Product Information
Full details
The SmallRig Monitor Cage Kit is designed for professional videographers and content creators using the Atomos Shinobi II monitor who need a reliable, protective housing that expands mounting capabilities. The kit provides comprehensive protection for the monitor body and screen while adding critical cable security and accessory mounting points. One primary caveat to note is that while it enhances durability, the added bulk may slightly increase the footprint of your monitor rig during transport compared to using the device bare.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the cage, align the Atomos Shinobi II within the frame and use the provided mounting screws to secure it in place. Ensure the cable clamp is properly aligned with your specific HDMI and USB-C connectors before tightening to ensure strain relief. The silica-boron screen protector should be applied by cleaning the monitor screen thoroughly with a microfiber cloth to remove dust before aligning the edges carefully. For care, wipe the aluminum frame with a dry cloth after use in humid or dusty conditions. The cage is specifically engineered for the Atomos Shinobi II; do not attempt to force other monitor models into this frame, as the dimensions and port cutouts will not align.
