IDX Technology EB-424L 4-Position V-Mount Power Base Station with 24V and 12V Outputs

Rugged, compact and field portable, the EB-424L from IDX is a V-Mount power base station designed for use in environments where voltage and current capacity are a challenge. High-end broadcast camera systems (such as Sony F23, Sony F35, RED ONE) have specific power requirements that can be fulfilled by the EB-424L.

The Power Base mode also provides a battery backup station to the camera should the main AC become disconnected or fail at any stage, so that no critical production material is lost or shooting is delayed. The EB-424L has two output terminals—industry standard 12V and professional 24V. Both voltages can be used either separately or simultaneously.

When utilizing V-Mount Lithium Ion battery power, the base station can handle up to 696Wh using eight (8) E-HL9 batteries in PowerLink mode on four V-Mount plates. Select 12V which output from a XLR connector or 24V which output from a Lemo connector – either separately or simultaneously.

IDX EB-424L Features:

• Supports up to Eight (8) E-HL9 batteries when in PowerLink providing up to 696Wh with the maximum number of batteries in use.
• Features uninterrupted battery change-over during normal operation.
• Selection of 12V or 24V output voltage of the LEMO connector via a dedicated 24V output switch. Activation of power switch turns on pilot LED; 24V is output from the LEMO connector.
• Additionally, 12V output is always continuous from both the LEMO and XLR connector depending on how the cable/pin is configured (when the 24V switch is active).
• Compact, lightweight and durable design with extendable feet for use on location, in studio and desktop surfaces.
• Maximum current of 12V is 20A (10A each output); in 24V operation, the maximum current is 5A.
• LED Indicator for 24V output includes detection of protection circuit, dual low voltage warning when below 14V and 12V.
