Overview
The HXCU-D70 Camera Control Unit (CCU) connects to the
Sony HXC-D70 HD Color Camera. It performs signal
processing, provides an interface for external equipment, and
supplies power to the camera.
The CCU can be combined with an RCP-1000-series Remote
Control Panel (optional) to form a camera control system.
Features
The HXCU-D70 can be connected with a single
multi-core cable
A camera control system with the HXC-D70 high resolution
HD color camera can be built up using just one Sony-standard
multi-core cable (CCZ-A).
Easy-to-use control panel
The HXCU-D70 has a fully-functional, ergonomically-
designed front panel that includes basic adjustment of the
monitor image.

External sync signal input
The CCU can be locked to an external sync signal. Either an
HD tri-level sync signal or an SD sync (black burst) signal can
be used as the sync signal.
Low-loss digital transmission via multi-core
cable
The camera unit can be connected with the Sony-standard
multi-core camera cable (CCZ-A). The camera and CCU are
equipped with the latest Sony-developed digital transmission
technology to transmit high-resolution pictures between one
another, regardless of the cable length.
Built-in wideband down converter
HD signals from the camera can be converted to high-
resolution SD component SDI output signals using the
wideband down converter. The output signal aspect ratio can
be set to 4:3 edge crop, 16:9 squeeze, or letterbox.
Rack mountable
The CCU can be installed in a standard EIA 19-inch rack. The
height of the unit is 1.5U.
