D-TAP cable Feelworld D tap cable — power connection accessory for cameras and monitors

The Feelworld D-TAP cable is a power connection accessory designed to deliver DC power via a D-TAP connector. It provides a straightforward wired solution for powering cameras, external monitors and other production accessories that accept D-TAP input. The cable allows linking V-mount or Gold mount batteries, power distribution boxes or external power stations to devices on set or in the field, enabling continuous operation without relying solely on onboard batteries.

Advantages

The cable offers a reliable, low-loss DC connection with a D-TAP plug engineered for secure contact and consistent power delivery. Its simple construction minimises potential points of failure and supports common professional battery systems, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of production equipment. The design focuses on practicality and durability for repeated use during shoots and fieldwork.

Suitable for

• Powering external monitors and field recorders that accept D-TAP input
• Connecting professional cameras to external battery systems
• Supplying power to LED lights and camera accessories on rigs
• Integrating into power distribution setups on professional shoots

Key specifications

• Connector type: D-TAP power plug
• Cable function: DC power transmission
• Intended use: External power connection between batteries/power sources and devices
• Compatibility: Designed for devices with D-TAP input and standard professional battery systems
• Construction: Single power cable with insulated conductors and strain relief at connector

How to use

Connect the D-TAP plug to the D-TAP input on the target device or to a compatible power distribution output. Attach the opposite end to a compatible battery, power plate or external power station that provides DC output through a D-TAP socket. Ensure the power source is switched off when connecting or disconnecting to avoid shorts or arcing. Verify that the voltage and polarity of the power source match the requirements of the connected device before powering on.

Usage recommendations

Inspect connectors before each use for signs of wear or damage and avoid sharp bending near the connector to prolong cable life. Use in environments within the cable's temperature and mechanical limits, and route the cable to minimise trip hazards and strain on connectors. When not in use, store the cable coiled loosely in a dry place.
