Introducing the Aputure STORM 700x 8-Pin Cable (15 m)
The Aputure STORM 700x 8-Pin Cable (15 m) is a professional head cable designed to offer greater installation flexibility for the Aputure STORM 700x LED light. At 15 m in length, it allows the light head to be positioned much further from the control box than the standard 5 m cable included with the light. This cable is ideal for shoots requiring extensive setups, overhead mounting, or installations where the control box needs to remain on the ground for easy access.
General and essential features
The STORM 700x 8-Pin Cable is an eight-pin (8-pin) signal and power cable designed specifically for the STORM series. It ensures stable communication and a reliable power supply between the light head and the STORM 700x control box. Thanks to its shielded design, it resists electromagnetic interference and guarantees dependable transmission of DMX data and control signals.
Its 15m length allows for great placement flexibility, particularly in large studios, TV sets, or outdoor shoots where the projector needs to be suspended at a significant height. Retaining the same high-quality 8-pin connectors as the original cable, it installs easily without adapters or special tools.
Designed with durable materials and an abrasion-resistant outer sheath, the STORM 700x 8-Pin Cable is built for heavy-duty professional use. It is particularly well-suited for production environments where reliable and secure connections are essential. This cable extends the distance between the light source and the control box without any loss of power or performance, while maintaining full compatibility with the projector’s protocol and functions.
Case studies
High-level mounting
The 15m cable allows the STORM 700x to be suspended on a high structure or light bridge while keeping the control box accessible on the ground, facilitating adjustments and live control.
Studio shoots
In the studio, the extended cable simplifies cable management when multiple lights are installed on a large stage. It also allows the remote control box to be secured away from walkways.
Outdoor production
On outdoor shoots, the 15m cable is ideal for connecting the projector mounted on a crane, vehicle or elevated support, while maintaining precise control of the lighting from the ground.
Multi-camera use
In multi-camera or broadcast environments, the 8-Pin Cable offers greater installation flexibility and allows for optimized placement of light sources without compromising signal stability.
Maintenance and safety
Thanks to its reinforced design, this cable is protected against excessive bending and twisting. It ensures a long lifespan, even with daily use on professional film sets.
