Libec 5m/16.5' control cable for REMO30, LANC and monitor

R 2,914.10
Tax included Shipping calculated at checkout.

The Libec EX-500R is a multi-channel control cable extension engineered to bridge the data loop between a remote monitoring position and a camera rigged to a heavy-duty pan/tilt head. Designed as a key component for the Libec REMO30 motorized pan and tilt head, it combines video, power, and camera commands into a single, highly durable line.

Core Features & Practical Utility

  • All-In-One Signal Consolidation: Instead of running three separate cables that can easily twist, snag, or weigh down a crane arm, the system combines REMO30 head data, LANC camera control, and composite/HD video monitoring signals inside a single, heavily insulated outer jacket.

  • LANC Remote Control Pass-Through: The cable incorporates standard 2.5mm sub-mini plugs to extend remote zoom, focus, and record triggers from a pan-handle controller (like the Libec ZC-3DV) directly to a LANC-compatible Sony or Canon camera body mounted up on the motorized head.

  • BNC Video Line Isolation: A dedicated, high-quality video line terminated with BNC connectors runs through the center of the bundle. This setup delivers crisp, real-time video monitoring feeds back to the operator’s control station without latency or frame dropping.

  • Heavy-Duty Shielded Molding: The internal copper paths are wrapped in high-density shielding to protect fragile digital data blocks from the electromagnetic interference (EMI) generated by large crane motors, power generators, or nearby wireless video transmitters.

Hardware Technical Specifications Matrix:

Parameter Libec EX-500R Specifications
Model EX-500R
Total Cable Run Length 16.5 feet or 5.0 meters
REMO30 Data Interface Multi-pin circular connection block
Camera Control Protocol 2.5mm Sub-Mini LANC Standard (Male to Female)
Video Monitoring Output Integrated BNC Connection Loop
Primary System Target Libec REMO30 Motorized Pan & Tilt Head
Jacket Compound Type High-flexibility vulcanized industrial PVC

Operational System Tips for the EX-500R:

💡 The Motor Rotation Slack Method: When routing this 5-meter bundle down the arm of a crane like the Libec Swift Jib50, always leave a loose loop of about 8 to 10 inches right where the cable meets the REMO30 pan/tilt head. Because the REMO30 is capable of rapid, full 360-degree pans and tilts, a cable pulled completely taut will wrap tightly around the motor assembly, binding the gears and potentially ripping the delicate multi-pin connectors right out of their housings mid-pan.

  • Pin Cavity Storage Care: Before packing the EX-500R back into its storage bag after an outdoor shoot, check the multi-pin control connectors for dirt or moisture. Wiping the terminal ends clean ensures the electronic contacts won't oxidize, preventing communication errors or intermittent control dropouts during your next live production.
