XLR cable 5-pin 3 meter

Description

Want to rent an XLR cable 5-pin 3 meter? Do you want to control professional lighting during your event? Then you probably need to use DMX. An old protocol that is still relevant today. If your lights have two 5-pin connections on the back of the housing, you can assume they are suitable for controlling with a lighting console via DMX. To get the DMX signal from the lighting console to the fixtures, you need the right cabling. Our 5-pin XLR cables can help you send this data to your lights. In addition to the XLR cable 5-pin 3 meter, we also have these in 5 meter, 10 meter and 20 meter.

What can I use the XLR cable 5-pin 3 meter for?

To get DMX signal from the lighting console to the lights, we use cables. Most professional fixtures have 5-pin DMX input and output. There are also lights with 3-pin connections, so you always need to pay attention to which type of cable you need.

When setting up a DMX line, you often start at the lighting console. Here you plug the XLR cable into the DMX output of the controller and then plug the other end into the first light. You often use a long cable for this. Between the fixtures, you often use short cables, such as the XLR cable 5-pin 3 meter. You use the daisy-chain principle here. Through the DMX input and output on the fixture, you can easily daisy-chain the control signal from light to light.

What are the specifications of the XLR cable 5-pin 3 meter?

This XLR cable 5-pin 3 meter is equipped with a male connector on one end and a female connector on the other end, allowing you to easily connect multiple cables to reach the desired length. For the connectors, we use Neutrik, a brand known for its robust and reliable products, perfect for rental and touring applications.

The cable itself is of the type Tasker C862, a high-quality 5-pin cable that offers a resistance of 110 ohms. This specific resistance is crucial because it prevents disturbances in the DMX line by avoiding signal reflections. Thanks to the strong construction and reliable connectors, you can trust that this cable will continue to perform under harsh conditions.
