Green star-quad microphone cable with black XLR3 connectors, 5 ft length

Canare

Canare Star Quad Microphone Cable L-4E6S XLR3 5 ft Green

SKU CH-6WBA-1EV42

A 5 ft star-quad microphone cable with XLR3 connectors that rejects EMI, RFI and handling noise

  • Star Quad geometry rejects EMI and RFI noise
  • Cotton filler suppresses handling noise during use
  • Hand-soldered Neutrik XLR-3 connectors ensure reliable signal transfer
  • Super-flexible jacket stays pliable in sub-zero temperatures
  • 5 ft green length suits studio tie lines and patch cords

Professional Star Quad Microphone Cable

The Canare L-4E6S cable uses a four-conductor Star Quad geometry to cancel electromagnetic interference from lighting ballasts, dimmer packs and power transformers. Hand-soldered Neutrik XLR-3 connectors with gold-plated pins provide a secure, low-resistance link. The irradiated polyethylene insulation and cotton filler suppress handling noise, while the matte green jacket stays flexible in sub-zero temperatures.

Studio and Live Sound Connectivity

The Star Quad construction actively rejects EMI and RFI that standard twisted-pair cables pick up, delivering a cleaner signal path for critical recordings or live mixes. Neutrik’s black-chrome shells withstand repeated insertion cycles without loosening. Because the cable carries line-level signals equally well, it serves as a reliable tie line between mixers, processors and power amplifiers in rack wiring or snake systems.

Verify Connector Gender and Length Before Buying

Confirm that your microphone, mixer or interface requires a male-to-female XLR-3 connection, as this assembly is fixed and cannot be re-terminated without tools. The five-foot length suits desktop or near-rack patches but will not reach distant stage positions or overhead boom mounts. Buyers needing longer runs, right-angle plugs or a different colour code should select another variant.

Questions about this item

Will the cotton filler and braided shield need replacement if the cable is coiled daily?

The cotton filler and braided shield are built into the cable assembly; they are not user-serviceable parts, so the whole cord would be replaced if handling noise or shielding performance degrades.

What is the first limit reached when the cable runs beside AC transformers all day?

The Star Quad geometry cancels magnetically induced noise from transformers and ballasts, so electromagnetic interference rejection is the limiting factor, not conductor heating.

Does the irradiated polyethylene insulation stay flexible and cool during continuous stage use?

The irradiated polyethylene jacket remains super flexible in sub-zero temperatures and does not generate heat, as the cable carries only low-level microphone or line-level signals.
