The SAXLX-10 White delivers professional balanced audio connectivity for musicians, DJs, schools, churches, podcasters, and broadcasters who need clean signal routing in professional audio systems. This 10-foot XLR patch cable handles the critical connections between mixers, amplifiers, crossovers, and other balanced audio gear.

Built with 22-gauge oxygen-free copper conductors and comprehensive shielding, this cable maintains signal integrity across your entire audio chain. The heavy-duty flexible rubber jacket withstands the demands of regular transport and setup while the precision-manufactured metal XLR connectors ensure secure, noise-free connections every time.

The 10-foot length provides the reach needed for most rack-to-rack connections and mixer-to-amplifier runs without excess cable creating clutter in your setup. White jacketing makes cable management easier in installations where visual organization matters, from church sound booths to permanent installations.

Perfect for connecting mixing consoles to power amplifiers, routing signals through graphic EQs and crossovers, or linking modular rack gear in your audio system. The balanced XLR connection works equally well for microphone runs in recording and broadcast applications.

Terminates with male XLR on one end and female XLR on the other for standard audio chain connectivity. The female connector attaches to your source output and the male connector attaches to your destination input. Ships ready to use with no additional adapters needed. Backed by Seismic Audio's one-year warranty and ships fast to keep your projects moving forward.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between XLR patch cables and microphone cables?

XLR patch cables and microphone cables use identical connectors and wiring, making them completely interchangeable. The term "patch cable" typically refers to shorter runs used for connecting rack gear, while "microphone cables" are often longer runs from stage to mixer. This SAXLX-10 works perfectly for either application.

Can I use this cable to connect my mixer to my power amplifier?

Yes, this XLR patch cable is ideal for mixer-to-amplifier connections when both devices have XLR inputs and outputs. The balanced connection helps maintain clean signal transfer and reduces noise pickup over the 10-foot run. Just ensure your mixer has XLR main outputs and your amplifier has XLR inputs.

Can this cable work for DMX lighting control?

While this cable will physically connect to DMX fixtures, it's not optimal for DMX applications. Audio XLR cables like this one have 75-ohm impedance, while DMX512 protocol requires 120-ohm impedance for proper signal termination. This impedance mismatch can cause signal reflections, data errors, and unreliable lighting control, especially over longer cable runs. For critical DMX applications, use proper 120-ohm DMX cable. However, for short runs in smaller setups where dedicated DMX cable isn't available, this may work as a temporary solution.

Is 10 feet long enough for most rack connections?

Ten feet handles most rack-to-rack connections and mixer-to-amplifier runs in typical setups. It provides enough length to route cleanly between equipment without excess cable creating clutter. For longer runs across stages or rooms, consider the 25-foot or 50-foot versions of this same cable.

What comes in the box with this cable?

You receive one complete 10-foot XLR patch cable with male XLR on one end and female XLR on the other. The cable arrives ready to use with no additional connectors or adapters needed. The female connector attaches to your source output and the male connector attaches to your destination input.
