Setting Up a System
There are two basic ways in which SHED and HDX units can be used to augment your HD
camera systems, and both concern how the camera is ultimately powered.
Passive Set-up - SHED-BS and SHED-C
In a Passive set-up, a SHED-BS is connected to a SHED-C with two singlemode fibers
(
Figure 2-1 ). In this configuration, the camera head must be locally powered via a battery or
a suitable local power supply.

Active Set-up - SHED-BS and HDX
In an Active configuration, a SHED-BS is connected to an HDX via two singlemode fibers
and the HDX supplies power to the camera through up to 100m of SMPTE Hybrid Cable
(
Figure 2-2 ).
