Using the Input and Output
Connectors
For information about installing the BKM-41HD/42HD in
the video monitor input option slots, see "Installing into
Video Monitors" on page 4(E).
Configuration of Input/Output Connectors
and Signals that may be Input
The above picture shows the BKM-42HD connectors. The
connectors numbered 3, 4 are not equipped with the
BKM-41HD.
The BKM-41HD/42HD HD SDI Input Adaptors are
the video signal input adaptors for Sony BVM-D and
HDM series video monitors.
When installed in the input option slots on the rear
panel of the video monitor, they provide video input/
output connectors for the monitor.

HD Serial Digital and Analog Input and
Output Signal Connectors
The BKM-41HD is equipped with one pair of input
and output connectors for serial digital signals, as well
as one pair of input and output connectors for analog
signals.
The BKM-42HD is equipped with two pairs of input
and output connectors for serial digital signals, as well
as one pair of input and output connectors for analog
signals.
On both the BKM-41HD and BKM-42HD, you can
input one Y/P
B/PR or one GBR signal using the analog
input connectors.
Available Signal Format (HD serial digital
input)
The following signal formats can be input to the HD
SDI connector of the above models. The frame rate of
the signal formats are also compatible with
1
/1.001.
• 1080/24PsF
1)
• 1080/50I
• 1035/60I
2)
• 1080/60I
2)
• 720/60P
Note
To have access to all of the above signal formats for
the BVM-D20F1U/D24E1WU monitor, use the BKM-
41HD/42HD with a serial number from 2600001 to
2610000.
1)
When the 1080/24PsF signal format is input, the monitor
scanning mode is the 48 interlace (1080/48I).
2)
When the BKM-41HD or BKM-42HD are used for the HDM-
14E1, HDM-14E5, HDM-20E1 series monitor, only the 1035/
60I and 1080/60I signal formats are available.
The configuration of the input and output connectors
and the signals that may be input are shown below.
Input of HD serial digital signals
You can input HD serial digital signals to connectors
1 and 3. You can obtain active loop-through output
of each input from connectors 2 and 4 respectively.
You need not attach 75-ohm terminators to connectors
2 and 4.
