Appendix C: Input and Output Connectors.
D.C Power Input
The power input connector accepts a DC voltage b11.5 and +17V DC. When used with
a RED-BRICK 140 battery, the camera also receives battery status information. The power input
is protected against reverse-polarity connection, ESD, under voltage, and over current.

Note: It is very important that both pairs of the +VBATT and GROUND pins are wired up.
DO NOT fabricate power cables with just one each of +VBATT and GROUND pins wired,
as this may cause damage to the camera’s power supply.
Drive Interface
The Drive Interface is a custom e-SATA and power connection for RED-DRIVE and RED-RAM
media. Due to the data integrity nature of this interface, the pin-out is not published.
Contact RED technical support for details of available Drive Interface cable lengths.
Note: The Drive Interface and D.C Power Input connectors use the same connector shell
size. It is very important that you do not force a 16-pin Drive Interface cable into the 6-pin
D.C Power connector, a 6-pin D.C Power cable into the 16-pin Drive Interface connector.
