Frequently asked questions
Can these two products work together?
No. The cable is infrastructure for powering and controlling lighting fixtures in fixed installations. The lens is an optical component for projection systems. They address completely different system needs and are not compatible with each other.
What skill level do I need for each?
The Power+Data Cable is designed for professional installers setting up permanent venue systems. The VDO Sceptron XB Lens is suitable for professional imaging and projection work, requiring knowledge of optical systems and focusing techniques.
Which one is portable?
Neither is ideal for mobile setups. The cable is optimized for permanent installations and has a fixed 5-meter length. The lens is a precision optical component designed for stable, fixed mounting in projection systems rather than frequent repositioning.
What Martin systems are these designed for?
The Power+Data Cable works with Martin Professional's integrated lighting control ecosystem using BBD connectors. The VDO Sceptron XB Lens is part of Martin's projection and imaging optical platform for precision imaging applications.
