Abstract
The present invention relates to an installation for conveying electrical signals carried by a first triaxial cable (1) to a second triaxial cable (18). It comprises: a first interface (15) between the first triaxial cable (1) and a fiber optic cable (9) and a second interface (16) between the fiber optic (9) cable and the second triaxial cable (18). A television camera (17) is connected to a remote camera control unit (14) via this installation. The first triaxial cable (1) connects CCU (14) with the interface (15). The interface (15) comprises an adapter converting electrical signals, conveyed by the triaxial cable (1), to optical signals. The fiber optic cable (9) transmits optical signals to the second interface (16). The interface (16) comprises an adapter converting optical signals to electrical signals. The second triaxial cable (18) transmits the electrical signals to the television camera (17). A mirror image of the adapters allows transmitting electrical signals from the camera (17) to the CCU (14).
