URSA G2 - Type C - 7 meter cable length - Zoom/Focus

Dear all,

Our client has an URSA G2 installed on a 7-meter long Cartoni Jib.
Together with the URSA G2 the client needs to connect the Blackmagic zoom/focus control via USB-C cable.

Furthermore, to connect this we need a minimum 7-meter Type C cable to control it. Does it have to be USB-C Active Cable?
What do you suggest please to fix this?

In the meantime, we found this cable https://lightware.com/cab-usbc-aoc1000k? 10-meter USB-C Active Optical Cable.

Thank You. Let me know.

Regards,
Shaun

Does Cartoni make a 7m jib? Maybe Cammate?

You might try an AC powered hub in between two 4m cables.

Use the lens' native (Fuji/Canon) focus/zoom demands instead of the BM USB versions. Serial is good for 100's of feet.

Good Luck
