PD-Connex CX02-15 - 15m Audio and Power Combo Cable (Schuko/XLR)
The PD-Connex CX02-15 is a professional and efficient solution designed to simplify the cabling of powered audio equipment. This combo cable integrates both power and balanced audio signal into a single 15-meter cable. Its smart design eliminates the need for two separate cables, significantly reducing clutter on stage, in the studio, or in any installation. It's the perfect choice for connecting powered speakers, stage monitors, and mixing consoles, ensuring a faster, cleaner, and safer setup.
At one end, the cable is equipped with a male Schuko plug for mains power and a 3-pin female XLR connector for audio signal input. At the other end, it has a female IEC connector (the standard on most powered speakers) and a 3-pin male XLR connector. This configuration is ideal for carrying signal and power from a mixing console or power outlet to a powered speaker with a single cable run.
