Timecode Sync for RED Cameras
This 2 in 1 accessory connects Tentacle Sync generators to RED Komodo and V-RAPTOR 8K cameras. It carries timecode from the generator to the camera's EXT port for frame-accurate synchronisation. The cable suits production crews who need reliable timecode ingest on set. It is not for users without a compatible timecode generator or cameras lacking the 9-pin EXT interface.
3.5mm to 9-Pin ODU Wiring
Plug A is a straight 9-pin male connector compatible with ODU sockets on the camera side. Plug B is a Neutrik 3.5mm 1/8'' mini jack that mates with Tentacle Sync output. The 50 cm length keeps the link tidy on rigs while allowing enough slack for camera movement. Builders needing a longer run or a different connector pinout will need another cable.
Stable Signal Over 50 cm
The short run minimises signal degradation during extended takes. Neutrik and ODU-compatible contacts maintain a secure connection under vibration. The assembly is built for daily production use from March 2026 onward. It does not amplify or regenerate timecode, so the source generator must drive the line adequately.

Questions about this item
How long can the 50 cm cable reach between the timecode generator and the camera?
The cable measures 50 cm, giving a half-metre run from a Tentacle Sync unit to the RED Komodo or V-RAPTOR 8K EXT port.
Does the 3.5 mm Neutrik plug or the 9-pin ODU connector generate heat during continuous recording?
The passive cable carries only timecode signals, so neither connector produces noticeable heat during all-day operation.
Which timecode generator is required to use this cable with the RED camera?
A Tentacle Sync or compatible generator with a 3.5 mm output is needed to feed timecode into the cable.
