The SATRXL-F10 Red delivers the balanced connection you need when interfacing between XLR and 1/4" TRS equipment in your live sound or studio setup. This 10-foot patch cable handles the critical signal path between mixers, equalizers, crossovers, compressors, and amplifiers.

Built with 22-gauge oxygen-free copper conductors, this cable maintains signal integrity across the full audio spectrum. The metal XLR female connector pairs with a metal 1/4" TRS male connector featuring high-grade fiberglass insulators for reliable performance show after show.

The heavy-duty flexible rubber jacket protects the shielded internal wiring from stage abuse while the balanced design eliminates noise and interference. At 10 feet, you get enough length for most rack connections and mixer-to-outboard gear runs without excess cable cluttering your setup.

Essential for connecting mixing consoles to rack-mounted processors, power amplifiers with XLR inputs to mixers with 1/4" outputs, or studio monitors to audio interfaces. Perfect for live sound engineers, studio engineers, and venue techs who need reliable balanced connections between different connector standards.

This cable terminates with professional-grade metal connectors on both ends and includes full shielding throughout its 10-foot length. Backed by Seismic Audio's one-year warranty with fast shipping nationwide.

Frequently Asked Questions

What equipment does this XLR female to TRS cable connect?

This cable connects gear with XLR outputs to equipment with 1/4" TRS inputs, or vice versa. Common uses include connecting mixing console outputs to power amplifiers, rack-mounted equalizers, compressors, or crossovers. It's also used to connect studio monitors with XLR inputs to audio interfaces with 1/4" outputs.

Is this cable balanced and will it reduce noise?

Yes, this is a fully balanced cable with proper shielding throughout. The balanced design carries audio on two conductors with opposite polarity, which cancels out electromagnetic interference and noise pickup. This makes it ideal for longer cable runs and noisy electrical environments like live venues.

How long should my XLR to TRS cables be for rack connections?

For most rack-to-rack connections, 10 feet provides enough length without excess cable management issues. This length works well for mixer-to-outboard gear connections, amplifier inputs from crossovers, and most studio monitor placement. Shorter cables reduce potential noise, while longer runs may require different lengths.

Can I use this cable to connect microphones to mixers?

No, this cable has an XLR female connector, which means it's designed to receive signal from XLR male outputs, not microphone inputs. Microphones typically use XLR male connectors and require cables with XLR female on the mixer end. This cable is specifically for line-level connections between professional audio equipment.

What's the difference between TRS and TS connections?

TRS (Tip-Ring-Sleeve) connectors have three contact points and carry balanced signals, while TS (Tip-Sleeve) have only two and carry unbalanced signals. This TRS cable maintains balanced operation throughout the signal path. Using TRS connections reduces noise and interference compared to unbalanced TS connections, especially important in professional applications.
