Cordial ELCCPH5-DMX1-5-PWR1 - 5-pin DMX Hybrid Cable and 5m PowerCON Power Cable
The Cordial ELCCPH5-DMX1-5-PWR1 is a professional, high-efficiency cabling solution designed specifically for the demands of the stage and event environment. This innovative hybrid cable combines a power line and a DMX signal line into a single robust conduit, dramatically simplifying the setup and teardown of lighting and effects equipment. At 5 meters long, it offers a perfect balance of reach and manageability, ideal for connecting moving heads, LED spotlights, and other devices that require both power and signal control, enabling clean and organized daisy-chaining.
Manufactured with the highest quality components, this cable uses genuine Neutrik connectors, a standard in the audiovisual industry for their reliability and durability. One end features a 5-pin male XLR connector and a PowerCON power input connector (blue), while the other end has a 5-pin female XLR connector and a PowerCON power output connector (gray). The power cable, with a conductor cross-section of 3 x 1.5 mm², is designed to handle loads up to 250 V AC / 16 A. The DMX line is designed for flawless transmission of AES/EBU and 110-ohm DMX digital signals, ensuring interference-free communication even over long distances. Its robust PVC outer jacket and overall construction make it suitable for intensive use on tours and at outdoor events.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are 5-pin XLR connectors compatible with 3-pin DMX systems?
Yes, although this cable has 5-pin connectors, internally it uses a 3-pin assignment, which is the most common standard for DMX512. This makes it compatible with the vast majority of lighting equipment that uses 3- or 5-pin connectors.
What advantage do Neutrik PowerCON connectors offer?
PowerCON connectors offer a robust locking system that prevents accidental disconnections due to pulling or vibration, crucial in live event environments. They are also designed for a safe and reliable electrical connection.
Can I use this cable outdoors?
Yes, the internal power cable (type H07RN-F) is designed to be robust and flexible, making it suitable for use at outdoor events. The overall PVC coating also provides good protection.
What does "daisy chain" or chain connection mean?
This means you can connect the output of one lighting fixture directly to the input of the next, for both the DMX signal and power. This cable is specifically designed to facilitate this type of connection, simplifying the wiring for multiple light fixtures.
