Blackmagic Design LANC Cable (180mm)
The Blackmagic Design LANC Cable (180mm) is the shortest official control cable in the URSA lineup. It is designed for direct, compact connections where cable slack needs to be minimized to prevent tangles or snags.
In 2026, this cable is the gold standard for "compact" rig configurations, specifically when the handgrip is mounted directly to the camera body rather than on an extension arm.
Core Functionality
-
Direct Handgrip Connection: At 180mm (approx. 7 inches), this cable is half the length of the standard 350mm version. It is perfectly sized to connect the side handle to the camera's LANC port when the handle is attached directly to the camera's side rosette.
-
Streamlined Rigging: Its short length eliminates the "loop" of excess cable that often occurs with longer cables, making it ideal for gimbal work or tight handheld setups where every inch of space matters.
-
Full Command Support: Despite its small size, it carries all the same data as longer versions, providing instant control over Record Start/Stop, Iris, and Focus.
Key Features
-
Ultra-Compact Profile: Engineered to stay close to the camera body, reducing the "snag factor" when moving through tight spaces or dense crowds during documentary shoots.
-
Right-Angle Connectors: Usually features a right-angle 2.5mm jack to keep the connector tucked in, protecting the camera's physical LANC port from lateral impact.
-
Professional Shielding: High-quality interference shielding ensures that your recording triggers are never interrupted by electronic noise from wireless transmitters or nearby power sources.
Technical Specifications

When Should You Use This Instead of the 350mm?
-
Gimbal Mounting: When the URSA is on a DJI Ronin or Freefly Movi, you want the shortest cables possible to avoid affecting the balance of the motors.
-
Handheld (No Extender): If you prefer to keep the camera close to your body without a shoulder rig, the 180mm cable provides a clean, "factory" look.
-
Tripod Operation: If you have an external LANC remote mounted to your tripod's pan bar right next to the camera, this short cable keeps your workspace organized.
Operational Insight (2026)
In 2026, most veteran URSA operators carry both a 180mm and a 350mm cable in their kit. The 180mm is often the "backup" that becomes the primary when you realize your shoulder rig extender isn't needed for a specific interior shoot.
Pro Tip: If you find the 180mm cable is just slightly too short for your setup, don't pull it taut. Standard LANC ports are not reinforced for tension; instead, swap to the 350mm and use a small velcro tie to manage the slack.
