The CV2000 was a 405 line VTR. Tape ran at 7.5ips. There may well have been different versions for other countries. The 625 line CV2100 looked very similar. Tape ran at 11.5ips. I think there were versions of both machines with an extra box on the side. I think it was for a loudspeaker and amplifier. There may have been a version with a video monitor built in. I need to hunt for my reference books.
The CV5600 was an early attempt at a low cost colour VTR. It used colour-under methods to record chroma. The same methods would be used in all later VCRs including Philips 1500.
At the time the CV5600 was introduced (early 1970s?) the only other colour VTRs were 2" Quadruplex for the broadcasters and the then new U-matic:: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U-matic I think it was also possible to record colour on some models of the Ampex 7000 series 1" VTRs, later known as A-format. Possibly also some of the IVC 1" VTRs.
