Bluebell Opticom strengthens portfolio with a trio of new products. The launch of the BC780, BC785T and BC785R optical conversion products were directly attributed to requirements from customers who are moving to remote production in these challenging COVID times where they needed to have Ethernet Control, RS232/422/485, Tally and genlock between cameras and the OB truck.
   

Paul McCann, Managing Director of Bluebell commented «We are pleased to add another useful can-opener to our product range with this series. Now that POV cameras produce images which equal to any traditional production camera, they need control, serial data and sync for Pan, Tilt, Zoom and Iris control».

Enter Bluebell’s BC785! It does exactly that - Ethernet Control, RS232/422/485 and Tally with Black/Burst or Tri-Level Sync all over one Singlemode Fibre. And if you do not need Genlock, there is the BC780.

These cards can be used on their own, in a rack frame, incorporated into our Ultra-portable Silhouette range or built into a camera-specific pedestal.

The combination of robotic cameras and Bluebell fibre converter solutions allow remote video production away from the event in a safe environment where social distancing, warmth, air conditioning and coffee are the norm.”
