  • TypeCables
  • 65-foot length covers long runs between fixtures
  • Twisted 22AWG pair keeps digital signals clean
  • Double copper braid plus foil gives 100% shield coverage
  • 110-120 ohm nominal impedance matches DMX and AES/EBU specs
  • Male-to-female 3-pin XLR ends ready for standard lighting chains

Professional DMX and AES/EBU cable

This 65-foot cable carries digital DMX lighting control or AES/EBU audio signals between fixtures, desks and interfaces. It is built for stage, studio and installation work where reliable data transmission matters. The 3-pin XLR male-to-female layout matches standard professional lighting and audio gear. Installers and touring technicians will find it suited to fixed runs and mobile rigs alike.

22AWG twisted pair with 100% shielding

Twin 22AWG conductors carry the signal with a nominal 110-120 ohm impedance that matches DMX and AES/EBU requirements. Double shielding — copper braid plus aluminum foil — gives 100% coverage against electromagnetic interference in crowded rack or truss environments. The construction handles long runs up to the supplied length without signal degradation. Beyond this distance a repeater or splitter becomes necessary.

Tour-ready XLR connectors and lifetime cover

Male and female 3-pin XLR ends lock securely and survive repeated connection cycles on the road. The cable jacket resists abrasion and kinking during load-in, load-out and permanent installs. A limited lifetime warranty backs the build quality for the working life of the cable. Users needing 5-pin DMX or multipair snake configurations will need a different product.

Questions about this item

Will this 3-pin XLR cable work with my older DMX fixtures that use 5-pin connectors?

This cable has 3-pin male and female XLR ends; you would need a separate 3-pin to 5-pin adapter to connect it directly to 5-pin fixtures.

How can I verify the cable is transmitting DMX data correctly after I connect it?

Check that your lighting console shows a stable signal on the linked universe and that all fixtures respond without flicker or dropout across the full 65-foot run.

Does the box include any adapters or terminators, or must I buy them separately?

The cable ships with only the 3-pin male-to-female XLR assembly; DMX terminators and any 3-pin to 5-pin adapters are sold separately.
