Canare L-2.5CHWS HD-SDI Flexible Custom Cable

The Canare L-2.5CHWS is a flexible, low-loss 75-ohm coaxial cable designed for SD/HD/3G-SDI and short 12G-SDI runs of up to 32 meters. You can customize the cable to your exact specifications: choose the length, connectors, and the color of the cable jackets.

Canare L-2.5CHWS HD-SDI Custom Flexible Cable

The Canare L-2.5CHWS is a flexible and durable 75-ohm low-loss coaxial cable, suitable for professional SD/HD/3G-SDI video applications and for shorter 12G-SDI runs. Thanks to its 4.2 mm outer diameter, stranded center conductor, and high resistance to repeated bending, it is particularly suitable for mobile use, camera setups, monitoring, control rooms, and studio interconnects.

For 12G-SDI 4K-UHD, the approximate maximum transmission distance is up to 32 m according to the SMPTE ST 2082-1 specification. In practice, the resulting reliability may also depend on the equipment used, signal quality, connectors, and the entire cabling setup.

The cable is custom-made according to the selected configuration. You can select the desired length, available connectors, and cap colors directly on the product page. Depending on the configuration, the cable can be fitted with Canare BCP-B25HW connectors with Canare CB02 colored caps, or NEUTRIK BNC75BFG7X connectors with NEUTRIK BST-BNC caps.
