*** NOTICE ***
After 30 years, I have decide to retire and
close Studio 1
Productions.
All inventory has been sold off.
If you are
looking for cables for the JJC remote or cables for the Sony remote.
Click on the Home
button below, then click on which cable you need to see who is now
selling them.
Please Read this entire page as it contains a lot of information and instructions.
Extends the distance between the Camera and Remote.
Each end of the cable is wired differently.
You can not join two or more cables together.
Patent Pending
Extends the distance between the Camera and Remote.
Black end of the cable MUST plug into the Camera.
Red end of the cable MUST plug into the Remote.
Fully Shielded - Foil and Copper braid Shielding
for
EMI/RFI protection.
Each end of the cable is wired differently.
Male Connectors on both ends of the cable. You can NOT join two or more cables together.
These cables only work with the following remote control devices:
JJC SR-F2 wired remote
JJC TP-F2 tripod remote
JJC TP-F2SE tripod remote
JJC TP-F2K tripod remote
REVO VRS-Multi remote - A rebranded JJC SR-F2
ProMaster Code 9169 - A rebranded JJC SR-F2
They are shown below.
Other brands of remote controls do NOT allow you to
replace the cable, as the cable is built-in to controller.
If you are looking the the extension / replacement cables for the Sony RM-VPR1
or Sony VCT-VPR1 remote control units, then please visit this page.
The JJC Cables are NOT compatible with the Sony RM-VPR1 or Sony VCT-VPR1
remote, as the cables are wired differently and use a different
connection on the end that plugs into the remote.
We are now selling the JJC SR-F2 remote.
For more information and to order the JJC SR-F2 remote, please click on this link.
The 10ft, 15ft, 20ft, 27ft and 37 ft. cables are heavy duty and made with heavy gauge wires so there will not be any signal loss between the remote and the camera.
All cables are fully shielded with both braided wires and a foil shielding.
YOU MUST be careful with the connectors as they are very tiny and will damage if you are not careful with them.
I am not sure why Sony went to this type of connector, but you need to handle them very carefully.
The JJC SR-F2 extension
cable is perfect for use with End Zone camera and Sideline camera setups.
Your camera MUST have a Multiport Connection like shown above.
How to use the Cable
Power the camera OFF when plugging in or unplugging the cable. Or you may damage the remote controller.
Unplug the cable
that came with the
JJC SR-F2, JJC-FP-F2 tripod remote,
ProMaster or REVO VRS-Multi
remote controller, as you will be replacing that cable with our 10ft, 15ft, 20ft, 27ft or 37 ft. cable.
Next, the RED end of the cable plugs into the remote and the
BLACK end plugs into the camera. (NOTE: Do NOT remove the label
on the cable as it also has the serial number for the cable on the
one side. The serial number is needed for your warranty.)
Make sure you are plugging the cable in the correct way, or you may damage the connector.
When you plug the cable in, you should hear or feel it click into place. Please make sure the cable is plugged in all the way.
If the remote will not control the camera, then power off the camera and unplug and re-plug in both ends of the cable. As they may not
be getting a good connection.
Attention Coaches: While this cable is heavy duty and is perfect for End Zone
and Sideline camera setups. Warn who ever is setting up and working with the End Zone Camera system, that the
connectors are very small and fragile and they must handle them with care. They are NOT rugged like a football.
We also have HDMI cables
All Cables are Tested with a JJC SR-F2 remote and a Sony HDR CX440 camcorder prior to shipping.
Cable Warnings - PLEASE READ
Power the camera OFF when plugging in
or unplugging the cable.
When connecting the cable to the camera, you MUST
provide some type of strain relief so the cable is not pulling on the connection especially at the camera end, otherwise you will
damage the pins in the connector or the connector itself. As an example, you might try looping the cable around the camera
strap before plugging it into the camera.
I am sorry but we will NOT cover damage like this under the warranty, since this is caused by the
end user.
Connection Problems
If the cable is not making a good connection to the camera or remote, you will loose communication with the remote to camera. If this
happens unplug both ends of the cable and replug them back in. This almost always fixes the problem. What is happening is the
plug at the camera end (or remote end, but most likely the camera end)is being moved around slightly and the pins in the connection are
loosing contact. To fix this make sure you have a good strain relief system in place and that the cable is not loose or able to move.
RED Blinking LED on Remote
If the LED on the remote is blinking red, then it means one of two things:
1. You have a connection problem. Try unplugging the red end of the cable from the remote and plug it back
in again. It that doesn't work try unplugging the cable from the camera to see if that clears thing up.
2. The internal memory or the SD memory card is full. You should make sure the camera is set to
record to the SD memory card since it can hold much more video than the internal memory and you should be using a high capacity SD card as the
internal memory on most of the camcorders is smaller.
NOTE:
If you have the Sony FDR-AX100 or the
HDR-CX900, do NOT power on/off the AX100 or CX900 video camera with the
remote control. It will lock up the video camera. This is NOT a
problem with the remote, but a problem with the AX100/CX900 video
cameras. To unlock
the camera, you will need to remove the camera battery for about a
minute, then install the camera battery and you should be okay.
DO NOT get the connectors wet. There is a small circuit board inside each connector. If it gets wet it
will cause the cable to short out. So keep the cable/connectors off of the ground. We have heard of
people dragging the cables through wet grass and the cables not working because water got in the opening on the connectors. So, it is
your responsibility to make anyone handling the cable knows this. If the cable does get wet, coil it up like the picture
up above and laying it out in the warm sun for a day and see if the circuit board can dry out. Most of the time this can fix the
problem.
BE CAREFUL when plugging the cable in. Pay close attention to make sure you are
plugging the cable in the correct way or you will damage the pins in the cable.
Major problems coaches have with this cable:
Getting the connectors wet or dirt in the connector.
Plugging the cable in incorrectly and damaging the pins in the connector.
Not providing strain relief for the plug at the camera end.
Other users, such as videographers and photographers don't have these problems.
We have special equipment to
look into the connector to see if the pins have been damaged or if they have gotten wet or if you got dirt in the connector.
There will be no return or exchanges allowed, if we find damage that is caused by the end user, as this is not a failure of
the cable.
Not only are the cables tested at the factory, but ALL cables are tested here at Studio 1 Productions
with a Sony HDR-CX440 camcorder and the JJC SR-F2. Each cable is tested prior to packing.
Below is a partial list of camcorders that work with these cables.
NEW: To see a full list Sony Video Cameras, Camcorders and Cameras, that have the Multiport connection, plus LANC connections and

Please print this page out so you have a copy of the direction on how to use the
JJC SR-F2 Remote Extension Cable.
NOTE: There is a label on the extension cable showing which end plugs into the video camera. This
label also has the serial number for the cable. Do not remove this label as we need the serial number for
warranty purposes. If you remove the label with the serial number then the warranty will be voided.
NOTE: When connecting the cable to the camera, you MUST provide some type of strain relief, so the cable is not pulling on the connection especially at the camera end, otherwise you will damage the pins in the connector or the connector itself.
