Audio, Microphone and DMX Cables

Audio, microphone and DMX cables are fine cross-section, mostly shielded low-current cables that carry a low-level audio signal or the DMX512 data of stage lighting. They are used between a microphone and a mixer or preamplifier, in the audio lines of studio, stage and public address systems, and, for the DMX types, in the data line between the lighting console and the luminaires. The product in this category is Reçber Kablo's BMX MC24 stereo microphone cable with a 2x0.22 mm² cross-section, sold by the meter. Choose the cable according to the signal type (analog audio or DMX data), the number of cores and cross-section, the shield construction and the line length. A microphone cable is not a substitute for a DMX cable on DMX512 lines that require a data cable with a rated characteristic impedance of 120 ohm. For the power line running from an amplifier output to a loudspeaker, a loudspeaker cord cable is used instead.

How to choose Audio, Microphone and DMX Cables

Audio, microphone and DMX cables are fine cross-section, mostly shielded low-current cables that carry a low-level audio signal or the DMX512 data of stage lighting. They are used between a microphone and a mixer or preamplifier, in the audio lines of studio, stage and public address systems, and, for the DMX types, in the data line between the lighting console and the luminaires.

  • Clarify the circuit duty first: power distribution, control, fire safety, Ethernet or analog signal.
  • Compare conductor cross-section, core count, insulation and shielding against the installation route.
  • Switch to the proper cable family early when flex duty, oil resistance, halogen-free jacket or fire integrity is required.
