Audibax Silver Black 3 Pin 1 m - DMX cable with black XLR connectors for professional lighting

The Audibax Silver Black 3-Pin 1m is a high-performance DMX cable designed to connect controllers and lighting fixtures in stage, live, and permanent installations. It features 3-pin XLR connectors (male to female) with 24K gold-plated contacts for stable conductivity and enhanced corrosion resistance. Its flexible PVC jacket and 5.4mm outer diameter facilitate routing in racks, trusses, and short patch cables on power strips or backlines, while the low-noise design and meticulous construction of the Silver Black series ensure clean and consistent DMX data transmission, even under intensive rental and tourism environments.

Main features

• Connection: XLR 3-pin male to XLR 3-pin female
• Length: 1 m
• Series: Silver Black
• Contacts: 24K gold plated
• Cable outer diameter: 5.4 mm
• Inner conductor cross-section (XLR): 0.21 mm
• Cover: Highly flexible PVC
• Color: Black
• Design: Low noise, full dynamic reproduction
• Use: DMX lighting data transmission (RS-485)

Product benefits

• Signal reliability: careful construction and gold-plated contacts that minimize losses, noise, and interference in the DMX chain.
• Stable and durable connections: The Silver Black series XLR connectors withstand repeated live and rental connection cycles.
• Quick installation: 1 meter length ideal for rack patch, short bridges between equipment and tidy cabling.
• Convenient handling: flexible PVC sleeve and contained diameter for tight bends and truss mounting.

Use cases

• Short patch between DMX controller and splitter in the FOH rack.
• Bridge adjacent moving heads, LED PARs or dimmers on truss.
• Testing and maintenance links in studios or rental warehouses.
• Interconnection in fixed installations (bars, theaters, temples, auditoriums) where a reliable and discreet patch cord is required.

Frequently Asked Questions

• Is this cable suitable for XLR audio? It's not recommended. DMX cables are optimized for lighting data; for microphones or audio lines, use a dedicated balanced audio cable.
• Is it compatible with RDM? Yes, the same physical DMX link (RS-485) allows RDM communication as long as the equipment supports it.
• Can I mix 3-pin and 5-pin connectors? Yes, with suitable 3-to-5-pin adapters depending on the lighting hardware.
• Do I need a DMX terminator? It is recommended to place a terminator on the last device in the chain to avoid signal reflections.

Installation recommendations

• Daisy-chain type connection (DMX OUT output → DMX IN input of the next device), avoiding star branching if you do not use a splitter.
• For long runs or many devices on the same line, use DMX splitters/amplifiers and properly terminate the line.
• Do not replace DMX cable with microphone: the impedance and construction are different and it can cause data errors.
