MID49 Power Distribution Box DB-11 for Sony FX6/FX9 (Gold Mount, Rod Mounted)

Overview Power Distribution Box DB-11 (Sony FX6, Gold Mount) attaches directly to the rear two 1/4-20s of the camera body and provides intelligent power distribution with D-Taps, 5V USB-C PD, 3pin Fischers, and 2pin LEMO compatible connectors. Removable REMOTE LANC cable enables remote start/stop capability using 3pin Fischer devices. Hot-swap between on-board battery and 4pin XLR DC INPUT without losing camera or accessory power. When both sources are connected, the DC INPUT takes priority down to 12.5V at which point, the DB-4 will switch to an onboard battery. The mount design allows for a Sony BP-U battery to be installed in the camera to function as an emergency backup. To swap the internal battery, swing the DB-11 up and release the battery. Note that the DB-11 provides 19.5V to the camera so that the camera will default to the DC input. The DB-11 can also be separated from its camera mount, revealing a 15mm rod clamp with an internal friction sleeve. With the SMART FUSE design, camera power is monitored and the remaining power budget is allocated to accessories. For example, the FX6 uses approximately 1.0A at 14V so when using a 10A capable battery, the remaining 9.0A is allocated for accessory use. If an accessory configuration exceeds the 9.0A limit, accessory power is cut off, leaving the camera powered. The “SMART FUSE” LED will illuminate, showing the error, and once the configuration has been adjusted to lower than 9.0A, the RESET button can be pressed, and power will be re-enabled to accessory outputs. In the event of a complete short circuit, the system will immediately shut down and can only be turned back on once the short circuit has been removed. The DB-11 is also compatible with Sony FX9, but that camera’s mounting points are in a different location so the Rod Mounted version is suggested.
