The Aputure STORM XT52 Y50X-2011 Head Cable (7.5m) is a male to female head cable for the Aputure XT52 that replaces the 7.5 m cable supplied with the light or adds 7.5 m to the run between lamp head and control box. Aputure rates the STORM XT52 to run at full brightness with head cables daisy chained up to 45 m, so you can rig the head in a lift and keep the control box on the ground.

FAQ

Are different head cable lengths sold separately?

Yes. For the STORM XT52, Aputure sells the Y50X-2011 head cable in 7.5 m and 15 m lengths, and they can be chained up to 45 m in total.

Why does the XT52 ship with only a 7.5 m head cable?

The XT52 includes one 7.5 m head cable. As the run gets longer the system needs more power, up to 6,000W in extended head cable mode, and Aputure limits the chain to 45 m. Add this 7.5 m cable or the 15 m cable when the head has to be rigged further from the control box.

Can this cable replace a faulty head cable?

Yes. Aputure states this cable can be used to extend or replace the 7.5 m STORM XT52 head cable.
