Monoprice 5-Pin Female DMX Connector

This connector provides a field-termination point for custom DMX lighting cables. It uses a 5-pin female layout with solder cup posts for the conductors and a solder loop for the shield. The housing is black anodised aluminium with a plastic cap and rubber strain relief boot. A lock release button secures the mating connection.

Suited for installers building custom-length DMX

Technicians assembling their own 4-conductor DMX cables will find the solder cups straightforward. The rugged aluminium shell withstands stage and touring environments. Users needing a male connector, a different pin count, or a pre-assembled cable should select another product.

5-pin female gender with solder termination

The connector presents five solder cup posts for signal conductors and a dedicated solder loop for the shield. This pin-out matches standard 4-conductor DMX bulk cable requirements. The female gender mates with 5-pin male DMX ports on fixtures and controllers.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the Monoprice 601654 connector generate when used continuously in a DMX lighting chain?

The connector is a passive metal shell with solder cups and a shield post; it has no electronics, so it produces no measurable heat during normal operation.

What cable and tools do I need to assemble a working lead with this 5-pin female DMX connector?

You need 4-conductor DMX bulk cable, a soldering iron, solder, and basic hand tools to terminate the five solder cups and the shield post.

Will this 5-pin female connector mate with older 3-pin DMX gear I already own?

No — it is a 5-pin female XLR-type connector, so it only mates with 5-pin male DMX devices; a 3-pin to 5-pin adapter cable is required for legacy 3-pin equipment.
