Product Information
Full details
The Atomos Locking Full HDMI Cable (30cm) is an essential accessory for videographers and content creators who use on-camera monitors like the Atomos Shinobi II. Designed to provide a secure and stable signal path, this cable ensures high-speed 4K60 HDR video transmission without the risk of accidental disconnection. While its 30cm length is perfect for clean, cable-managed camera rigs, users should note that its short reach limits its utility to strictly on-camera or cage-mounted setups.

FAQs
Will this cable work with non-Atomos monitors?
Yes, as long as the device utilizes a standard full-size HDMI port, the cable will transmit video signals, though the locking mechanism compatibility may vary by device port depth.
Can I use this for 12G-SDI connections?
No, this is an HDMI cable and is not compatible with SDI ports.
Does this cable support audio transmission?
Yes, this cable supports standard HDMI audio embedding alongside video.
Is the cable stiff or flexible?
It is designed to be flexible enough for easy positioning on a camera rig while remaining durable enough to protect the internal wiring.
Does it support Variable Refresh Rate (VRR)?
The cable is designed for 4K60 video standards common in film and video production; while it supports high speeds, it is optimized for camera monitoring workflows.
Troubleshooting
No image on the external monitor
Verify that the cable is fully inserted and the locking mechanism is engaged. Also, ensure the camera is set to output via HDMI in its menu settings.
Intermittent signal drops
Check that the HDMI port on your camera or monitor is clean and free of debris. Ensure the cable is not under excessive tension from the monitor's positioning.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Secure locking mechanism prevents accidental disconnects

- Short 30cm length keeps rigs clean and tidy
- High-quality build optimized for professional environments
Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up, simply align the locking connector with your monitor or camera's full HDMI port and press firmly until the locking mechanism engages. Ensure the device is powered off before connecting to avoid static discharge. Regarding compatibility, this cable is intended for devices featuring full-size HDMI ports (Type A). To maintain the cable's longevity, avoid sharp bends near the connector housings and store it in a coil rather than folding it tightly. Regularly inspect the connector pins for dust and debris to ensure a clean signal transfer.
