PD-Connex RX42 - Professional Shielded Microphone Cable, 2 Conductors, 100m

The PD-Connex RX42 is a high-quality audio cable designed specifically for professional applications where signal integrity is paramount. Presented on a convenient 100-meter reel, this two-conductor cable is the ideal choice for recording studios, live sound engineers, installers, and audio enthusiasts who need to build their own custom cables with maximum reliability. Its noise-free construction ensures clean, interference-free audio transmission, preserving the purity and detail of the original sound.

The internal structure of the RX42 features two center conductors and effective individual shielding that protects the signal against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI). This makes it perfectly suited for both balanced audio systems, which minimize noise over long runs, and unbalanced systems. The outer casing, made of a smooth, flexible yet robust PVC compound, provides excellent mechanical protection and facilitates handling and installation in any environment.

Main Features

• 2-Conductor Construction: Ideal for stereo or balanced audio signals, such as those from microphones or line-level equipment.
• Effective Shielding: High-density individual shielding protects the signal from external noise and interference, ensuring crisp and clear audio transmission.
• Durable PVC Cover: Offers great durability and flexibility, resisting wear and tear from continuous use on stages, tours or in studios.
• 100m Reel Format: Supplied in a 100-meter roll, perfect for large-scale wiring projects or for always having quality material on hand for repairs and custom assemblies.
• Universal Compatibility: Designed to be soldered with all types of professional audio connectors, such as XLR, 6.35 mm or 3.5 mm jack (TRS).

Benefits for the Sound Professional

The PD-Connex RX42 cable offers a reliable and versatile solution for any audio professional. Its main benefit is the peace of mind that comes from knowing the audio signal will remain pure from source to destination. The ability to create custom-length cables allows for optimized connections, eliminating excess cable and potential signal loops. Its robust construction ensures a long lifespan, even under the most demanding conditions of a tour or live event, representing a smart and lasting investment.

Use Cases

This cable is the perfect foundation for a multitude of applications in the professional audio world. It's ideal for creating custom microphone cables for recording studios, stages, and rehearsal rooms. It's also an excellent choice for internal wiring of effects racks and patchbays, and for creating line-level connections between mixing consoles, audio interfaces, preamps, and studio monitors. Furthermore, its roll format makes it the perfect solution for permanent audio installations in theaters, auditoriums, conference rooms, and entertainment venues.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this cable suitable for DMX lighting signals?
No. This cable is optimized for low-impedance analog audio signals. For DMX data transmission, a dedicated cable with an impedance of 110-120 ohms is recommended to ensure error-free communication.

Is it flexible enough for frequent use in various settings?
Yes. Its PVC outer cover has been designed to offer a good balance between strength and flexibility, making it easy to roll up and handle constantly in live environments.

What type of connectors can be soldered to this cable?
It is fully compatible with standard audio connectors that require soldering, including male/female XLR connectors and 6.35mm and 3.5mm Jack (TS or TRS) connectors.

Is the shielding mesh or foil type?
The shielding of this cable consists of a braid of copper wires (28 wires of 0.12 mm), which provides excellent coverage and superior flexibility compared to foil shielding.
