    Description
    SMPTE 311M standard is the global benchmark for broadcast camera triax replacement. This Hybrid Fiber Optic Cable combines the immense bandwidth of fiber optics with the practical need for electrical power and control signals in a single, robust jacket. By integrating single-mode optical fibers, multi-mode optical fibers, and copper power conductors, it delivers superior performance over long distances without signal degradation. The inclusion of a protective metal reel guarantees that your critical cable is stored, transported, and deployed safely, significantly extending its operational lifespan and protecting your investment.

    Key Features & Technical Advantages
    ● Broadcast-Grade Compliance: Fully meets the SMPTE 311M standard, ensuring seamless compatibility with a wide range of broadcast cameras and base station equipment from major manufacturers.
    ● Hybrid, All-in-One Design: Combines fiber optics for HD-SDI/4K video, audio, and data signals with copper conductors for camera power and control, drastically reducing cable bulk and setup time.
    ● Superior Signal Integrity: Leverages fiber optic technology for immunity to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio-frequency interference (RFI), enabling flawless signal transmission over extended distances.
    ● Rugged & Durable Construction: Built to withstand the rigors of field production, featuring a tough, abrasion-resistant outer jacket that protects against moisture, crushing, and frequent handling.
    ● Protective Metal Reel: The heavy-duty metal reel prevents cable tangles and kinks, provides a professional and organized storage solution, and ensures easy, tangle-free payout and rewind on location.
    ● Long-Distance Performance: Enables camera placement hundreds of meters from the control room without the need for signal repeaters, offering unparalleled flexibility in production setup.

    Primary Applications & Use Cases
    ● This versatile cable is the ideal choice for a multitude of professional broadcast and production scenarios:
    ● Outside Broadcast Vans (OB Vans): The essential backbone for connecting remote cameras to the production hub inside the van.
    ● Live Event Production: Perfect for sports broadcasts, concerts, news coverage, and corporate events where reliability is non-negotiable.
    ● Studio and Field Production: Provides a robust and high-performance link for both controlled studio environments and challenging outdoor locations.
    ● Television and Film Production: Used by professional crews requiring the highest quality signal for television shows and film projects.
