PROEL PH100LU15 - Hybrid Power and Audio Cable for Active Speakers (15 Meters)
Optimize your professional sound setups and eliminate cable clutter on stage with the PROEL PH100LU15 . This highly engineered hybrid cable, known as a "Phono-Rete," integrates balanced audio signal transmission and power into a single flexible cable. Designed specifically for connecting powered (active) speakers, stage monitors, and compatible lighting equipment, it offers a practical and reliable solution for reducing setup and teardown times.
Measuring 15 meters in length, this cable allows you to cover considerable distances in large venues or auditoriums without the need for additional extensions. Its internal construction physically separates the power lines from the audio lines, ensuring that electrical current does not interfere with the purity of the sound signal. It is the ultimate tool for sound engineers, rental companies, and bands seeking efficiency and a clean, uncluttered look in their setups.
Main features
-
"All-in-One" Hybrid Design: Combines a mains power cable (3 conductors) and a balanced audio cable (2 conductors + shield) under one protective cover.
-
High Quality Insulation: The current conductors are individually insulated, and the audio line has its own shielding to prevent parasitic noise, hum, or electromagnetic interference (EMI) generated by the electrical flow.
-
Professional Connectors:
-
Power Supply End (A): 16A Schuko plug (European standard) for wall socket and 3-pin female XLR connector for mixer or soundboard output.
-
Destination End (B): IEC power connector (EC three-pole / C13) and 3-pin male XLR connector for active speaker input.
-
Flexibility and Resistance: The flexible PVC outer cover is designed to withstand heavy use on tours, resisting trampling, twisting and the usual dragging on stages.
Product benefits
Using the PROEL PH100LU15 transforms the logistics of any event. By cutting the amount of cables lying on the floor in half, it not only improves the stage's visual appeal but also increases safety by minimizing the risk of tripping. For the sound engineer, it means a much faster cleanup at the end of the show: just one cable to coil up instead of two separate ones. Furthermore, because it's factory-assembled by Proel, it guarantees strong solder joints and reliable electrical continuity, superior to DIY solutions using cable ties or tape.
Use cases
-
Live sound reinforcement: Direct connection from the mixing console or stage box to the main PA speakers (L/R).
-
Floor monitors: Power and signal for active wedge monitors on stage, keeping the musicians' area clear.
-
Fixed and mobile installations: Ideal for mobile discos, DJ sets and corporate presentations where speed of assembly and a professional image are crucial.
-
Lighting: Compatible with certain DMX lighting equipment that requires power and a 3-pin XLR signal (checking pin compatibility).
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the power cable induce noise in the audio signal?
No. The cable is designed with specific shielding and internal physical separation of the conductors to ensure that the flow of alternating current does not generate induction or audible noise in the balanced signal line.
Does it work with any active speaker?
It is compatible with the vast majority of professional speakers on the market that use IEC power input (the "computer" or "kettle" type connector) and XLR audio input.
What is its load capacity?
The Schuko connector is rated for 16A and Proel cables in this series typically use generously sized power conductors (usually 1.5 mm²) to easily handle the demands of high-power speakers.
Project description
15-meter assembled hybrid cable for power and balanced audio signal. It integrates three 1.5 mm² power conductors and a shielded audio pair for interference immunity within a single flexible PVC jacket. One end is terminated with a 16A Schuko connector and a 3-pin female XLR connector, while the other end features a three-pole IEC (C13) connector and a 3-pin male XLR connector. Designed for the quick and reliable interconnection of professional active speaker systems.
