Core SWX Partners with MultiDyne to integrate Helix battery plates into their SilverBack-APE 24vdc device

Core SWX has collaborated with MultiDyne, the industry leader in signal conversion and fiber-optic-based transport systems, to integrate Helix battery plates into the SilverBack-APE 24vdc device.

This partnership leverages Core SWX’s Helix, Native Dual Voltage battery system to allow for seamless high voltage integration on the Silverback-APE. This enhances the capabilities of digital cinema cameras such as the ARRI Alexa 35 and RED Raptor XL and allows them to be used as studio cameras.

The Helix battery system delivers native high voltage to compatible devices when Helix Max batteries are paired with a Helix battery plate. Additionally, the Helix Max packs can function as a native 14v pack when used with 14v powered devices.

The MultiDyne Silverback-APE 24vdc is designed specifically to meet the high voltage requirements of digital cinema cameras.
