Freefly Systems Wave D-Tap Power Cable

The Freefly Systems Wave D-Tap Power Cable is an indispensable accessory designed to provide flexible and extended power options for the Freefly Wave high-speed cinema camera. This cable allows you to power your Wave camera directly from widely available D-Tap (P-Tap) power sources, leveraging common professional camera batteries for prolonged shooting sessions.

The Freefly Systems Wave D-Tap Power Cable is engineered for robust performance and reliable power delivery to your Freefly Wave camera. On one end, it features a standard D-Tap male connector, which plugs into any compatible D-Tap output found on professional V-Mount batteries, Gold Mount batteries, or D-Tap power distribution hubs. These external batteries typically provide a nominal 14.8V (12-16.8V range), which the cable helps to regulate or directly supply to the camera.

The other end of the cable is equipped with a barrel connector (often a 2.1mm or similar standard) that securely plugs into the DC input port of the Freefly Wave camera. This direct connection ensures continuous operation without relying solely on the camera’s internal battery, which is crucial for long takes, multi-day shoots, or demanding high-frame-rate capture sessions.

Key features and benefits include:

• Extended Runtime: Significantly increases the operational time of your Freefly Wave camera by allowing it to draw power from high-capacity external cinema batteries.
• Versatile Power Options: Utilizes industry-standard D-Tap connections, enabling compatibility with a broad range of professional power solutions already common on film sets.
• Reliable Connection: Constructed with high-quality wiring and durable, secure connectors to prevent power interruptions during dynamic shooting.
• Optimized Length: Typically comes in a practical length (e.g., 20-30 inches / 50-75 cm) to allow for flexible rigging without excessive cable clutter.
• Essential Workflow Tool: Critical for professional cinematographers who need continuous power for their high-speed camera in various on-set scenarios, from studio setups to mobile gimbal operations.

The Freefly Wave D-Tap Power Cable is a fundamental Freefly Wave accessory that enhances the camera’s adaptability and power longevity, ensuring you never miss a critical moment due to battery limitations.
