Notes

The tube pitch is marked as 0.43mm in Ikegami's specifications but Panasonic themselves confirmed the pitch of this tube to be 0.40mm with a maximum resolvable resoution of 865 TVL. The actual TVL will be limited by the bandwidth and other circuitry of a given chassis, which is why this monitor is only marked as 600 TVL despite having an 865 TVL tube inside. Source

The RGB input on the back is a nonstandard XLR-type connector called a "Hirose 10 pin connector".
