Audibax Pro Black DMX 3 PIN 5 m - 3-pin DMX cable with braided shielding and male-female XLR connectors

Audibax Pro Black DMX 3 PIN 5 m - 3-pin DMX cable with braided shielding and male-female XLR connectors

The Audibax Pro Black DMX 3-Pin 5-meter cable is a professional-grade cable designed for stable and accurate DMX512 data transmission in lighting systems. Its low-capacitance construction and 110 Ω characteristic impedance optimize signal integrity, reduce reflections, and minimize noise in rental installations, live shows, and permanent setups. It features high-quality 3-pin XLR connectors (male-female) and a durable PVC outer jacket, with a total diameter of 6 mm for a balanced combination of robustness and flexibility during routing, winding, and transport.

The twisted pair cable with a 2 × 0.25 mm² structure , braided shielding , and PE insulation maintains an optimal signal-to-noise ratio along the entire length of the cable, even in demanding runs or environments with electromagnetic interference. The result is reliable communication between the DMX controller and spotlights, LED bars, dimmers, and moving heads, preventing flickering and erratic behavior.

• Easy installation : Standard male-female XLR connectors for lighting, compatible with 3-pin DMX controllers, dimmers and luminaires.
• Durability and comfortable handling thanks to the robust PVC case and its 6 mm diameter, designed for intensive use in rentals and tours.

Use cases

• Interconnection of DMX controllers with moving heads, LED PARs, LED bars, strobes and dimmers.
• Daisy chain link between DMX luminaires in stages, theaters, event halls, nightclubs and festivals.
• Fixed installations in cultural venues, congress centers and leisure spaces.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it suitable for audio? No. Although it uses XLR connectors, this cable is designed for DMX data (EIA-485) with 110 Ω. Microphone (audio) cables have different electrical characteristics and can cause DMX malfunctions.

3-pin or 5-pin? The DMX512-A standard specifies 5-pin, but the 3-pin format is widely used in lighting equipment. This cable is 3-pin; if your system uses 5-pin, use adapters or 5-pin cables where appropriate.

Do I need a terminator? In long runs or chains with multiple devices, it is recommended to terminate the line with a 120 Ω resistor at the last device to avoid reflections.

What is the maximum length per line? A typical DMX line can reach several hundred meters with proper cabling and termination; for extensive networks, use DMX splitters.

Installation recommendations

• Keep the DMX chain separate from power cables to minimize interference.
• Use a 120 Ω terminator on the last device in the chain.
• Avoid mixing audio and DMX cables on the same line.
