The ZGCINE D-Tap to DC 5.5×2.5 Power Cable is a premium braided accessory cable engineered to deliver clean, reliable power from V-Mount or Gold Mount D-Tap batteries directly to your camera, monitor, LED light, or on-set accessory. With a generous 60 cm length and a robust 10A output current, it handles demanding power loads on professional production rigs with ease.
What sets this ZGCINE cable apart is its 180° rotatable D-Tap male connector paired with an anti-reverse insertion indicator light — two thoughtful design features that prevent costly mis-connection errors and give you total flexibility when routing cables on a busy rig. Supporting an input and output voltage range of 12V–17V, it is fully compatible with the most widely used D-Tap battery ecosystems on the market.
Key features
- 180° Rotatable D-Tap Male Connector — Adapts to any cable-management angle on your rig, eliminating awkward bends and connector stress.
- Anti-Reverse Insertion Indicator Light — Built-in LED warns you instantly of incorrect polarity, protecting your valuable cameras, monitors, and lights.
- High 10A Output Current — Handles power-hungry accessories and simultaneous loads without voltage drop or overheating.
- Wide 12V–17V Voltage Range — Compatible with virtually all V-Mount and Gold Mount D-Tap batteries and power rigs used in professional filmmaking.
- Durable Braided Cable Construction — Resists tangling, abrasion, and repeated coiling on set for a longer working life than standard PVC cables.
- Practical 60 cm Length — Long enough for flexible rig routing yet short enough to keep your setup tidy and tangle-free.

Frequently asked questions
Which battery systems are compatible with the ZGCINE D-Tap to DC 5.5×2.5 Power Cable?
The cable works with any D-Tap-equipped battery system, including V-Mount and Gold Mount batteries as well as power rigs with D-Tap outputs installed, provided the supply voltage falls within the 12V–17V range.
What does the anti-reverse insertion indicator light do?
The indicator light alerts you immediately if the D-Tap connector is inserted with reversed polarity, helping you avoid potential damage to your camera, monitor, or other connected accessories before power is applied.
Can I use this cable to power a camera monitor and a light simultaneously from one D-Tap port?
This cable has a single DC 5.5×2.5mm output, so it powers one device at a time. However, with a 10A maximum output current and up to 17V input, it provides ample power for high-draw devices such as monitors and LED lights individually.
