How a Sony camera connects depends on its type. First check which type your camera belongs to, then go to the page for your model.

Connection by Camera Type​

CCUs and Camcorders​

If your camera (or CCU) has an RJ45 (LAN) port, it can be controlled over IP.

caution

Only bridge mode is supported, not MSU (Master Setup Unit).

The other option is the 8-pin (8P) remote port, which offers the same controls but requires a CI0 or RIO. See Sony 8-Pin for details.
