This Nanlite head extension cable measures 7.5m and uses locking 8‑pin connectors. It provides extra reach between the light head and the control unit for compatible Forza LED spotlights. The cable helps you place lights or control units further apart while maintaining a secure, locked connection.
This cable uses multiple protective elements to improve durability and signal integrity. The construction includes:
The 7.5m length maximizes versatility. With this extra reach, you can explore more mounting and booming options on set. In practice, you gain flexibility when positioning spotlights away from stands or control locations to achieve the desired lighting angles and placement.
By using this extension cable, you can move the control unit further away from your subject, camera, and microphones. This physical separation helps reduce the chance of electromagnetic interference and audio noise affecting your recording environment.
