Cordial ELCCPH15-DMX1-5-PWR1 - 1.5m Hybrid DMX 5-Pin Cable and PowerCON Power
The Cordial ELCCPH15-DMX1-5-PWR1 is a professional, high-efficiency cabling solution designed to simplify complex lighting and stage setups. This hybrid cable combines a 5-pin DMX signal line and a power cable into a single, robust sheath, eliminating the need for two separate cables. At 1.5 meters long, it's perfect for short connections, such as daisy-chaining lighting equipment on trusses or bars, keeping your setup clean and organized. Manufactured with premium components, including Neutrik connectors and a heavy-duty H07RN-F rubber cable, this cable is built to withstand the demands of professional use on tours, live events, and permanent installations.

Benefits for the Professional
Using the Cordial ELCCPH15-DMX1-5-PWR1 cable results in greater efficiency and a more professional look. By halving the number of cables needed to connect a device, it minimizes the risk of tangles and achieves a much cleaner stage appearance. Its durable construction ensures a long lifespan even under heavy use, protecting your equipment investment. The reliability of the Neutrik connectors prevents accidental disconnections, a critical factor during any live performance.
Use Cases
This combination cable is the ideal choice for a wide variety of applications in the entertainment and events industry. It is especially useful for connecting modern lighting equipment such as moving heads, LED PAR lights, strobes, and other devices that require both a DMX control signal and power. Its 1.5-meter length makes it perfect for interconnecting nearby fixtures within the same structure or for the initial connection from a power and signal distributor.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this cable suitable for outdoor use?
Yes, the H07RN-F rubber coating is designed to be robust and durable, making it suitable for outdoor events. It offers good protection against moisture and mechanical wear.
What is the difference between 3-pin and 5-pin DMX connectors?
While 3-pin DMX uses the pins for ground, signal-, and signal+, the 5-pin DMX512 standard reserves the two additional pins for a second data line or for Remote Device Management (RDM) communication. Although many devices only use 3 pins, using a 5-pin cable ensures compatibility with more advanced devices.
Can I connect and disconnect the PowerCON connector under load?
No, standard PowerCON connectors (blue and gray) are not designed to be connected or disconnected under electrical load. Ensure the equipment is powered off before handling the power connection for safety.
Project description
This 1.5-meter professional hybrid cable combines a power line and a DMX signal line in a single PVC jacket. The power section consists of three 1.50 mm² conductors and uses Neutrik PowerCON connectors (NAC3FXXA-WS and NAC3FXXB-WS), rated up to 250 V AC / 16 A. The signal section is a 110-ohm DMX cable with 0.22 mm² conductors and 5-pin XLR connectors (male/female). The main cable is a high-strength, flexible H07RN-F model. The ends are split every 30 cm for easy connection to equipment.
