In the world of professional filmmaking and broadcasting, having the right power adapters can dramatically simplify your setup. The Rolux RL-C3 D-Tap to 4-Pin XLR Female Cable is designed to provide exactly that—an efficient, stable, and convenient way to power 4-pin XLR devices from standard D-Tap sources commonly found on V-mount and Gold-mount batteries.
This cable is a compact but essential accessory for creators who rely on clean, consistent power in the studio or out in the field.
Effortless Conversion from D-Tap to 4-Pin XLR
Many essential tools in production—such as field monitors, small lighting fixtures, and professional audio units—use the familiar 4-pin XLR input. On the other hand, most cinema batteries and power plates offer a D-Tap output.
The RL-C3 bridges these two standards seamlessly:
- D-Tap connector → connects directly to industry-standard batteries
- 4-Pin XLR female connector → powers devices designed for XLR input
This versatile pairing gives filmmakers and broadcast technicians far more flexibility when assembling their power workflow.
Ideal for Mobile and Modular Setups
As productions increasingly move toward lightweight rigs and mobile systems, the RL-C3 becomes especially valuable. It supports power delivery in situations such as:
- Run-and-gun documentary setups
- On-location interviews
- Gimbal-mounted systems
- Multi-monitor configurations
- ENG (Electronic News Gathering) kits
The cable helps operators power essential accessories from a single battery source, reducing excess weight and minimizing the need for multiple chargers or adapters.
Built for Durability in Demanding Environments
Working on set means dealing with unpredictable conditions—tight spaces, fast rig changes, and frequent packing and unpacking. The RL-C3 is built to handle this workload with:
- A reinforced D-Tap connector designed for secure engagement
- A sturdy 4-pin XLR female housing that resists deformation
- Flexible cable shielding that protects against bends, twists, and abrasion
Its durable build ensures steady performance even during long shooting days or in remote locations.
Clean Rig Integration for Professional Workflow
Good cable management improves safety, speed, and overall rig stability. The RL-C3’s manageable length and flexible design allow for:
- Smooth routing through camera cages
- Neat integration onto battery plates
- Organized wiring for studio racks
- Clutter-free handheld builds
By keeping your setup clean and efficient, the RL-C3 helps crew members work faster and with fewer distractions.
