EUROLITE DMX Cable XLR 3-pin 3m White – Shielded Control Cable for Stage Lighting

When a lighting technician runs DMX512 signals between a controller and moving heads on a truss, a reliable cable is non-negotiable. This 3-meter white DMX cable from EUROLITE delivers clean data transmission with XLR 3-pin connectors, braided shielding, and oxygen-free copper conductors. It’s built for the demands of stage lighting, effects, and architectural installations where signal integrity matters.

Key specifications

• Length: 3 m
• Connectors: XLR 3-pin male to XLR 3-pin female
• Impedance: 110 Ohm – matches DMX512 standard
• Shielding: Braided shield for noise rejection
• Conductor: Oxygen-free copper (OFC), 2x 0.22 mm² (AWG 24)
• Jacket: Flexible PVC, white colour
• Cable diameter: approx. 6.5 mm
• Balanced construction with PE dielectric
• Metal connector housings with strain relief

Why choose it

The 110-ohm characteristic impedance is critical for DMX512 – it prevents signal reflections that cause flickering or erratic fixture behaviour. The braided shield and OFC conductors ensure a robust, interference-resistant link even in electrically noisy environments. The white jacket blends discreetly into light-coloured trusses or walls, and the flexible PVC makes coiling and routing easy.

Ideal use cases

• Connecting DMX controllers to dimmer packs, moving heads, or LED fixtures
• Patching between DMX splitters and fixtures on stage or in studios
• Permanent installations in theatres, clubs, or architectural lighting
• Replacing worn or suspect cables in touring rigs

Good to know

This cable is not a microphone cable – using standard audio XLR for DMX can cause data errors. Always use dedicated DMX cable with 110-ohm impedance. For longer runs, consider a DMX terminator at the end of the line. The metal XLR shells provide durability, and the strain relief protects the solder joints from repeated plugging and flexing.
