Benro Polaris Charging Cable

The Benro Polaris Charging Cable is a dedicated, high-amperage power delivery cable custom-engineered to replenish the internal battery of the Polaris smart tracking system. Featuring a universal USB Type-C connector on both ends, this specialized cable is optimized for the power-hungry charging requirements of automated, motorized tripod heads, ensuring your electronic multi-axis panning rig receives a clean and efficient current flow.

Critical Operational Note: This cable is engineered strictly for high-efficiency battery charging and power supply lines; it contains no internal data lanes and does not support data transfer, firmware updates, or tethered camera communication.

Product Features in Detail

Dedicated Polaris High-Current Charging
This cable is custom-tailored to handle the continuous, high-current flow needed to charge the large internal batteries of the Polaris Smart Head series. Its internal conductors are optimized to minimize voltage drops across the wire, ensuring your automated tracking head charges at its maximum rated speed when plugged into an appropriate power source.

Universal USB Type-C Male-to-Male Interface
Equipped with reversible USB Type-C male connectors on both ends, this cable eliminates the hassle of upside-down plugging. It plugs directly into modern Type-C power bricks, high-capacity portable power banks, and multi-port charging hubs, allowing you to charge your smart head easily in the studio or out in the field.

Purpose-Built Power-Only Core Architecture
By deliberately isolating the internal wiring to power delivery only, this cable eliminates data-syncing handshakes that can sometimes confuse connected devices. This streamlined architecture ensures that when the Polaris head is plugged in, its internal battery management circuit instantly focuses 100% of the incoming current on rapid replenishment without software interruptions.

Rugged Molded Strain-Relief Connectors
Built to withstand the physical demands of frequent packing and on-location shooting, both USB-C heads feature heavy-duty, molded polymer strain-relief boots. These elongated collars distribute bending stresses evenly across the joint, preventing internal core breakage or frayed connections from repetitive twists and pulls.

Flexible and Abrasion-Resistant Jacket
The exterior of the cable is wrapped in a highly flexible, durable protective jacket that resists tangles and knots. It remains pliable even in cold weather conditions, allowing you to route it cleanly from a base-mounted battery pack to the smart head's charging port without creating stiff, wind-catching loops.

Critical Field-Kit Separation Tool
Having a dedicated, power-only cable in your production bag prevents accidental data-looping issues on set. It serves as a reliable power connection for long time-lapse sessions, multi-day astrophotography shoots, or landscape tracking assignments, letting you run or recharge your automated motorized head from an external power supply safely.
