COSI Cabling

COSI’s modularity principle applies perfectly to its cabling. A cable (standard or non-standard) can immediately be removed from a Holder and the swivel, and then exchanged with another.

Two standard cables: “Short” (one plastic pin) and “Long” (two plastic pins). Depending on your needs, it is possible to order a specific length. The cable itself (Blue Ø4 mm) is defined in a compromise of flexibility and high tensile strength (Kevlar core).

If there is a need to enhance immunity to digital transmitters, COSI cables can be ordered in a specific “RF” version. An “RF” cable is generally identified by the addition of RED markings (heat shrink tubing).

Additional and replacement COSI cables can be found here.

SW-UL-C Swivel Mount

In addition to the angle adjustment via the main knob, the SW-UL-C swivel base can be rotated (or even pulled out) to select a particular position for the XLR or a plug-in transmitter.

Get COSI Camera Adapter

COSI has an ideal size for a camera adaptation. The attachment is made with the CAM-ADAPT accessory, which is immediately interchangeable with the SW-UL-C swivel.

The cables that come with any COSI “boom” version (with SW-UL-C swivel) usually fit directly onto a camera whose XLRs are located near the Hot/Cold Shoe accessory, but it is very easy to order a custom length.
