The GX12 connector provides a more robust and secure connection than a standard DC barrel, preventing accidental power loss during a long imaging session. With a 10A maximum current rating, this cable safely handles the power requirements of these mounts under full load.\u003c\/p\u003e\n        \u003c\/div\u003e\n      \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"DAV-accordion\"\u003e\n      \u003ch3 class=\"DAV-accordion-Q\"\u003eWhat is the primary purpose of the 2.5x5.5mm to GX12 adapter cable?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"DAV-accordion-A\"\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eThis cable is designed specifically to connect a power source with a standard 2.5mm x 5.5mm male barrel plug to the locking GX12 power input port on Pegasus Astro NYX-88 and NYX-101 mounts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"DAV-accordion\"\u003e\n      \u003ch3 class=\"DAV-accordion-Q\"\u003eCan I use this GX12 adapter cable with my Ultimate Powerbox?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003c\/div\u003e\n    \u003cdiv class=\"DAV-accordion-A\"\u003e\n      \u003cp\u003eYes.
