Product Information

Full details

The kenable 006100 adapter cable is an essential tool for sound engineers and lighting technicians who need to bridge the gap between 3-pin XLR audio equipment and 5-pin DMX lighting systems. This 25cm cable provides a reliable, straight-wired connection perfect for phase reversal or DMX signal adaptation, though its short length is designed strictly for close-proximity patching rather than long-distance runs.

FAQs

Can I use this for long-distance DMX signal transmission?

No, this cable is only 0.25m long and is intended as an adapter lead rather than a primary signal transmission line.

Is this cable compatible with all 3-pin XLR microphones?

While it fits 3-pin XLR connectors, remember this is designed for phase reversal and DMX lighting applications, not necessarily for phantom-powered microphones.

Does this cable support 3-pin DMX?

Yes, it acts as a bridge between 3-pin XLR and 5-pin DMX standards.

Are the connectors shielded?

The connectors are made of metal to provide durable protection and consistent signal contact.

Is the cable RoHS compliant?

Yes, this product meets RoHS compliance standards for electronic materials.

Troubleshooting

No signal detected by lighting fixture

Verify that your DMX controller output is configured for the correct pin mapping and ensure the connection is fully seated.

Intermittent signal connection

Check the connector pins for any debris or oxidation and ensure the cable is not under tension or bending at an extreme angle.

Pros and Cons

  • High-quality metal connector housing
  • Effective strain relief for cable longevity
  • Compact 25cm length is ideal for adapter patches
  • Standardized pin configuration for DMX systems

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To use this cable, simply plug the 3-pin Female XLR end into your audio source or existing 3-pin cable, and the 5-pin Male DMX plug into your lighting receiver or console port. The cable is RoHS compliant, ensuring high manufacturing standards. To maintain the cable, store it in a coiled position without sharp bends to preserve the integrity of the internal wiring. Avoid pulling on the cable cord to disconnect; always grip the metal connector body to ensure a long operational lifespan.
