Camera & Video Interfaces for Broadcast, AV Production and Event
Regardless of if we are talking about sport arenas or concert halls: very often the challenge is to deal with preinstalled cabling infrastructure that already does exist but was not designed for the current video standards or it can’ be used at all.
In the last years, we have launched a couple of different new key elements that allow system integrators to use different cameras and different transmission systems to build a very flexible video system in such environments.
Issues that we can solve:
Providing Power and Control into situations where no local power supply is available:
With our TL8656 video interface, we can connect block cameras to a 3G-SDI infrastructure. This interface allows to use the connected coax cable for three domains:
Video transmission
Camera Control
Sourcing the block camera and the video interface with power
Video transmission and Camera control over large distances
With our TL7075/76 fibre solution, we can integrate block cameras into 3G-SDI systems through a fiber connection. This solution offers video transmission and a bidirectional control channel within one fibre cable.
Using UHD block cameras in a 3G-SDI infrastructure
UHD Block Cameras require at least a 6G-SDI infrastructure (2160p25/30). In many situations, the existing cabling infrastructure was designed for FullHD cameras (3G-SDI). With our TL4K1161 and TL4K1171 interfaces, we can support 6G-SDI output (compliant to SMPTE ST2081-10 MODE 1 mapping) but also Dual Link 3G-SDI output (compliant to SMPTE ST425-3, 2si mapping). This allows using 3G-SDI cabling infrastructure for UHD cameras with frame rates up to 30 fps.
The AIVION TL8656 outputs serial digital video (SDI) up to 1080p60 with Power and Control over Coaxial Cable and an external Trigger. It connects to the digital video interface of the block cameras and supports several progressive and interlace HDTV formats. Features: One 3G-SDI/HD-SDI Output Right angle DIN7A connector 3G-SDI output compliant to SMPTE 424M level A HD-SDI output compliant to SMPTE 292M 1080p60 /59.94 /50 /30 /29.97 /25 Hz 1080i60 /59.94 /50 Hz 720p60 /59.94 /50 /30 /29.97 /25Hz Board Side Mount The TL8656 video interface board can be mounted directly to the side of the camera module and the interface board form factor is optimal adjusted to the dimensions of the Tamron cameras.

Compact size block camera with 30x enhanced optical zoom and a 1/1.8 sensor. This Full HD model with LVDS output is optimal for environments with harsh conditions. The new super image stabilizer has greatly improved blur suppression compared to conventional models. Sony FCB-EV9500L Features Full HD (1080p/60) LVDS 30x Enhanced Optical Zoom High Sensitivity Super Image Stabilizer Flare reduction with the new iris Color image acquisition during ICR ON Spot Focus · Spot AE · Spot AWB Wide Dynamic Range (Wide-D) Visibility Enhancer (VE) Datasheet Sony FCB-9500 Series Overview Features FCB-EV9500L High Resolution Utilizing a 4M sensor and sharp lens achieve superior resolution and accurate image representation with the evolved AF/AE/ AWB functions even in low light environments. Combined with enhanced optical zoom achieve a high image quality from the Wide end to the Tele end. High Sensitivity Through introduction of new cell structures and circuit technology, the series efficiently uses light, achieving twice the sensitivity compared to conventional image sensors. Consequently, clear images can be captured even during the night and in dark environments. Super Image Stabilizer Enables capturing of highly precise video with reduced blurring even in harsh environments with strong vibrations by greatly improving blur suppression and image stabilizer. The camera is during full HD or HD output equipped with the Super and Super modes. Applying a wide correction area using 4M pixels the camera series suppresses blurs from strong vibrations and rotational vibrations compared to conventional models. Super Suppresses strong vibrations with a wider correction area compared to conventional electronic vibration suppressors. Super + By employing a wider correction area than “Super,” “Super+” suppresses intense vibrations that cannot be suppressed with “Super.” Potential application: Shipboard, attachments for ITS surveillance, on bridges, drones, vehicles, etc. Starvis 1/1.8-type CMOS sensor The Sony FCB-EV9500L Sony blockcamera is equipped with an approximately 417 million- effective-pixel, 1/1.8-type high sensitive, AR-coated (anti-reflective coating) CMOS sensor. With a high spectral sensitivity value in near infrared to infrared, it is especially effective for security uses. Furthermore, the AR coating minimizes the ghost phenomenon and enables capturing of images without missing crucial information even during the night and in dark environments. 30x Enhanced Optical Zoom Using a compact lens designed for resolutions up to 8M the camera maximizes the coverage of the 4M sensor. The newly designed lens provides high resolution and low aberration, making it capable of capturing high resolution images that span from the Tele end from the screen center to the surrounding edges. There is no image deterioration using the 30x enhanced optical zoom. Experience full sharpness and dramatically reduced chromatic aberration in full HD output and also achieve images with sharp resolution during 4M output. Flare reduction with the new iris Diamond flares and ghosts that occur on lenses disrupts focusing and deteriorates the image quality. The new lens adopts 7 blades compared to the conventional 2 blades, improving this phenomenon by generating fine circular flares, and thus greatly improving image quality. Color image acquisition during ICR ON On conventional models, only black and white images are achieved while the IR cut filter was removed. The new ICR ON COLOR function enables the camera to capture shots with color even when the IR cut filter is removed. It is effective for color visibility in dark environments. The precision of color reproduction varies depending on the light source and brightness. Spot Focus · Spot AE · Spot AWB Enables functioning of AF, AE, and AWB only in specified areas within the screen. Enables independent specification of any rectangle of the entire screen divided in 6 x 8. For example, if the subject location is specified with Spot AE, enables capturing of images with Exposure effects reduced even if brightness changes occur outside the specified frame. Adjustable ROIs Screen divided in 6 x 8 Wide Dynamic Range (Wide-D) Wide-D mode is a function for dividing an image into several blocks for correcting blocked-up shadows and blown-out highlights in accordance with the intensity difference. It enables image acquisition in which portions ranging from dark to light can be recognized, even when capturing a subject with a large intensity difference that is backlit or includes extremely light regions of interest.

It enables image acquisition in which portions ranging from dark to light can be recognized, even when capturing a subject with a large intensity difference that is backlit or includes extremely light regions of interest.
