Cables To Go 40062 XLR Male to XLR Female Instrument Cable 50 ft

50-foot XLR interconnect for pro-audio

This 50-foot XLR male-to-female cable connects microphones, mixing consoles, recorders and amplifiers in professional audio setups. The 22 AWG twisted-pair construction carries balanced signals between equipment with three-pin XLR ports. Black PVC jacket and nickel-plated brass connectors suit stage, studio and installed-sound use. New condition, model 40062.

Shielding limits for unbalanced-to-balanced runs

The aluminum foil shield and 60% copper braid protect the twisted pair from electromagnetic interference when linking unbalanced sources to balanced XLR inputs. Shielding effectiveness depends on proper grounding at the receiving device and on keeping the run away from power cables. Cable capacitance and resistance increase with the 50-foot length, so very high-impedance sources may lose some high-frequency detail.

Flexible jacket and strain relief for repeated setup

The 7 mm ultra-flexible PVC jacket resists kinking during coiling and tight routing around racks or truss. Molded strain relief on each connector and a chuck-style relief inside the XLR housings protect solder joints when gear is moved between venues. Nickel plating on solid brass contacts withstands frequent reconnection without corrosion. At 2.0 lbs the cable is light enough for overhead runs yet substantial enough to stay put.
