Precision Video Transmission for Demanding EnvironmentsBELDEN 4694P is meticulously crafted for professional broadcasting, post-production, and HDTV installations. Its low capacitance of 16.2 pF/ft and minimal attenuation-4.0 dB/100m at 1 GHz and 7.1 dB/100m at 3 GHz-ensure crystal-clear, high-definition signal transmission over long distances. The cable's rugged dual shielding and gas-injected foam HDPE insulation provide superior electromagnetic protection, maintaining signal quality even in complex indoor environments.
Engineered for Flexibility and DurabilityWith a robust PVC jacket and a minimum bend radius of 7.6 cm, the BELDEN 4694P combines flexibility with durability for easy handling during complex installations. Its 305-meter reel supports extensive runs without signal loss, while features like footage marking, 50 lbs maximum pulling tension, and a 19.6 Ohm/km resistance enhance workflow efficiency and performance in professional settings.
FAQ's of BELDEN 4694P:
Q: How is the BELDEN 4694P cable typically used in broadcast and professional video environments?
A: The BELDEN 4694P cable is primarily designed for transporting high-definition serial digital interface (SDI) signals in broadcast studios, television production, post-production facilities, and satellite uplinks. Its low attenuation and high signal integrity make it ideal for 3G/HD/SD-SDI transmission, ensuring optimal performance in demanding indoor environments.
Q: What advantages does BELDEN 4694P offer compared to standard coaxial cables for HD video?
A: BELDEN 4694P stands out due to its very low capacitance, high precision, and dual shielding, resulting in maximum signal integrity and reduced signal loss. Its sweep-tested frequency up to 4.5 GHz and compliance with SMPTE 424M, 292M, and 259M-C standards guarantee reliable high-definition video transmission, making it superior for professional use.
Q: When should I select BELDEN 4694P over other coaxial video cables?
A: Choose BELDEN 4694P when your installation requires high-definition video signal transmission over significant distances, minimal attenuation, and compliance with professional standards. It is especially recommended for HDTV facilities, demanding post-production applications, and anywhere top-grade SDI transmission is required.
Q: Where can the BELDEN 4694P cable be installed?
A: This cable is intended for indoor use, such as broadcast studios, control rooms, video production facilities, and similar environments. Its robust construction ensures reliable performance in professional indoor settings, but it is not rated for outdoor or direct burial installations.
Q: What is the process for installing BELDEN 4694P to ensure signal integrity?
A: During installation, keep within the minimum bend radius of 7.6 cm and the maximum pulling tension of 50 lbs to preserve cable structure and performance. Use the footage markings to measure runs accurately, and ensure cable ends are properly terminated with compatible connectors designed for 75 Ohm impedance systems.
Q: How does the cable's construction benefit signal quality and durability?
A: The solid bare copper conductor, dual shielding (aluminum foil plus tinned copper braid), and gas-injected foam HDPE insulation minimize signal loss, electromagnetic interference, and electrical resistance. This engineering ensures consistent, high-fidelity video signals and long-term cable durability in professional applications.
