CBTG1BG Push-Pull Connector for Cinema Cameras 2026: CBTG1BG-SMSM06-D52B and CBZG1BG-SFSM14-0000 for Premium Cinematography and Video Broadcast for Indian Customers
The CBTG1BG-SMSM06-D52B is a CBTG1BG push-pull connector for cinema cameras — a 1B 6-pin plug rated 7A for run/stop triggers and motorized follow-focus, mated through the same family to the 14-pin CBZG1BG-SFSM14-0000 master umbilical socket on camera breakout boxes, with gold-plated contacts rated for over 5,000 mating cycles. Every specification in this guide is backed by the cinema camera interconnect engineering of Spring Technology.
Pain point: Mapping the peripheral electronics of high-end digital cinema cameras — where camera run/stop triggers, wireless follow-focus motors and remote zoom/iris controls need swift current bursts and clean serial feedback, while the camera body links to breakout boxes, metadata loggers and broadcast switchers through one master umbilical port?
Core answer: For Indian customers, Spring Technology supplied a CBTG1BG push-pull connector for cinema cameras: the 6-pin CBTG1BG-SMSM06-D52B plug and the 14-pin CBZG1BG-SFSM14-0000 socket. This combination maps out perfectly on high-end digital cinema camera setups (like ARRI Alexa, RED or Sony Venice rigs) and their peripheral monitoring cages.
1. Technical Parameters & Engineering Standards
This cinema camera connector pair combines the TGG.1B straight plug and the ZGG.1B fixed socket. The 6-pin plug builds run/stop and follow-focus cables; the 14-pin socket serves as the camera’s master umbilical port.

2. Cinema Camera Connector Design Highlights
Digital cinema cameras surround themselves with focus motors, triggers, loggers and switchers. The design highlights below are why this CBTG1BG push-pull connector for cinema cameras is specified for premium rigs:
- 6-pin run/stop and follow-focus cable — the plug builds cables for camera run/stop trigger systems, dual-channel wireless follow-focus motors and remote zoom/iris controls.
- 7A swift current bursts — the 7A rating drives motorized lens focus rings with swift bursts of current while maintaining clean serial data feedback loops.
- 14-pin master umbilical socket — the high-density socket mounts on the camera’s breakout box or a smart battery gold-mount plate, serving as the master umbilical port.
- Broadcast van integration — connects the camera body to a localized metadata logger or multi-line video control switchers inside a broadcast production van.
- Gold-plated contacts — stable power and clean serial data paths across the camera rig.
- Proven durability — >5,000 mating cycles for daily on-set rigging.
