Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this cable shielded against interference?

Yes, the 2XLR-BK115 is designed with high-quality internal shielding to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI) and radio frequency interference (RFI) for clean sound.

Does this cable provide phantom power?

Yes, because it is a standard 3-pin XLR cable, it is fully capable of carrying +48V phantom power to condenser microphones.

Can I daisy-chain this with another XLR cable?

While you can daisy-chain XLR cables, it is generally better to use a single long cable like this 15m version to maintain signal strength and reduce potential connection points.

Are the connectors locking?

Yes, the standard 3-pin XLR design includes a built-in latching mechanism that locks the cable securely into your equipment.

What is the weight of this 15-meter cable?

While the exact weight varies slightly due to shielding thickness, 15-meter XLR cables are substantial and require proper coiling to manage the weight.

Is this suitable for outdoor use?

It is designed for professional audio, which can include outdoor events, but it should be protected from extreme moisture and direct exposure to the elements.

Troubleshooting

No audio signal detected

Ensure both ends are firmly clicked into their respective ports and check that your audio interface or mixer has phantom power enabled if required by your microphone.

Intermittent crackling sound

Check for debris on the gold-plated pins. If the problem persists, inspect the cable along its 15-meter length for any crushing or physical damage caused by heavy equipment being placed on it.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent signal integrity due to gold-plated pins
  • Extra long 15-meter length for large stage or room setups
  • Standardized 3-pin XLR connection fits most audio gear
  • Durable housing designed for professional environments

Cons

  • Long cable length requires disciplined storage to prevent knots
  • Heavy-duty construction adds more weight than shorter cables
  • Requires proper cable coiling techniques to maintain longevity

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Connecting your equipment is straightforward: simply insert the male XLR end into your microphone or source device until you hear a click, and connect the female end to your preamp, interface, or mixer. This cable is fully compliant with RoHS standards and CE certification, ensuring safety and environmental responsibility. To care for your cable, avoid sharp bends near the connector housings. Always coil the cable using the 'over-under' method to avoid internal wire fatigue. Keep the gold-plated pins clean by avoiding contact with dust or liquids; if cleaning is necessary, use a dry, lint-free cloth.
