SMPTE Cables
Camplex SMPTE fiber optic cables deliver the clarity and high performance that broadcast professionals require. From breakout cables and adapters, power and signal extenders to camera cable jumpers and LEMO fiber connectors Camplex has everything you need.
Breakout Adapters - SMPTE
Convert a SMPTE 311m hybrid fiber cable to conventional single mode ST, LC or opticalCON DUO cable with the HYDAP series of robust in-line adapters. Converting SMPTE hybrid cables to conventional fiber cables avoids the cost of additional cables and increases the distance for reliable camera connections. Designed for harsh environments, such as sports broadcasting and stadiums, HYDAP breakout adapters feature a durable aluminum housing and recessed fiber connectors to prevent damage.
Note: HYDAPS are passive SMPTE fiber breakout boxes that allow for simple integration using riser rated duplex cables. Some camera/CCU setups may require continuity between the copper conductors found within a SMPTE fiber connector to remain intact. For such scenarios, models are also available with optional power tap to interface with camera CCU: 5-Pin, 6-Pin or 8-Pin AMP CPC connector or male or female XLR wired to the copper conductors of the SMPTE hybrid connector. Contact your reseller for assistance.

Camera Cable Jumpers
Lightweight and flexible HF-STEADICAM jumpers are designed for use with portable camera stabilizers, such as the Steadicam, and camera jibs to provide unrestricted movement without the weight. The steel strength member has been removed from the cable for increased flexibility and ease of use. With thin Mohawk 4.2mm SMPTE cable and durable LEMO FUW/PUW connectors, the HF-STEADICAM is a reliable short distance interface between the camera and a standard SMPTE cable for signal transmission.
CHECK camera and Steadicam platform type to determine power cable requirements before ordering. Camplex HF-STEADICAM SMPTE jumpers are designed to operate with local power. These assemblies use lighter AWG power conductors and may not be suitable for applications where the power is provided by the CCU.
NOTE: Maximum available length is 10 feet. See our SMPTE cable offerings for any length over 10 feet.
