives the user the flexibility of connecting an additional local remote control to the studio system.
A live 720P or 1080i signal can be outputted depending on the user’s switcher requirements.
When replacing a GY-DV550U based studio system, the original 26pin control cable and studio viewfinder VF-P400U can
continue to be used, or replaced with the new VF-HP840U HD/SD viewfinder.
Existing user’s 26Pin Sony Cable can be used to connect RM-HP250AU and KA-HD250U/U(A).
When needed, the GY-HD250U can be readily detached from the KA-HD250U/U(A)(Sled) and used as an ENG camera.

Section II - Medium Length Fiber Cable Studio Configurations
Typical Applications:
Medium length Fiber Cable Studio Configurations are used for EFP, Sports and Events requiring the CCU to be located
more than 100m from the Camera’s location. When multi-core cable lengths exceed 100m, the multi-Core cable weight
becomes excessive. For lengths greater than 100m a fiber cable can be used for applications that do not need power to be
delivered to the camera or a hybrid (combined fiber and copper cable) that also delivers power is used to connect the Studio
Camera to the base station. Camplex and Telecast Fiber are two companies that produce systems that use either fiber or
hybrid cables to connect the camera to the CCU.
CAMPLEX:
CAMPLEX produces economical hybrid cable connected systems that integrate with the GY-HD250U. Their system
consists of a Camera Adapter mounted on the Camera, a Hybrid Fiber Cable and a Base Station.

Camplex System Diagram
The Camera Adapter with additional cabling provides a signal interface between the camera and the Hybrid Cable.
The Hybrid cable consists of a coaxial cable whose center conductor gauge depends on the customer’s power
requirements and a fiber cable. Both are enclosed in a single sheath.
The Fiber cable carries the HD-SDI optical signal back to the base station where it is converted back to an electrical
signal HD-SDI signal.
The center conductor in the coax carries both power and all the required signals between the Base station and the
Camera adapter.

CAMPLEX System Key features and Customer Benefit
[Tripod Mounted]
Complex's (CP-301C and CP-701C) systems provide an economical medium cable length (up to 900m) solution.
Due to the camera adapter’s light weight (CP301C – 2lbs/CP701 -2.5 lbs) the camera can be shoulder mounted and
operated for long periods of time without fatiguing the user.
The CP-301C CCU and the CP-701C CCU primarily differ in their signal handling capabilities. The CP-701C can pass
Component SD signals between the camera and the base station and has a asynchronous return video path back to the
camera.
[Sled Mounted]
The CP-301C/CP-701C Sled mounted configuration is an economical medium distance CCU solution.
This configuration enables viewing and focusing the camera images on a high definition studio monitor..
Up to 48 Watts of power is supplied to the camera and attached options at an economical price.
GY-HD250U can be quickly detached from the Sled and used as an ENG camera.
Flexibility of both hand held and tripod mounted operation.

Additional Information and Limitations
Additional Information
In the CP-301C system, there is no separate return video signal. The return video signal, providing it is genlocked, can be
applied to the CP-301C’s Genlock input. On the camera side, the Genlock signal can be used simultaneously as a Genlock
and a return video signal. When using the CP301C’s camera adapter’s Genlock signal for Genlock and for return video, the
signal must be an NTSC VBS.
Set GY-HD250U “TALLY SYSTEM” menu setting to “STUDIO”.
When using VF-HP840U set “VF SIGNAL” menu setting to “COMPONENT”.
Limitations
Maximum cable length is limited to 900m with RG11.
The Hybrid cable becomes very heavy as the cable length increases.
If the cable is abused, internal fiber or coax can be damaged. It is not as reliable and robust as the tactical fiber cable. In
the case that the optical fiber is damaged a spare fiber that is part of the cable can be substituted.
The CP-301C can pass an HD Tri level genlock signal, but the CP-701C can not pass an HD Tri level genlock signal.

Telecast Fiber:
Telecast Fiber also produces a fiber connected CCU. Their system consists of a Camera Adapter(Copper Head) , a Power
Module (Power Plus) connected to the GY-HD250U; a Hybrid Fiber Cable connects the Camera adapter to the Base Station
and an optional Power module. This Configuration can be operated with cable lengths of up to 2K meters

The Camera Adapter provides a signal interface between the camera and the two fibers inside the Hybrid Cable. The Power
module converts the 250V AC signal on the copper conductors inside the Hybrid cable to 12V Camera power. The two fibers
within the cable handle the signal transmission between the camera and the base station.
One fiber strand is dedicated to carrying the HD-SDI signal from the camera back to the base station.
The second fiber strand carries all of the other required signals between the camera adapter and the base station.
Key Features and Customer Benefit
Up to 150Watts of power is supplied to the studio camera and attached accessories.
Telecast Fiber system can pass a both a SD VBS or a HD Tri level sync Genlock signal.

located on the 26-pin connector board.
(a) S35: All switches must be set UP.
(b) S36: All switches must be set DOWN.
2- Adjustment
Re-adjustment of the transmit Voltage (refer to SM).
(a) VOLT ADJ 15V: adjust to 15VDC +/- 0.2V
(b) VOLT ADJ 17V: adjust to 16VDC +/- 0.2V
(c) VOLT ADJ 19V: adjust to 16VDC +/- 0.2V
Note 1: If the Voltage is not correct, the viewfinder may be damaged due to over heating.
Note 2: Receive Voltage at pin-A and pin-B of the 26-pin MUST be lower than 15V. If the voltage exceeds 15VDC,
adjustment of (a) “VOLT ADJ 17V” and (b) “VOLT ADJ 19V” must be re-adjusted from 16VDC to 15VDC.
