Note
f“SLOT NX” is a name of the slot unique to Panasonic Connect Co., Ltd. supporting the signal
input for the 4K image.
fThe video signal that can actually display will vary depending on the projector that the
Interface Board is installed. For details, refer to the Operating Instructions of your projector.
fWhen the projector is in the standby state, signals are not output from the <SDI 2 IN/1 OUT>
terminal and <SDI 4 IN/3 OUT> terminal.
fTo ensure images are transmitted correctly, use 5C-FB or higher (5C-FB, 7C-FB, etc.), Belden
1694A or higher, or Canare Electric L-5.5CUHD for the connection cable. Furthermore, the
maximum lengths of cables that can be used are as follows. However, these maximum cable
lengths are provided as a guide, and are not a guarantee of transmission distances.
gSD-SDI signal, HD-SDI signal, and 3G-SDI signal: 150 m
g6G-SDI signal: 80 m (110 m if L-5.5CUHD is used.)
gWhen 12G-SDI, di󰀨ers depending on the setting of [Display Options] menu → [SLOT IN] →
[SDI Mode] of the projector.
When [SDI Mode] is set to [Input], 50 m (100 m if L-5.5CUHD is used.)
When [SDI Mode] is set to [Output], 50 m (90 m if L-5.5CUHD is used.)
fWhen [Display Options] menu → [SLOT IN] → [SDI Mode] of the projector is set to [Output],
attach a terminating resistor (75 Ω) to the terminal to which a device is not connected as an
output destination.
fFor the BNC connector of the connection cable, use one that supports the coaxial cable and
types of signal to be used.
