Fujinon CFC-12-990 Remote Flexible Focus Cable ENG EFP Lens 990mm 40in

The Fujinon CFC-12-990 is a remote flexible mechanical cable designed for use with Fujinon ENG and EFP broadcast lenses. It measures approximately 990mm (40 inches) tip-to-tip and transmits rotational motion between a remote demand unit and a lens drive port, allowing a camera operator or assistant to make smooth focus or zoom adjustments from a position away from the lens itself.

Applications

Remote flexible cables like the CFC-12-990 are standard accessories in broadcast ENG (Electronic News Gathering) and EFP (Electronic Field Production) lens systems. They connect a separately mounted demand unit — such as a zoom or focus demand — to the lens's mechanical drive port, routing around camera bodies, rigs, or support systems where a direct connection would be impractical. This allows a focus puller or second operator to control lens functions remotely, which is common on studio rigs, shoulder-mount configurations with extended follow-focus setups, and multi-camera production rigs. Fujinon has long supplied these cables as part of its ENG/EFP lens accessory ecosystem, and the 990mm (40-inch) length suits a wide range of rig configurations.
