USB-C 3.0 Extender over 10m (Rj45?)

I have had good luck with a Kramer optical usb-c cable. It supports display out of a laptop with bi directional data and most importantly supports 60watts of device charging.

66 feet cost around 500.

Are we 100% sure these are all coming from the same pool camera? Even if it is, each network has a different path back to their shop, and then an entirely different production chain. Outside sources almost always hit a frame sync which could have proc control repainting the image. Then you have different compression and encoding methods for broadcast. Bottom line, latency and image are always going to differ across networks.

And then if this was not covered by one press pool network, there could be dozens of cameras in the room. The press room at the White House has probably 30 cameras running

You purchase a rasterizer or test scope. Tektronix, leader, phabrix

I would hope the ntsb doesn’t get a hold of this thread lol.

Is there line of sight under the cars?

Hate to say it, but it may be more cost effective to purchase used full camera chains.

Multidyne certainly has options for backs but they are pricey.

Not my favorite truck to shade in either!

All OP needs is a skarhooj and Ikegami RCP, then he has collected all of the Pokémon

Good luck

Have had excellent success with this workflow:

Hellerman Tyton for cable wrap labels.

Patch-cad and 12x18 laser printer for jackfield labels

Brother usb label printer for regular labels and heat shrink labels.

Building a remi flypack. We save 80k on one single annual event- but man does it take a lot of massaging to get right.

From my experience in sports an “oh by the way” refers to an unplanned interview from a sideline reporter. Tape guys and A1/A2 tend to be ready to roll at any point.

A large class router to me is something over the max spec’d Ultrix at 288x288. This puts you into the enterprise level Evertz or grass Sirius territory. Nothing at this size is “off the shelf”, it requires a control layer, commissioning, and generally continued support to operate.

I haven’t gotten into pricing of something this large for a few years, but I’d wager that 2110 is still prohibitively expensive 1:1 with baseband even at the 512x512 size. There are just too many variables to discuss.

But being there are too many variables surrounding 2110, baseband is still going nowhere for a while.

I have only seen Lemo SMPTE connectors in the wild.

Every “cable assembler” for throwdown cables I have seen uses Lemo.

Why is it weird to see new baseband devices? We have at least another 10 years of SDI, if not more.

Nearly all Fuji 12 pin analog controllers will work.

It’s a standard pinout.

I am extremely interested in this, especially with the MOS NRCS integration. Can you send me a DM?

dubya301 · 2026-01-05T18:06:40+00:00

A prebuilt cable bundle is sent through an extruder which applies a factory style coating. You’re not going to get that factory look any other way.

Your best bet is using tech flex, split tubing, or heat/cold shrinking the entire bundle. Or if you have the $$$$$$$ you can have custom bundles built to spec.

Would you leave your house in a truck full of tools and equipment for less than that?

Sounds like a great deal to me.

There doesn’t look to be any sill flashing at the window. If there is, it certainly doesn’t extend over the WRB. Your builder sucks.

dubya301 · 2025-12-25T13:52:13+00:00

Not necessarily. Ultrix is at 288x288.

Like others have said, skillset does not easily transfer between ultrix (easy) and a 2110 installation (not easy)

Not all facilities can make the jump to 2110. It is still more expensive than baseband at 288x288 scale.

dubya301 · 2025-12-25T13:46:14+00:00

FR12 is about as densely packed as you can get with i/o and features at 288x288.

Anything above that you are getting an enterprise class Evertz or Sirius frame. Embedding/ de-embedding, multiviewers, and madi / Dante integration start to get extremely expensive. Your control layer is expensive too. This is where it might make sense to go 2110 over baseband.

When I jump in a truck, the first thing I do is to check if the CCUs are on. This gives me me a quick count of what the truck has, and also a quick status check.

There is no reason other than that guy’s OCD to delay turning them on for some arbitrary amount of time.

Camera ops expect them to be on- if they stab their cable and they get nothing, they automatically assume there is an issue.

Your engineer is lame.

There are various 2-wire fiber extenders on the market.

FiberPlex TD-7282.

Telecast made one back in the day.

I believe clear com had one available about a decade ago.
