OQAN QABL JPS-10-XF - Balanced Audio Cable Jack TRS 1/4" to XLR Female (10 meters)
Maximize the integrity of your audio signal with the OQAN QABL JPS-10-XF , a high-fidelity cable designed to solve critical connection situations in both studio and live settings. With a generous length of 10 meters , this cable offers exceptional freedom of movement without sacrificing sound quality, allowing you to connect distant audio sources to your mixing console or interface without worrying about unwanted noise.
The balanced architecture of this model is its greatest strength. By using three conductors (Tip, Ring, Sleeve) in the jack connector and the corresponding three pins in the XLR connector, the cable effectively cancels electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI). This is crucial in long cable runs, ensuring that the signal reaches its destination as clean and powerful as it left the source. Its robust metal connectors guarantee a secure and durable connection, withstanding the wear and tear of daily use in demanding environments.
Manufactured to Oqan's rigorous quality standards, this cable uses oxygen-free copper (OFC) to ensure superior conductivity and a flat frequency response. Whether you need to connect a dynamic microphone to a balanced line input or interconnect rack equipment with multiple inputs and outputs, the QABL JPS-10-XF is the professional and affordable solution your audio setup needs.
Main features
-
Real Balanced Transmission: TRS to XLR design eliminates background noise and hum, ideal for environments with heavy electronic load.
-
Professional Length: Its 10 meters allow for flexible configurations in large stages or spacious recording rooms.
-
Durable Construction: Flexible yet tough PVC coating that protects internal conductors from stomping and excessive bending.
-
High Quality Connectors: 1/4" (6.35 mm) Jack and Female XLR with metal housings for longer lifespan and better shielding at connection points.
-
Optimal Conductivity: Use of high-purity copper to maintain clarity in the highs and depth in the lows.
Benefits for the user
Using the OQAN QABL JPS-10-XF provides immediate peace of mind. As a balanced cable, it protects your recordings and live performances from the dreaded electrical hum that can ruin a perfect take. Its extended length eliminates the need to splice shorter cables, which often degrades the signal. Furthermore, the cable's flexibility makes it easy to coil and store, preventing the annoying tangles and knots that damage the wiring over time. It's an investment in durability and sonic purity.
Use cases
-
Microphone Connection: Ideal for connecting microphones with XLR output to multitrack recorders, keyboard amplifiers, or mixer inputs that have a balanced TRS jack input.
-
Studio Equipment Interconnection: Perfect for connecting external preamps (XLR output) to compressors or equalizers (TRS jack input).
-
Rehearsal Rooms and Stages: Useful for sending signals from injection boxes or audio equipment located far from the main console.
-
Podcasting and Broadcast: An effective solution for audio interfaces that require adaptability between connection formats without losing quality.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Is this cable suitable for connecting a guitar to a microphone?
No, this cable is balanced (TRS) and has a female XLR connector. Guitars typically use unbalanced (TS) cables with jacks on both ends. This cable is intended for balanced microphone or line signals.
-
Can I use Phantom power (48V) with this cable?
The cable itself is physically capable of transmitting phantom power, but it depends entirely on whether your equipment's jack input supplies phantom power, which is very uncommon. Phantom power is generally only supplied through XLR-to-XLR inputs. Be sure to check your equipment's manual.
-
Is it a stereo cable?
Although the jack connector looks like a stereo connector (two rings), in this context it's used as a balanced mono cable. It carries a single mono audio signal, but duplicated to cancel noise.
Project description
Supply of a 10-meter length of balanced professional audio cable, model OQAN QABL JPS-10-XF or technical equivalent. The cable must have a 1/4" (6.35 mm) male TRS jack connector on one end and a 3-pin female XLR connector on the other. The construction must include oxygen-free copper (OFC) conductors for low capacitance, effective shielding against electromagnetic interference, and a flexible, durable black PVC outer jacket. The connectors must be metallic and robust, ensuring signal integrity in professional audio applications and fixed installations.
