Camvate

Camvate SDI Coaxial Cable 1.6ft for Blackmagic Video Assist Monitor

SKU CH-MH71-GAY9G

Connects a Blackmagic Video Assist Monitor to SDI devices with a short 1.6 ft cable for tidy rigs

  • Reliable signal transmission for Blackmagic Video Assist Monitor via high-quality SDI coaxial cable
  • Pristine video clarity with minimized signal loss for professional monitoring
  • Convenient 1.6 ft length reduces clutter in close-proximity setups
  • Versatile SDI connectivity for Blackmagic Video Assist and other compatible equipment
  • Durable flexible construction supports efficient video and audio transmission workflows

Purpose-built SDI link for Blackmagic Video Assist

This 1.6-foot coaxial cable connects a Blackmagic Video Assist monitor directly to an SDI-compatible camera or recorder. The short length keeps the rig tidy on a gimbal, shoulder mount or tight on-camera cage. It is intended for videographers who need a dedicated, no-slack SDI run between monitor and source. Buyers who need longer runs or multi-camera switching should look elsewhere.

Signal integrity over a short run

The 0.5-metre conductor is designed to minimise attenuation so the monitor receives a clean, full-bandwidth SDI feed without equalisation artefacts. Flexible jacketing resists kinks during repeated rigging and derigging while keeping the cable lightweight. No external power or active circuitry is involved, so the link adds no noise or latency to the monitoring path.

Length fixed at 1.6 feet

The cable measures exactly 1.6 feet (0.5 m) end to end. This dimension suits close-proximity setups where the monitor sits on or next to the camera. If the monitor must be positioned farther away — on a director's cart, a client village or a jib arm — this cable will not reach.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the 1.6ft SDI cable to my Blackmagic Video Assist Monitor without damaging the BNC connector?

Align the BNC plug's pin with the monitor's SDI input, push straight in, then twist the locking ring clockwise until it clicks; forcing it at an angle bends the centre pin.

What wear should I expect on the cable after repeated coiling for location shoots?

The 0.5m length uses a flexible jacket rated for frequent bending; inspect the BNC strain reliefs periodically and replace the cable if the shielding becomes exposed or connectors loosen.

At what distance does signal degradation become noticeable on this 1.6ft run?

At 1.6 feet the cable is well within standard SDI reach limits, so attenuation is negligible; the first practical limit is the monitor's own input sensitivity, not the cable length.
