Video Input Connector
Note
This page includes information regarding both the original Makito X1 chassis and the Makito X1 chassis v2. The Network connector and DC IN/IO connector on v2 have been changed in order to meet higher vibration requirements.
The Makito X1 Rugged video encoder supports a single video input. The port marked CVBS/SDI can support up to 3G-SDI or analog video (NTSC/PAL).
- SDI is governed by SMPTE 259M (SD-SDI), 292M (HD-SDI) and 424M (3G-SDI) standards. Each coaxial pin is 75ohm impedance (3-GHz bandwidth).
- Composite video allows for NTSC and PAL input signals among others.
The requirements for external cable assemblies are as follows (assuming the customer wants to avoid water immersion on them):
BNC Coaxial Cable Assemblies
The cable assemblies must be waterproof. We recommend using waterproof compression type BNC connectors for better reliability and mechanical properties. We suggest use of a connector such as the Belden p/n FSNS6BNCU with a cable retention force of 40 lbs. per SCTE IPS SP401.
The input impedance must be 75 Ohms.
Note
We recommend that you keep the protective cap on any unused video connectors.
