The sync and camera connectors probably match specific cameras and equipment made by Sony at the time. With a device like this, all the cameras used must receive a common, external sync signal to avoid jumping or rolling video when switching cameras, or to allow "wipes" and split-screen multi-camera scenes, all of which this device could do. It is only for black-and-white video, not color. Here is a Web site with a few pictures of it:

So, it seems like it has absolutely no use in today's world?

It's B/W, and is made for spcialized equipment that does not exist anymore...

Should I tear it apart and use the case for a mixer or something? It seems that with the cutouts, and parts, it would make a great DJ-style mixer....

I'll get some pictures of it up tonight, but they will be from my crappy cell phone camera which has half of the frame blurry....I have no other digicam.
