MultiDyne Silverback II Camera Mountable Fiber Optic System for HD/SDI Camcorders *DEMO*

The MultiDyne SilverBack–II provides a full complement of bi–directional signals for almost any digital camcorder on the market today. These include camera systems from GVG, Hitachi, Ikegami, Panasonic and Sony!

Starting with the case itself, every aspect of the new Silverback has been refined to keep overall size and weight as small as possible without sacrificing performance or operability. Each unit is milled from a block of aluminum and the result is a fiber transceiver that becomes a seemless part of your camera without angles and sharp corners. The display uses high–intensity blue LEDs that are easy for the operator to see, but not intrusive.

But as beautiful as the exterior design is, the elegance is on the inside. Inside is all the signal transport you need for video acquisition without compromises. Do you prefer a color LCD viewfinder? The return HD/SD signal is there. Do you like to have a program earpiece for your stage manager? Do you need timecode for recording in the camera? How about extra data? It’s all in there!

The receiver is a 1RU, third–rack enclosure with LED status indicators for each signal. You will love the size, weight, signal quality and cost savings.

The control panel’s simple interface lets the camera operator easily monitor system link and signal status via a backlit blue-LED display. Soft-touch buttons permit easy adjustment of audio and intercom levels.  Two mic inputs’ pre-amps and phantom power are controlled via convenient soft switches and the levels are easily monitored with VU meters.

The operator can trigger the intercom mic via a local toggle switch or via an external switch or button.
Five standard, full size BNCs allow connection from the camera’s HD/SDI output, as well as return HD/SDI (3G) and genlock/sync.  Two XLR3-F allow for mic/line level inputs, with a 5-pin XLR for intercom headset and a 3.5mm headset jack also available for Program/IFB to the operator or Talent.
