The SATRXL-M25 is a 25-foot balanced XLR male to TRS patch cable designed for connecting professional audio equipment in studio and live sound environments. This blue-jacketed cable bridges the gap between gear with different connector types, making it essential for complex signal routing.

This balanced cable maintains signal integrity over its 25-foot length, connecting mixers to equalizers, crossovers, compressors, or amplifiers when your rack gear uses different connector standards. The XLR male connector locks securely into place, while the TRS connector provides balanced operation for professional applications.

Built with 22-gauge oxygen-free copper conductors and comprehensive shielding, this cable delivers clean signal transfer in electrically noisy environments. The heavy-duty flexible rubber jacket withstands repeated coiling and transport, while the bright blue color makes cable identification quick during setup and teardown.

Perfect for studio patch bays, live sound racks, and mobile DJ setups where you need to connect different types of professional audio equipment. Whether you're routing signals between a digital mixer and analog processors or connecting balanced outputs to powered monitors, this cable handles the interconnection seamlessly.

The cable features metal XLR and TRS connectors for durability and secure connections. No additional adapters needed – just plug and play between your XLR and TRS equipped gear.

Seismic Audio backs this patch cable with a one-year warranty and ships it ready to use out of the box. Professional-grade connectivity at a price that makes sense for working musicians and sound engineers.

Frequently Asked Questions

What equipment does this XLR to TRS cable connect?

This cable connects any device with an XLR male input to equipment with a 1/4" TRS output, or vice versa. Common applications include connecting mixing consoles to rack-mounted equalizers, compressors, or crossovers when they use different connector types. It's also useful for connecting balanced line outputs from audio interfaces to powered monitors with TRS inputs.

Is this cable balanced and will it work with professional audio gear?

Yes, this is a fully balanced cable that maintains professional signal integrity. Both XLR and TRS connections carry balanced signals, which provide superior noise rejection compared to unbalanced connections. The 22-gauge oxygen-free copper conductors and comprehensive shielding ensure clean signal transfer in professional studio and live sound environments.

How long can I run balanced audio signals before experiencing signal loss?

At 25 feet, this cable length is well within professional standards for balanced line-level signals. Balanced connections can typically run 100+ feet without noticeable signal degradation, so this 25-foot length provides plenty of reach for most studio and live sound applications while maintaining full signal integrity.

Can I use this cable to connect my mixer directly to powered speakers?

Yes, if your mixer has XLR outputs and your powered speakers have TRS inputs, this cable will work perfectly. Many digital mixers use XLR outputs for their main mix, while some powered monitors and PA speakers accept TRS inputs. This cable provides the proper balanced connection between the two connector types.

What's the difference between this and a standard XLR to 1/4" TS cable?

This cable uses a TRS (tip-ring-sleeve) connector, which carries balanced signals, while a TS (tip-sleeve) connector only carries unbalanced signals. The balanced TRS connection provides better noise rejection and is the professional standard for line-level audio connections. If your equipment has balanced inputs/outputs, always use TRS connections when possible.
