HUT-APE
Extend camera chains beyond SMPTE cable limitations via standard single mode fiber. The HUT-APE system frees camera chains from the limitations of hybrid copper and fiber cabling permitting cameras to be separated from their CCUs by distances of over 10km using inexpensive, conventional single mode fiber. This has many advantages over SMPTE hybrid cable including:
- Eliminating RF, EMI and grounding issues
- Faster set and strike times saves time and money
- Reduced weight makes for lighter OB trucks, B-units and cable shipments
