question
Is there a longer cable than the 12 ? I was going to put the battery plate on my shoulder mount and i don't think it will reach from the camera to that.
Yes there is. Switronix makes an extension cable for this battery. We even have the Blackmagic Camera Powerbase DLX Kit which includes the battery, charger and the 24 Extension Cable. You can also purchase the extension cable separately.

It should be .. It depends on the adaptor but the battery itself is a universal brick and not confined to black magic products alone.

question
will this work on JVC GY-HM200 4KCAM?
Sorry, the JVC GY-HM200 has a different pin configuration and cannot be used with this. A search of B&H and the web returned no large battery solutions for the GY-HM200. At this point I would suggest contacting a video camera rental house and see if one of their technicians can design a set up for you.

Can you be plugged into the camera and to direct power at the same time?
No. Recommended practices for this device are to connect it to AC to charge the battery OR connect it to the camera to power that. To power camera directly from an AC power source, an AC power adapter for that particular camera is required.
