The AK-HUC01 is an optional kit that can output high-quality 4K video signals with a horizontal and vertical resolution of 2,000 TV lines through the AK-HC3900 system. During use, the 4K Optical Low Pass Filter is attached to the AK-HC3900 and the 4K Output Board is attached to the AK-HCU250 Camera Control Unit (CCU).
In addition, connecting to an AK-HCU250 Camera Control Unit (CCU) fitted with a 4K output board enables support for various output interfaces, such as 12G-SDI output and 3G-SDI Quad Link output, in addition to the HD-SDI output mounted on the CCU unit.
