Whether you are streaming outdoors, running a studio production, or building a portable live streaming kit, the YoloBox Ultra Cage gives you more control over your workflow. As a result, you can create a more flexible setup for different situations.

What’s Included in the YoloBox Ultra Cage Package?

Before installation, let’s check everything included in the package. First, you will find the main cage and installation accessories inside the box. For example, you will find:

• One custom-fit YoloBox Ultra Cage
• One Sunhood
• Two L-shaped Allen wrenches:
  • 2.5 mm Allen wrench
  • 4 mm Allen wrench
• Four M3×8 screws
• Four M3×10 screws
• Two 1/4″-20 screws
• Installation guide

At the same time, the cage provides full access to the YoloBox Ultra ports while adding multiple mounting options for your accessories.

How to Install YoloBox Ultra Cage

Step 1: Remove the Bottom Bar

First, remove the bottom bar of the cage. By doing this, you create enough space for the YoloBox Ultra to slide into the frame smoothly.

Next, use the included 2.5 mm Allen wrench to remove the two M3 screws at the bottom. At this stage, turn the screws counter-clockwise, then carefully slide the bottom bar away from the cage.

Step 2: Insert Your YoloBox Ultra into the Cage

Next, place the cage face down. Then, carefully slide your YoloBox Ultra into the cage with the screen facing down.

After that, attach the bottom bar again and tighten the screws to secure the frame.

Step 3: Lock the YoloBox Ultra in Place

After securing the main frame, there is one more important step.

At this point, use the 4 mm Allen wrench to tighten the 1/4″-20 screw into the bottom mounting hole.

This screw locks the YoloBox Ultra firmly inside the cage. As a result, it helps prevent unwanted movement or wobble during live production.

Attach the Sun Hood

For added convenience, the YoloBox Ultra Cage includes dedicated magnetic areas on both sides for the quick-release sun hood.

To install the sun hood:

1. Align the metal plates on the sun hood with the magnetic areas on the cage.
2. Let the hood snap into place.

Because of the magnetic design, installation becomes fast and convenient. Also, you can remove the sun hood quickly whenever your shooting environment changes.

More importantly, the sun hood helps keep your screen visible under direct sunlight or strong studio lighting. In addition, you can attach or remove it quickly without taking your YoloBox Ultra off the tripod.

Besides that, the magnetic side areas also work as a built-in tool holder. For example, you can attach the Allen wrench directly to the side of the cage when not using it.

Mount YoloBox Ultra Cage on a Tripod

In addition, the YoloBox Ultra Cage supports flexible tripod setups for different streaming situations.

To create this setup, you need:

• YoloBox Ultra with the Cage
• Two SmallRig Magic Arms with Cold Shoes and Crab-Shaped Clamps

Step 1: Attach the Magic Arms

First, connect the magic arm to the crab-shaped clamp. After that, thread the magic arm into the clamp until it is secure.

Step 2: Connect the Magic Arms to the Cage

Next, screw one end of each magic arm into the mounting holes on the back rail of the cage.

Then, use the crab-shaped clamps to attach the arms securely to your tripod.

Step 3: Adjust Your Viewing Angle

Once both magic arms are installed, you can easily adjust the angle of your YoloBox Ultra screen. Therefore, you can find a better viewing position for live streaming.

Finally, attach the sunshade for better outdoor visibility.

Adjustable Cable Clamp for Port Protection

The top rail includes an adjustable cable clamp with a 46mm (1.57-inch) sliding range. Besides, it supports different cable sizes and helps protect the YoloBox Ultra I/O ports.

During live streams, the cable clamp can reduce accidental cable movement and help keep your connections stable.

Lightweight and Durable Aluminum Design

The YoloBox Ultra Cage uses aviation-grade aluminum alloy with precision CNC machining. So this creates a strong yet lightweight frame that protects your device without adding unnecessary bulk.

The cage also features a 180-degree reversible design. Therefore, you can mount accessories upright or upside down depending on your setup.

Build a More Flexible Live Streaming Setup

The YoloBox Ultra Cage is more than a protective frame. It is an expansion platform designed for creators who need more flexibility during live production.

With improved protection, quick accessory mounting, cable management, and a portable design, the cage helps you adapt your YoloBox Ultra for different shooting environments.

From outdoor broadcasts to studio productions, the YoloBox Ultra Cage gives you more options to create the setup that works best for your workflow.

Final Thoughts

Overall, installing the YoloBox Ultra Cage only takes a few simple steps.

First, remove the bottom bar and place your YoloBox Ultra inside the cage. Next, secure the screws and lock the device with the 1/4″-20 mounting screw. Finally, attach the magnetic sun hood and mount your accessories.

After installation, your YoloBox Ultra becomes more protected and easier to expand. As a result, you can prepare your setup for a wider range of live streaming scenarios.

With the YoloBox Ultra Cage, creators can build a cleaner, stronger, and more flexible live production setup. At the same time, you can adapt your YoloBox Ultra to match your unique production needs and bring your creative ideas to life.
