  • Patent number: 9011023
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved installation for conveying electrical signals carried by a first triaxial cable (2) to a second triaxial cable (6) and vice versa. It comprises: a first interface (3) between the first triaxial cable (2) and a fiber optic cable (4) and a second interface (5) between the fiber optic cable (4) and the second triaxial cable (6). A television camera (7) is connected to a remote camera control unit (1) via this installation. The first triaxial cable (2) connects the camera control unit (1) with the first interface (3). The first interface (3) comprises a first adapter converting electrical signals, conveyed by the first triaxial cable (2), to optical signals. The fiber optic cable (4) transmits optical signals to the second interface (5). The second interface (5) comprises a second adapter converting optical signals to electrical signals. The second triaxial cable (6) transmits the electrical signals to the television camera (7).

  • Patent number: 8941746
    Abstract: Adapter (3, 5) for processing electrical signals in an installation comprising a video camera equipment (1) and a remote equipment (7). A first aim of the present invention is to provide an adapter system which allows automatically providing an output video signal that is co-timed to the master timing reference of the remote equipment. A second aim of the invention is to provide an adapter system which improves the security of the installation when power for the camera is transmitted by the remote equipment.

  • Patent number: 7889994
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an installation for conveying electrical signals carried by a first triaxial cable (1) to a second triaxial cable (18). It comprises: a first interface (15) between the first triaxial cable (1) and a fiber optic cable (9) and a second interface (16) between the fiber optic (9) cable and the second triaxial cable (18). A television camera (17) is connected to a remote camera control unit (14) via this installation. The first triaxial cable (1) connects CCU (14) with the interface (15). The interface (15) comprises an adapter converting electrical signals, conveyed by the triaxial cable (1), to optical signals. The fiber optic cable (9) transmits optical signals to the second interface (16). The interface (16) comprises an adapter converting optical signals to electrical signals. The second triaxial cable (18) transmits the electrical signals to the television camera (17). A mirror image of the adapters allows transmitting electrical signals from the camera (17) to the CCU (14).
