Overview & Features
ASF-G XLR – Enclosure Hydrophone
The professional Ambient enclosure mounted Hydrophone. In addition to the hydrophone, the ASF-G-XLR set also contains an active connection cable to XLR (ASFGPH). An XLR connection with 48 V phantom power is required.
Add professional sound to your camera
With the ASF-G we use parts of the ASF-1 technology to create an affordable, easy to use, yet great sounding hydrophone to be used directly on camera enclosures. With approximately 60dB better Signal to Noise Ratio than any enclosure hydrophone we found on the market, the ASF-G sets new standards. With a frequency range of 70Hz-20kHz we designed a microphone able to capture the whole spectrum of sounds while effectively avoiding low frequency noise created by camera handling.
The hydrophone is compatible with most professional camera housings, thanks to its M14 thread, and easily mounted on standard bulkhead ports. Due to its compact size, the ASF-G only adds 4 cm to the housing. The ASF-G is machined out of high-quality Aluminum, anodized and can easily withstand the water pressure of 100m depth
Hydrophone cable
ASFG35DC: a 3.5 mm jack connection cable is already included
in the scope of delivery for connection to the camera. Thanks to a
cable for external power supply, the ASF-G works with any camera that
has a microphone connector.
ASFGPH: the ASF-G-XLR set also contains an active connection cable to XLR
(ASFGPH). An XLR connection with 48 V phantom power is required.
