24.6 ft Extension Cable for STORM 400x

This 7.5 m head extension cable is built for the Aputure STORM 400x LED light. It connects the lamp head to the control box over longer runs, giving gaffers and cinematographers the freedom to rig fixtures overhead while keeping controls at ground level. The 5-pin male-to-female connectors lock securely for reliable operation on professional sets.

Passive Cable With No Active Cooling

The extension adds no fan, no power draw and no heat of its own. Signal and power travel through the copper conductors without active electronics, so the cable runs silently and does not increase the thermal load on the fixture or control box. Durable jacketing protects the wires from the wear of daily studio and location work.

Fits Between Head and Control Box

The cable inserts directly between the STORM 400x head and its dedicated control box, requiring no adapters or additional hardware. It frees up rigging options by allowing the head to be mounted on tall stands, trusses or overhead grids while the control unit stays accessible. Users who need even longer runs or a different connector type will need a separate solution.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the 7.5m head extension cable to my STORM 400x and what is the common mistake?

Plug the 5-pin male connector into the fixture head and the female end into the control box; the step often missed is securing both locking collars until they click to prevent signal loss.

What part of this 24.6ft cable will need replacement first with heavy studio use?

The 5-pin connector pins and locking mechanism wear fastest from repeated mating cycles; inspect for bent pins or loose collars and replace the cable if the lock no longer holds firm.

At what length does voltage drop become an issue for the STORM 400x head cable?

This 7.5m extension is the maximum factory-supported length; chaining additional cables exceeds the design limit and will trigger voltage-drop protection on the 400W fixture.
