DJI Matrice 400 TB100C Tethered Battery

DJI Matrice 400 TB100C Tethered Battery

DJI engineered the DJI TB100C Tethered Battery to unlock near-infinite flight endurance for the Matrice 400 series. First, this specialized power solution combines the high-capacity 977 Wh energy of a standard flight battery with a dedicated port for wired power integration. Furthermore, it allows the aircraft to transition from battery power to a ground-based tether system seamlessly. As a result, professional teams can maintain a persistent aerial presence for hours or even days during critical surveillance, emergency lighting, or communication relay missions.

In addition, the battery supports advanced enterprise ecosystem integration. Specifically, it features reserved I/O ports designed for third-party drone docks and automated recharging solutions. Moreover, the battery retains the same rugged internal architecture as the standard TB100, including a self-heating system for extreme cold-weather reliability. Ultimately, this device eliminates the traditional constraints of flight time for stationary or slow-moving aerial operations. Therefore, the DJI TB100C Tethered Battery stands as the essential hardware link for any mission requiring a “permanent” eye in the sky.

Key Features & Highlights

• Continuous Power Delivery: This battery serves as the interface between the drone and a ground-based power station. Accordingly, you can bypass standard flight limits to provide 12+ hours of uninterrupted video surveillance or aerial lighting.

• Dual-Mode Operational Flexibility: The unit works as a high-capacity 20,254 mAh flight battery or as a tethered power bridge. Hence, you can fly to your designated altitude on battery power and then switch to a tethered line for long-duration hovering.

• Third-Party Ecosystem Ports: DJI includes specialized connectors for tethered lighting and communication modules. Furthermore, these ports facilitate the development of automated recharging stations and specialized industrial base station tools.

• Industry-Leading 977 Wh Energy: The 13S Li-ion cells maintain the high-voltage output required for the Matrice 400’s heavy payloads. Consequently, you can power large-scale searchlights or radio repeaters at high altitudes without voltage sag.

• Intelligent Self-Heating Technology: The battery automatically warms itself in temperatures as low as -20°C. Meanwhile, this ensures that your tethered setup remains operational and stable during winter deployments or high-altitude mountain missions.

• Seamless BS100 Station Compatibility: You can charge the DJI TB100C Tethered Battery in the same BS100 Intelligent Battery Station as your standard TB100 packs. As a result, you don’t need to invest in a separate charging infrastructure for your tethered fleet.

• Hot-Swap Support: The battery integrates with the Matrice 400’s internal power backup to allow for rapid transitions. Specifically, you can swap between tethered and standard flight modes without losing your GPS lock or sensor calibration.

• Professional Lifecycle Durability: Rated for up to 400 charging cycles, this battery offers long-term reliability for recurring industrial tasks. Therefore, it provides a cost-effective solution for persistent monitoring over construction sites, harbors, or event venues.
