Questions & Answers▲
What is this cable used for?
This adapter cable connects a PowerTap or D-Tap battery output to a device with a 4-pin XLR power input. It is suitable for powering cameras, monitors, and video accessories in camera rigs, battery systems, and mobile broadcast setups.
What connectors does the cable have on each end?
One end has a 2-pin PowerTap connector (male), also known as D-Tap. The other end has a 4-pin XLR right-angle socket.
What is the pin assignment of the 4-pin XLR connector?
Pin 1 is assigned to minus (ground) and pin 4 is assigned to plus (positive voltage). This is a common standard used in many professional camera and monitor power connections.
How long is the cable?
The cable has a length of approximately 50 cm, making it compact enough for use directly between a battery and an attached device on a camera rig.
What does freely adjustable angle mean in this context?
The XLR right-angle connector can be rotated and repositioned to any desired angle. This allows flexible cable routing depending on the orientation of the device and the layout of the rig.
Are the PowerTap contacts gold-plated?
Yes, the PowerTap connector uses gold contacts, which provide reliable conductivity and good resistance to corrosion over time.
Is this cable compatible with V-Mount and Gold Mount battery systems?
Yes, as long as the battery plate or battery has a PowerTap or D-Tap output port, the cable is compatible regardless of whether the battery uses a V-Mount or Gold Mount attachment.
Can this cable be used to power a monitor on a camera rig?
Yes, provided the monitor has a 4-pin XLR power input with the standard pin assignment of pin 1 minus and pin 4 plus, the cable can be used to supply power from a D-Tap source directly to the monitor.
Is the cable suitable for broadcast applications?
Yes, the cable is designed for use in mobile broadcast setups where a compact and reliable connection between a battery and a powered device is required.
Does the adjustable angle connector help with cable management on rigs?
Yes, the freely adjustable angle of the XLR connector makes it easier to route the cable cleanly alongside rig components, reducing strain on the connector and avoiding unwanted cable tension.
