≥It enab es high picture qua ity transmission by means of non-compressed wide-band 360 Mbps seria component signas.
≥It uses a tri-axia cab e.
≥It enab es a DVCPRO camera recorder to be operated as a system camera.
≥It enab es transmission up to 2000 meters when three AJ-RP900P Repeaters are used. (*1)
≥It enab es the transmission of the signa s of two audio channe s.
≥It enab es RET 1CH and PROMPT 1CH transmission.
≥It can easi y be insta ed in, or detached from, the camera recorder using the spacer.
≥Its TRIAX connector area can be rotated for easy operation.

Features
*1 The unit’s power supp y is subject to some restrictions. Refer to the Instruction Manua of the repeater when configuring the system.
Thank you very much for purchasing this AJ-CA900P Camera Adapter (referred to throughout these instructions as “the unit”).
The unit is insta ed in a DVCPRO or DVCPRO50 camera recorder to configure a transmission system which uses a tri-axia cab e to
enab e the camera recorder to be operated as a system camera.
Use of non-compressed wide-band 360 Mbps seria component signa s makes high picture qua ity transmission possib e so that the
high picture qua ity of the images shot by the DVCPRO camera recorder are transmitted with their high picture qua ity kept intact.
This serves to expand the range of the DVCPRO camera recorder’s operating formats.
Note:
≥When the unit is connected, external input signals cannot be recorded on tape inside the camera
recorder.“CAM” must be selected as the REC SIGNAL setting on the REC/PB/RET menu of the
camera recorder.
≥When using an external power supply (DC 12 V) for the unit, always turn the main power switch of
the base station (AJ-BS900P) ON before turning the power switch of the camera recorder ON.
