Convergent Design Accessories
ODYSSEY HOOD (CD-OD-HOOD)
The Convergent Design Odyssey Hood is a flexible three-sided sunshade for the Odyssey7 and Odyssey7Q.
It attaches to the side 1/4-20 mount sockets on the Odyssey. If there is another item such as a mount that
uses these side sockets, the Odyssey Hood's bolts can be removed and the other item's bolts can be passed
through the Hood into the Odyssey. The Odyssey Hood folds flat for storage and can rest atop the Odyssey
within the Odyssey Case. When the Hood is folded the mounting bolts do not protrude long enough to make
contact with any surface, so as not to scratch the Odyssey screen in transport.
ODYSSEY ALUMINUM TABLE STAND (CD-OD-AL-TS)
The Convergent Design Odyssey Aluminum Table Stand attaches to the Odyssey7 or Odyssey7Q. While only
five ounces, it is tall enough to protect the cables and connectors attached to the bottom of an Odyssey.
The design tilts back the screen for comfortable viewing while also centering the weight over the stand for
balance.
The stand can support an Odyssey alone or with any Convergent Design battery mount with full clearance
and stability. There is also a standard 5/8" socket with tie-down bolt to mount the stand onto a standard light
stand or baby pin. The stand also functions as a "chest offset" when an Odyssey is worn with a neck strap so
the operator doesn't have to look uncomfortably straight down.
ODYSSEY CASE (CD-OD-CASE)
The Convergent Design Odyssey Case is based on a Nanuk 910 with custom foam insert. The use of rigid foam
means less is needed for protecting the gear and it can be precision cut. The main cutout for an Odyssey7
or Odyssey7Q includes removable layers of rigid foam to allow the Odyssey to fit snugly when bare or with
a variety of battery plates and 3rd party accessory mounts. This includes all Convergent Design mounting
plates, including the Teradek Bolt Adapter Plate, complete with wireless receivers mounted and all cables
plugged in. An additional cutout is large enough to hold SSDs, cables, USB adapter, batteries, Teradek Bolt
transmitters, etc.
ODYSSEY ULTRA-THIN SDI CABLE (CD-OD-SDI)
The Odyssey Ultra-Thin SDI Cable is a flexible and lightweight cable for use with the Odyssey7 and
Odyssey7Q. The SDI cable is rated for 3G signals and is useful in camera-mounted installations where its
thinness and flexibility will help keep it out of the way for operators. Despite its small size, the SDI Cable is
quite rugged and can even be tied in knots without effecting performance. Standard lengths are 18" and 36"
with custom lengths available by special order.
ODYSSEY UTILITY DRIVE (CD-SSD-UTILITY)
The Odyssey Utility Drive is designed as a lower cost alternative to the Odyssey Premium SSD media for
secondary tasks. The Odyssey Utility Drive can be used for Odyssey7 & 7Q firmware updates, Odyssey7Q
3D-LUT files and other future functionality. The Odyssey Utility Drive will not record video files. It is intended
for Odyssey7 & 7Q owners who do not wish to tie up an Odyssey SSD with utility features, or for Odyssey7
& 7Q owners who use their devices as monitors and do not need to purchase the more expensive recording
media.
ODYSSEY SSD TO USB 3.0 ADAPTER (CD-SSD-USB3)
To connect an Odyssey SSD to a computer for downloading files, the computer needs to be able to mount
an eSata 2.0 connection. For computers without such connectivity, the Convergent Design SSD to USB 3.0
Adapter is an inexpensive cable-style adapter to allow the Odyssey SSD to connect to a USB 3.0 port. 6Ghz
transfer speed. NOTE: While the Convergent Design USB 3.0 Adapter can be connected to a USB 2.0 port,
download speeds will be extremely slow, requiring many hours to offload an SSD.
