The iPhone 15 & 16 Pro/Pro Max took mobile video to the next level. The challenge with mobile video, however, has always been rigging out the phone to accommodate pro workflows with a sensibly sized yet purpose-built rig. The KONDOR Blue USB-C Media Hub sets out to tackle several of these challenges by combining many of the constraints into a single product.

The USB-C Media Hub connects to your iPhone via a removable USB C cable that nests neatly inside a NATO Rail. This helps to protect the cable end from unwanted disconnection or damage. The hub has three additional USB C ports that allow for PD (Power Delivery), audio signal, SSD Media, and a full sized HDMI port for video monitoring. The HDMI port will require PD power in most use cases.

Each edge of the hub is an industry-standard NATO rail that works great for attaching handles, magic arms, or other rigging configurations. The front face has a cold shoe for audio receivers. The back has a ¼”-20 with male/female anti-twist options (2x 3mm ARRI style anti-twist pins are stored in the back). Designed with the Stalman Clamp and Angelbird Recording Modules in mind, the Media Hub neatly mounts to the back of the Stalman Clamp.

The USB-C Media Hub doesn’t need to be limited just to iPhones. It can also be used with your computer or other USB-C-capable devices and retains all functionality, including power passthrough. The audio and monitoring ports can also be used as additional media ports.

This HUB can sustain breathtaking read/write speeds from 750 up to 1,000 MB's which is more than twice as fast as what is needed on the iPhone under maximum quality settings. We used 10Gbps technology to allow for more flexibility on computers and future proofing for the next generation of iPhones.
