XLR 5-pin DMX cable PSSO 20 m with Neutrik connectors

PSSO XLR 5-pin DMX cable, 20 m with Neutrik connectors, is designed for reliable transmission of DMX512 control signals in professional lighting and stage environments. The cable delivers the standard 5-pin wiring required by many fixtures and controllers, while the rugged Neutrik connectors provide secure mechanical contact and consistent electrical performance for live events, touring, theatres and fixed installations.

Advantages

The cable combines a 20 m length convenient for medium to large setups with five-conductor wiring optimized for DMX systems. Neutrik connectors ensure low contact resistance, strain relief and a locking mechanism to reduce accidental disconnection. The cable jacket and conductor construction are engineered to resist handling wear and maintain consistent signal integrity over extended use.

Suitable for

• Linking DMX controllers to dimmers or moving lights in live events
• Permanent or temporary stage and theatre lighting installations
• Touring rigs and concert setups requiring reliable multicore DMX runs
• Architectural lighting systems and venue installations

Key specifications

• Cable length: 20 m
• Connector type: metal Neutrik XLR 5-pin plugs at both ends
• Wiring: 5-conductor DMX-compatible wiring
• Signal standard: DMX512-compliant transmission characteristics
• Mechanical features: locking connector mechanism and strain relief
• Construction: flexible jacket suitable for stage use and repeated handling

How to use

Connect one Neutrik XLR 5-pin plug to the DMX output of the controller and the other end to the DMX input of the receiving device, ensuring the locking latch engages. For multi-device chains, connect devices in a daisy-chain configuration and terminate the last fixture with a DMX terminator if required. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends, high-tension points and exposure to sources of EMI where possible.

Usage recommendations

Inspect connectors and cable jacket before each use and replace or repair any damaged sections. For long runs, avoid coiling the cable tightly; use gentle loops to prevent kinking. When rigging in public or high-traffic areas, secure the cable with appropriate clamps or tape to reduce trip hazards and mechanical strain.
