PROEL ESO210LU05 - Professional Balanced Microphone Cable with Neutrik Connectors (XLR Female to XLR Male) - 0.5 Meters
The Proel ESO210LU05 represents the perfect fusion of Italian engineering and world-class components. Designed for audio professionals who leave nothing to chance, this 0.5-meter balanced microphone cable is part of Proel's acclaimed professional assembly series. Its robust construction and short length make it the ultimate tool for maintaining signal integrity over short distances, eliminating the excess cabling that often creates clutter and noise in complex setups.
What truly sets this model apart is the inclusion of genuine Neutrik XX series connectors, the industry gold standard for reliability and durability. Combined with the high-quality HPC210 flexible cable, this product guarantees transparent, interference-free audio transmission with a frequency response faithful to the original source. It's the ideal solution for those seeking technical precision and clean audio setups.
Main features
-
Original Neutrik Connectors: Equipped with the NC3FXX (Female) and NC3MXX (Male) models, recognized worldwide for their secure locking mechanism, robust metal housing and silver contacts that ensure optimal conductivity.
-
OFC Copper Conductor: Made with high purity (99.99%) Oxygen Free Copper (OFC), which minimizes oxidation and ensures crystal-clear signal transfer over time.
-
Superior Shielding: It features a high-density copper spiral screen that provides over 90% coverage, protecting the signal against electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI).
-
Extreme Flexibility: Thanks to its super flexible 6.5mm PVC outer jacket, the cable is easy to handle, coil and route even in tight spaces inside racks or pedalboards.
-
Precision Length: Its 50 centimeters are exact for direct interconnections, avoiding unnecessary cable loops that act as noise antennas.
Benefits for the user
Investing in the Proel ESO210LU05 cable brings immediate peace of mind to your workflow. By using Neutrik connectors, you eliminate the risk of accidental disconnections or mechanical failures common with generic connectors. The high-quality OFC copper ensures that the tone of your instruments or the clarity of your voice remains uncolored and undegraded.
Furthermore, its design is built for long-term durability . The PVC jacket is not only soft to the touch but also resistant to abrasion and wear from intensive use in studios and on stages. For the systems engineer, this cable means a cleaner rack, better airflow management between equipment, and a dramatic reduction in cable clutter behind the console.
Ideal use cases
Due to its specific length of 0.5 meters, this cable is irreplaceable in scenarios where space management is critical:
-
Rack Interconnection (Rackpatching): Ideal for connecting preamplifiers to compressors, equalizers or audio interfaces mounted in the same rack cabinet.
-
Patchbays: Perfect for making short jumps in professional patch panels.
-
Wireless Systems: Clean connection from the wireless receiver to the mixing console when they are located together.
-
Pedalboards and Processors: Linking effects or voice processors that require balanced XLR connections over very short distances.
-
Active Speaker Output: To bridge the signal (Daisy Chain) between two monitors or subwoofers that are close to each other.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are the connectors actually Neutrik or a compatible brand?
The Proel ESO210LU05 uses genuine Neutrik XX series connectors (NC3FXX and NC3MXX), not copies or budget-friendly subsidiary brands. It's the brand's top-of-the-line connector.
Is this cable suitable for passive speakers?
No. This is a signal cable (microphone/line) designed for low currents. To connect power amplifiers to passive speakers, you need a load cable with a larger gauge.
Is it suitable for DMX lighting signals?
Although the connector physically fits and can work over very short distances (such as 0.5m), the impedance of the microphone cable (approximately 110 ohms is ideal for DMX; audio cables are usually lower) is not suitable for digital lighting. Using dedicated DMX cables is recommended to ensure the stability of the lights, although it is exceptional for audio.
Is the cable balanced?
Yes, it is a fully balanced cable with two signal conductors plus the ground mesh, which allows for the cancellation of external noise.
