The SMPTE 304 and SMPTE 311 standards define a type of connector and cable, respectively, for use in the connection between the camera and the CCU for broadcasting and high definition professional video, combining electrical and optical signals (copper and fiber). Designed for high-definition (HD) cameras, these composite cables can multiplex audio signals and video signals and deliver power. Extremely rugged and reliable, the connectors are comprised of the heaviest gauge stainless steel available on the market. They also feature a low-loss Telcordia® GR-326 fiber-optic end face geometry, perfect for today’s most demanding cinematic and broadcast productions. With industry-standard options such as a quick disconnect push/pull self-latching system and ARIB/EBU and ANSI/SMPTE compliancy, the SMPTE 304 Connectors are among the highest-performance options on the market.

The composition of our SMPTE 304/311 camera cable assemblies make them perfect for use in broadcast trucks and studios and at sports stadiums. The steel construction provides the durability necessary for continuous use in the field, while the fiber optic connectivity interfaces with today’s digital cameras. Both of these features put Major Custom Cable’s SMPTE 304 connectors at the top of their class.
