PROEL PH100LU10 - Professional Hybrid Power and Audio Cable for Active Speakers (10 Meters)
Optimize your sound setups and eliminate cable clutter on stage with the PROEL PH100LU10 . This high-end hybrid cable, technically known as a "Phono-Rete," has been meticulously designed by Proel to offer the ultimate "two-in-one" solution. It combines balanced audio signal transmission and power in a single flexible cable, ideal for quickly and securely connecting active speakers, stage monitors, and compatible lighting equipment.
The engineering behind the PH100LU10 ensures that the audio signal travels interference-free, even when running parallel to the electrical current, thanks to its advanced shielding and individual conductor insulation. With a length of 10 meters , it offers the necessary flexibility for installations on medium and large stages, cutting setup time in half by eliminating the need to run separate power and signal lines.
Main features
-
Intelligent Hybrid Design: Integrates three individually insulated current conductors (Phase, Neutral and Ground) and a pair of shielded conductors for the audio signal, all under one rugged cover.
-
Professional Connectivity:
-
Source End (Tabletop/Wall Outlet): Schuko 16A power connector and XLR Female audio connector (to receive signal from the table or patch panel).
-
Destination End (Speaker Input): Three-pole IEC (type C13) power connector and male XLR audio connector (for connecting to the speaker input).
-
High Quality Isolation: The audio section features specific shielding to prevent the 50Hz "hum" typical of power lines, ensuring a clean and crystal clear sound.
-
Robust Construction: Made with flexible yet durable materials, capable of withstanding trampling and heavy use on tours and live events.
Benefits for the technician and the musician
Using the PROEL PH100LU10 transforms stage logistics. Its main benefit is visual and operational cleanliness : where you previously needed two cables and probably tape to hold them together, you now have a single, sleek, and professional line. This not only improves aesthetics but also drastically reduces the risk of tripping hazards and makes packing up equipment at the end of the event much easier.
Furthermore, because it's a factory-assembled cable by Proel, common soldering or manual assembly errors are eliminated. Signal integrity and electrical safety are guaranteed, allowing you to focus on mixing or performing, not troubleshooting wiring issues.
Use cases
-
Portable PA systems: Quick connection of "Full Range" active speakers on tripods without separate hanging cables.
-
Stage monitors: Ideal for bringing mix and power to the floor monitors (wedges) of the musicians with a low and discreet profile.
-
DJ booths: Neat cable management for active booth monitors.
-
Rental and event companies: Significant time savings in the repetitive assembly and disassembly of sound systems.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Does the power cable introduce noise into the audio?
No. The cable is designed with internal shielding that isolates the signal conductors from the power conductors, blocking electromagnetic induction.
-
What type of IEC connector does it have?
It incorporates a standard IEC connector (commonly known as a computer connector or C13), which is the standard on the vast majority of active speakers on the market.
-
Can I use it for DMX lighting?
Although it is designed for audio (3-pin XLR), many technicians use it for spotlights that accept 3-pin XLR and IEC power, as long as the impedance is compatible for short runs.
-
What is the current capacity?
The Schuko connector is rated for 16A, and the internal conductors are usually 1.5mm², which is more than enough to power any modern high-power active speaker.
Project description
Supply of pre-assembled hybrid cabling for interconnecting self-powered electroacoustic systems. The cable shall integrate, within a single flexible cable, power conductors (3 x 1.5 mm² conductors) and a balanced audio signal line (2 conductors plus shield). The total length shall be 10 meters. Terminations shall include, at the service entrance, a standard 16A Schuko connector and a 3-pin female XLR connector with a metal housing; at the device end, a 3-pin female IEC (C13) connector and a 3-pin male XLR connector with a metal housing. The cable shall provide galvanic isolation and shielding to prevent electromagnetic interference between the power and signal lines. Exterior finish in matte black.
