Questions & Answers▲
For which controllers is the VZEXT-8/50 suitable?
The extension cable is compatible with Canon and Fujinon broadcast controllers that use an 8-pin connector. It can be integrated directly into existing 8-pin systems.
How long is the cable exactly?
The cable is approx. 15 meters long, which corresponds to 50 feet. This length offers sufficient scope for larger production setups where the camera and operating station are spatially separated from each other.
What type of connector does the cable use?
The cable is equipped with an 8-pin connector on one side and an 8-pin connector on the other side. This is the connector type that is used as standard in Fujinon and Canon broadcast systems.
Is the cable shielded?
Yes, the cable has a shielded version. This shielding supports reliable signal transmission over the entire cable length of 15 meters and reduces interference in professional production environments.
Can the cable be used for permanently installed systems?
The extension cable is expressly designed for professional production and installation environments designed. It is therefore suitable for mobile use as well as for permanently installed broadcast setups and control stations.
Is the connection mechanically secured?
Yes, the cable uses screw connections on the plugs. These ensure a secure fit and prevent accidental loosening of the connection, which is particularly important for stage use or longer productions.
For which areas of application is the VZEXT-8/50 particularly suitable?
The extension cable is particularly suitable for large ones Stage and event productions, broadcast installations with a control station as well as camera crane systems in which larger distances between camera and operator have to be bridged.
Can several extension cables be connected in series?
Since the cable has a plug and a If the coupling has the same 8-pin type, it is generally possible to connect several cables in series. Whether this is recommended in the respective production environment depends on the requirements of the system used.
Does the cable only transmit zoom signals or also other control signals?
The cable is designed as an extension for 8-pin zoom and camera controls. Which signals are actually transmitted depends on the connected control and the respective Canon or Fujinon system.
Is the cable suitable for use at outdoor events?
The cable has been developed for professional production environments and is used, among other things, for large stage and event productions recommended. There is no information about the protection class or weather resistance, which is why appropriate precautions should be taken when used outdoors.
Is the extension cable compatible with all Canon ENG and EFP lenses?
The cable is compatible with Canon and Fujinon zoom lenses that have a Use 8-pin control connector. You can check whether a particular lens is supported based on the connection type on the respective lens or the controller used.
