Camera fiber systems
EFP to Fiber for Panasonic Camera Systems
Built around the Panasonic RCU: camera control, de-embedded audio and power travel with the video on one hybrid cable.

What this system does
- +Panasonic RCU control carried over fiber, so the existing remote control panel keeps working.
- +Audio de-embedded from the SDI stream and returned on the link.
- +Lemo 3K.93C hybrid fiber interface.
- +Remote power supply from the base station.
- +SDI path from HD through 4K/12G-SDI depending on the camera body.
- +Rack base station for truck or control room installation.
Interfaces and configuration
| Video | SDI from the camera head, HD through 4K/12G-SDI |
|---|---|
| Camera control | Panasonic RCU over fiber |
| Audio | De-embedded from SDI |
| Optical interface | Lemo 3K.93C hybrid fiber |
| Power | Remote power from base station to camera adaptor |
| Form factor | Camera adaptor plus rack base station |
This is the interface list we build to, not a performance claim. When a number has to go into a drawing or a tender, ask for the datasheet for the exact configuration.
Buyer questions
Which Panasonic control units work with this adaptor?
The adaptor is built around the Panasonic RCU remote-control interface, which is the control path used by Panasonic studio and EFP camera chains. Tell us the camera body and control unit you are using and we will confirm the pinout before shipping.
Is audio carried separately or taken from the video?
Audio is de-embedded from the SDI stream and returned across the link, so no extra audio cable is needed at the camera head.
Can this be used with a camera that is already on a fiber chain?
It can be added as a second stage when you need to extend an existing chain or split a camera feed to a second position, but configuration depends on the current signal layout. Send the signal list and we will map it.
