How to connect Immersion 600mw tx to existing FPV system

Okay so I have the FatShark Attitude V2 bundle (http://www.getfpv.com/fpv/video-goggles/fatshark-attitude-v2-fcc-certified-fpv-bundle.html) which is great but I am looking to get a little more range and want to step up to a more powerful tx. Everyone has recommended the Immersion RC 600 mw 5.8 tx (http://www.getfpv.com/5-8ghz-600mw-video-tx.html) but my question is what cables do I need to plug this into my current system (camera and power filter). The camera is this one (http://www.getfpv.com/fat-shark-600tvl-cmos-cam.html) and the power filter is this one (http://www.getfpv.com/filtered-balance-lead-power-supply.html). It looks like the Immersion RC tx (which claims to be compatible with FatShark brank equipment) has a cable with no connector, just bare wires on the end that would plug into the camera. Are these things compatible?

The immersion transmitter will come with a cable you can use to solder a harness together. If not this cable should get you working

The power cable supplied with the transmitter needs to be wired into your power source. The cable comes with the transmitter but you will need to either solder it to your PDB or wire harness, or solder a balance plug on it. Personal preference really. Or if you don't want to mess with it you could get this...

it is plug and play with the immersion or fatshark Tx.

It's totally plug and play. The connector from your battery filter will plug into the left side of the TX, in the GND BATT slot, and your camera will plug into the wider slot on the right of the TX. Easy peasy. You could solder your own harness together, the filter isn't needed since the Immersion has it's own built in, but it won't hurt if you have the extra space and don't mind the weight.
