LDK 4502 HD Triax Base Station

Our new modular triax base station—which is compatible with Grass Valley C2IP camera control system components—comes in a 2 RU chassis yet still provides the quality and functionality you expect from high-quality broadcast products. The LDK 4502 is based on our advanced triax HD transmission system. The unit itself and the camera attached to it are compatible with industry-standard triax cables, enabling you to reuse your existing, valuable, reliable cables.

Key Features
  • Compact 2 RU high, 19-inch base unit
  • Modular design ensures flexibility
  • HD and optional simultaneous high-quality SD outputs
  • Teleprompting signal handling
  • Compatible with Grass Valley C2IP camera control system components
