Product Information

Full details

The SmallRig D-TAP to BMPCC 4K/6K Power Cable 4761 is an essential accessory for professional videographers using Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Cameras who need a reliable, extended power solution from V-mount or Gold-mount batteries. Its primary benefit is the intelligent reverse-plugging protection and self-locking connector, which safeguard your equipment during high-stakes shoots. The main caveat is that the coiled design requires enough physical space to manage the cable extension without putting undue stress on your camera's port.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this cable compatible with the original BMPCC?

No, this cable is specifically designed for the BMPCC 4K and 6K models, which use the LEMO 2-pin power standard.

How long is the cable when fully stretched?

The ultra-flexible coiled cable can extend up to 120cm (47.2 inches).

What is the purpose of the indicator light?

The indicator light automatically detects the orientation of the D-TAP plug to prevent reverse plugging, which could potentially damage your equipment.

Does the cable support PD charging?

No, this cable is designed to convert D-TAP power from a professional camera battery to the 2-pin input of the BMPCC.

Is the LEMO connector locking?

Yes, it features a self-locking mechanism to ensure a stable and secure connection during operation.

Troubleshooting

Indicator light does not turn on when plugging in D-TAP

Ensure the battery is powered on and check that the D-TAP connector is fully seated. If the light remains off, double-check your battery's power output.

Power is intermittent during operation

Check the LEMO connector for any dust or debris inside the port, and ensure the self-locking collar is fully engaged.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Integrated indicator light prevents accidental reverse-plugging damage
  • Self-locking LEMO connector provides high connection security
  • Flexible coiled design prevents cable clutter
  • Extends up to 120cm for versatile rigging options

Cons

  • Coiled cables can sometimes exert slight tension on the camera port if over-stretched
  • Designed specifically for BMPCC 4K/6K, limiting cross-camera compatibility
  • Requires an external D-TAP power source

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up, first ensure your external battery system has an available D-TAP port. Insert the D-TAP connector carefully; the indicator light will confirm correct orientation before you fully seat it. Connect the LEMO 2-pin end to your BMPCC 4K or 6K power input, ensuring it clicks into the locked position. To disconnect, pull back the outer ring of the LEMO connector to release the lock. For maintenance, keep the cable clean of dust and debris, and avoid over-extending the coil to its absolute limit, as this can fatigue the internal wiring over long periods. Store the cable without tight kinks to preserve the elasticity of the coil.
