Waterproof Cable System
The Camtraptions Waterproof Cable System offers a new way to set up and provide power to long-term camera traps. The cables within this new system contain 5 cores: two high-current power wires and three signal wires. The system can therefore distribute power from centralised batteries, stored in a convenient location, to any device such as cameras, flashes and video lights.
The same cables can also carry a set of trigger signals, for example: half press and full press signals from a motion sensor to a camera, flash shoot signals from a camera to flashes, or video trigger signals from a motion sensor to both a camera and video light switches.
All connections within the Waterproof Cable System are made 100% secure and water-tight using o-ring seals and locking nuts.
Key advantages of the Waterproof Cable System include:
- The overall number of batteries required to operate a camera trap can be reduced.
- Having the batteries stored in a central and accessible location means that the camera trap can be serviced more quickly and easily.
- The bulk and weight of the equipment mounted at each flash, camera or video light can be reduced.
