Use the Hollyland D-Tap to DC 2.1 Power Cable to power your Mars transmitter or receiver from a D-Tap power source. The cable converts a D-Tap feed from a separately available battery into a 2.1 VDC barrel connection that plugs directly into your Hollyland unit.
Key features
- Directly powers Mars transmitter or receiver from a D-Tap source.
- Connects to professional D-Tap power sources, such as V-mount or Gold mount batteries (sold separately).
- Ends in a 2.1 VDC barrel connector to plug into compatible transmitters or receivers.
- Compact, fixed length of 60cm for tidy routing between battery and device.
How to use
First, attach the D-Tap end to your separately available D-Tap power source, for example a V-mount or Gold mount battery. Then, plug the 2.1 VDC barrel connector into the DC input on your Mars transmitter or receiver. Finally, secure cabling as needed to prevent strain on connectors during use.

FAQ
-
Question: Do I need to buy a battery separately?
Answer: Yes. This cable requires a separately available D-Tap power source, such as a V-mount or Gold mount battery, which is not included.
-
Question: Will this cable fit other devices besides the Mars series?
Answer: The cable terminates in a 2.1 VDC barrel connector, so it will physically connect to devices that accept that standard barrel size. Confirm your device’s DC input type before use.
-
Question: How long is the cable and how does that affect setup?
Answer: The cable measures 60 cm, which provides a short, tidy run from the D-Tap battery to your transmitter or receiver. This length helps minimize cable clutter while allowing flexible placement on camera rigs or cages.
