As of May 8, 2012

BRU-SF10

1. Single mode fiber cable supported

The BRU-SF10 supports single mode optical fiber cable ensuring 2,000m transmission at maximum.

2. Status display on the front panel

The following various status displays are newly added on the front panel of the BRU-SF10 to increase its usability.

- 1080i/720p, 59.94/50, RS-232C/422, 9600/38400bps

- Camera ID : 1~7

3. Monitor output

By inserting the BRBK-HSD2, the HD/SD-SDI output card into optional card slot, the BRU-SF10 enables monitor
output. By terming off data mix, it enables various camera settings without displaying OSD on video out signal (main
line).

4. Uncompressed digital transmission

The BRU-SF10 features uncompressed multiple signal operation via a single cable. Video, sync, pan/tilt control,
camera control signal and audio line-in signal can be transmitted using with the CCFC-S200, single mode optical fiber
cable and the BRBK-SF1, HD optical multiplex card. The distance between the BRU-SF10 and the BRC-Z330/-H900
can be extended to a maximum 2,000m (6,560 feet). The Single cable operation makes it possible to integrate the
camera system easily.

5. Variety of video signal output

The BRU-SF10 is equipped with analog RGB or Y/Pb/Pr signal output as standard. Furthermore, 2 built-in optional

card slots enable to provide various signals in order to broaden the range of applications. For instance, HD-SDI signal
can be provided when installing the BRBK-HSD2 into the card slot. Two same kinds of cards can be installed into the
BRU-SF10 at the same time.

6. External sync signal input/output equipped

When multiple BRC-Z330 or BRC-H900 HD cameras or combination of BRC-Z330 and BRC-H900 HD cameras are
connected via the Optical Fiber Cable, the video signal can be synchronized by inputting the sync signal into the
external sync input connector.

7. Audio line output connectors (phono jacks, L/R) equipped

The BRU-SF10 allows output of stereo audio line signals that are transmitted from the BRBK-SF1 HD Optical
Multiplex Card inserted into the BRC-Z330/-H900 HD camera.

8. RS-232C/RS-422 serial control by VISCA™

All of camera and pan/tilt functions can be controlled via VISCA commands with a remote controller or a PC. This
unit incorporates the VISCA Mini DIN 8pin connectors for RS-232C control between BRU-SF10 and
BRC-Z330/-H900. Additionally, the dedicated 9pin connector is incorporated for RS-422 control from far location.
While the RS-232C is extended up to 15m (50feet) officially, the RS-422 is up to approximately 1.2km (4,000feet).
The data transmission speed of the RS-422 and the RS-232C can be selected either 9600bps or 38400bps.

BRBK-SA1

Analog SD output card

The BRBK-SA1 enables down convert to analog SD output signal when installed into the BRU-SF10 built-in card slot.
This can be used as an optional card for the BRC-Z330/-H900*.

*Note: Although the BRBK-SA1 can be used with the BRC-Z330/1, in case of using with previous version of the
BRC-Z330, it requires version upgrade.

BRBK-HSD2

HD/SD-SDI output card

The BRBK-HSD2 provides HD-SDI signal when installed into the BRU-SF10 built-in card slot. By turning off data
mix, it enables various camera settings without displaying OSD on video out signal (main line). This can be used as an
optional card for the BRC-Z330*/-H900.

Note 1: Although the BRBK-HSD2 can be used with the BRC-Z330/1, in case of using with previous version of the
BRC-Z330, it requires version upgrade.

BRBK-SF1

1. HD optical multiplex card

The BRBK-SF1 provides high quality optical multiplex HD signal and audio line-in signal when installed into the
BRC-Z330* /-H900 built-in card slot.

Note: Although the BRBK-SF1 can be used with the BRC-Z330/1, in case of using with previous version of the
BRC-Z330, it requires version upgrade.

2. Audio line input

The BRBK-SF1 is equipped with phono jack for Audio input. By installing the BRBK-SF1 into the BRC-Z330/-H900,
image signal of the BRC-Z330/-H900 and analog audio signal received by the BRBK-SF1 can be simultaneously
transferred to the BRU-SF10 via single mode optical fiber cable. This is effective when a microphone is set near
the BRC-Z330/-H900 located in distant place while the BRU-SF10 located by an operator who needs both image and
audio at the same time.

CCFC-S200

Single mode optical fiber cable

The CCFC-S200 is a single mode optical fiber cable for connecting the BRC-Z330/-H900 (with BRBK-SF1) to the
BRU-SF10. The CCFC-S200 can transmit uncompressed digital data without any deterioration. It can be extended up
to 2000m (6,560 feet) using with supplied cable extension adaptor.
