The SAXFRM-2x5 dual XLR male to dual RCA male patch cable handles stereo signal routing between professional audio gear and consumer equipment. This 5-foot unbalanced cable connects mixing console line outputs to recording interfaces, or bridges the gap between pro audio sources and home stereo amplifiers.

The cable features two XLR male connectors on one end and two RCA male connectors on the other, enabling you to send stereo signals from balanced professional outputs to unbalanced consumer inputs. The 5-foot length provides flexibility for desktop setups and small rack configurations without excess cable clutter.

Built with reliable connectors and proper shielding, this patch cable maintains signal integrity across the connection. The unbalanced design matches the requirements of RCA inputs, preventing ground loops and impedance mismatches that can cause noise in mixed-signal-level systems.

Use this cable to connect your mixing board's stereo outputs to a recording interface with RCA inputs, or route signals from professional gear to powered monitors with RCA connections. It works well in home studios, podcast setups, and small venue installations where you need to interface between professional and consumer audio equipment.

The cable delivers clean signal transfer for studio monitoring, recording applications, and system integration projects. Each purchase includes one dual XLR to dual RCA patch cable backed by a one-year warranty, giving you reliable connectivity for professional and semi-professional audio applications.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

What equipment does this cable connect?

This cable connects professional audio gear with XLR outputs (like mixing consoles, audio interfaces, or preamps) to consumer equipment with RCA inputs (like powered monitors, recording devices, or home stereo amplifiers). It's designed for stereo applications where you need to bridge between balanced professional outputs and unbalanced consumer inputs.

Is this cable balanced or unbalanced?

This is an unbalanced cable. While XLR connectors can carry balanced signals, the RCA connectors are inherently unbalanced, so the entire signal path becomes unbalanced. This design prevents impedance mismatches and ground loops that could occur when connecting balanced outputs directly to unbalanced inputs.

What's the difference between this and a standard XLR cable?

Standard XLR cables are typically balanced and connect XLR to XLR for professional audio applications. This cable specifically converts from professional XLR connections to consumer RCA connections, handling the transition between different connector types and signal formats in one cable rather than requiring separate adapters.

Can I use this for microphone connections?

No, this cable is designed for line-level signals, not microphone-level signals. Microphones output much lower signal levels that require preamplifcation before connecting to line inputs. Use this cable to connect line outputs from mixing consoles, audio interfaces, or other line-level sources to RCA inputs on recording gear or monitors.

How long should my patch cable be for desktop studio use?

The 5-foot length works well for desktop and small rack setups, providing enough reach between nearby equipment without excess cable length that can create clutter or signal degradation. For larger installations or equipment separated by greater distances, consider longer patch cables, but keep runs as short as practical for optimal signal integrity.
