NAB 2025! It’s a Wrap.
With NAB 2025 over, those of us at IDX want to make sure you hear about the new IDX products introduced at NAB this year.
IDX continues to move forward with USB-C PD products that support our customers’ use of V- Mount, Gold Mount, B-Mount, Sony BPU products and now the Sony SL-F PD series products.
The introduction of the IDX SL-F50P and SL-F70P provides users of 7.2v L series battery products with USB-C PD charging. The NEW IDX SL-F50P and SL-F70PDprovides the same economical replacement for production equipment or accessories using Sony L-series batteries (such as the Sony NP-F970), with the addition of the USB-C PD 30W IN/OUT port and USB-A 10.5W(5V/2.1A) port.
IDX also introduced the next-generation USB-C PD charger, the UC-PD1SU. The IDX UC-PD1SU supports USB-C PD charging up to 67W and can also charge laptops, tablets, and smartphones equipped with Type-C. Its small size makes it convenient for IDX USB-C PD battery users to lighten your pack while on business trips.
IDX also previewed a new product that will be available later this summer, the IDX UC-PD6. The UC-PD6 allows IDX USB-C PD battery users to charge up to six (6) batteries or other portable devices with a USB-C PD port simultaneously with up to 440W power. The UC-PD6 is USB-C PD 3.1 compliant standard and utilizes dynamic power distribution output management to provide one channel of charging up to 140W and the remaining five (5) channels charging up to 100W when using a single port. When simultaneously charging multiple devices on multiple channels, the dynamic power distribution manages the channel power output according to the USB-C port needs. The IDX UC-PD6 is compatible with IDX batteries equipped with the USB-C PD port: V-Mount batteries - DUO-CP series (DUO-C98P, DUO-C150P, DUO-C198P), IMicro Series (IMicro-50P, IMicro-98P, IMicro-150P), Gold Mount batteries - Zenith Series (ZEN-C98G, ZEN-C150G), B-Mount batteries: - (HV-160B, HV-320B), Sony SB-U Series batteries (SB-U50PD, SB-U98PD), Sony SL-F PD Series batteries (SLF-50PD, SL-F70PD).
DX is committed to providing innovative battery and charging solutions that utilize the USB-C PD output, allowing the IDX user to have quick and efficient power and delivery solutions
IDX also went big! With the new IDX CUE-J300 battery for those applications where greater battery power is needed. IDX CUE-J300 comes standard with 2x D-Tap output rated at 100W max to power 12V accessories taking a high load. In addition, the IDX CUE-J300 V-mount battery provides the user with a 5-level LED display battery charge status indicator which can be checked with a simple button push. (When ●●●●● battery is Fully charged) (When ● battery charging is required).
The IDX CUE-J300’s impressive performance is perfect for use with high-draw lights, power hungry cameras, and suitable for all types of productions. Users will not find themselves short on power with our IDX CUE-J300 which will be available from June 1, 2025.
And of course, IDX continues to make additional accessories for our IDX B-Mount line with the addition of the A-HS30B B-Mount to B-Mount Hot-Swap Plate. Swap your batteries out without needing to switch off your camera using this A-HS30B B-Mount to B-Mount Hot Swap Plate.
