Seamless Integration into Current

VTR-Based Systems

In order to achieve seamless integration into current

tape-based systems, a great deal of thought has been put

into the development of Sony XDCAM products. A range of

conventional AV interfaces including SDI, analog composite,

analog/digital audio I/Os and RS-422A 9-pin remote

interface allow easy connectivity to current equipment,

including a wide variety of VTRs, linear and nonlinear

editors, and audio mixers. In addition, XDCAM products

offer network-based interoperability with other Sony

network-capable equipment, such as the MPEG IMX e-VTR,

establishing a highly effective and advanced system. And,

because operability is another key concern when investing

in new equipment, Sony has paid special attention to this

too, allowing operation that is best suited to optical media

while retaining the feel of conventional VTR-based

products.

Easy and Low-cost Maintenance

From the outset, Sony XDCAM Series of products have been

designed using the best concurrent engineering practices,

answering maintenance issues before they even arise.

Moving parts have been minimized, as have the number of

parts requiring periodic replacement. This results in a drastic

reduction in maintenance labor, and promotes more

efficient use of your equipment.

Sony XDCAM products* are also compatible with Sony

remote maintenance and monitoring software – an

SNMP-compliant application that can monitor and log the

hardware's status in real time via an Ethernet network. If a

malfunction is detected, this system can immediately

identify the problem, allowing you to take corrective

action. Not only is the system reactive, it proactively

monitors your systems and

identifies maintenance

needs in a timely

manner too.

require an optional Ethernet

(100Base-TX) Adaptor

(CBK-NC01).

High Durability and Reliability

In harsh working environments, it is of critical importance that

hardware is tolerant to shock and vibration during

important shoots. Sony's accumulated knowledge about

the tough criteria for such environments, together with

years of experience meeting these criteria, contribute

greatly to the high reliability of Sony XDCAM products.

The Sony XDCAM camcorders use rubber dampers to hold

the disc drive block in place thereby minimizing the effect of

any shock or vibration. In addition, a powerful tracking system,

based on the best Sony servo technologies, reduces the

chance of the optical head recording off track. In the

event a shock exceeds the servo's capacity, causing the

head to be positioned incorrectly, a buffer memory is

available to help prevent off-track recordings.The buffer

serves in such a way that recording to the disc will not occur

until the optical head returns to its correct position. After

the head is properly positioned, the buffered information is

recorded to the disc, thereby helping to prevent interruptions

in the recording. A substantial amount of buffering has been

built into the camcorder to accommodate large off-track

errors.

In addition, in the event of an abnormal recording, powerful

ECC (Error Correction Code) and sophisticated

concealment techniques are available on all machines so

that discs can be played back appropriately.
