The yellow Kopul 3000 Series XLR Male to Female Microphone Cable 15'is designed to be an extremely quiet and flexible cable that is ideal for the most demanding live sound and performance applications. The cable is engineered to be durable and provide protection against EMI, RFI, and static noise. While the cable's color-coding affords the ability to quickly differentiate between multiple connections onstage, it provides a pleasant aesthetic quality at the same time.

Premium Performance 3000 Series cables are made from 24-AWG OFC copper wire that's wrapped with PE insulation and a conductive PVC inner shield. A cotton-yarn inner layer helps reduce electrostatic and microphonic noise. The 95% dual-spiral shielding makes the cable resistant to EMI and RFI noise. The Neutrik XX silver connectors provide a high level of connectivity, and all the solder connections are shrink-wrapped for protection.

95% dual-spiral shielding offers protection from EMI and RFI noise

Twin conductive PVC inner shielding provides 100% coverage of the core conductor. It helps keep the cable's signal from radiating and affecting nearby cables and helps prevents external EMI from penetrating to the cable's core

24-AWG oxygen-free stranded copper inner core provides the best possible conductivity

Cotton yarn reduces electrostatic and microphonic noise

All solder points shrink-wrapped for protection

Neutrik XX silver connectors offer high conductivity

Caged type contact and improved ground contact

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. I have a Tascam DR40 and a AudioTechnica 3350 Lavallier mic. Is this going to work ?

A: This is the type of converter that is used for connecting mics with a 1/8 /3.5mm TRS plug into a device with a XLR plug. In other words, yes, it will work.

Q: 2. Will this work to get a Sennheiser lav ew 122 or ME 2-II wired?

A: No, the adapter you need is the Rode VXLR+ 3.5mm TRS Female to XLR Male Adapter with Phantom Power Converter (B&H # ROVXLRP). This adapter will convert the 3.5mm plug to XLR and also allow converts phantom power (typically 48V) from a mixer or recorder to plug-in power (approximately 3 to 5V) which the lav mic needs to operate. The Kopul adapter only converts the plug to XLR but will not convert phantom power to plug-in power.

Q: 3. Will this work with the microphone cable from the Nady QHM-100 Closed-Back Stereo Headphones with Boom Mic? I'm looking at using it for the BMD ATEM Talkback Converter.

A: Unfortunately the Nady QHM-100 will not operate when connected via an adapter to an XLR input. The mic requires power only able to be provided by a 3.5mm jack. You are able to connect a standard broadcast headset that features a dynamic mic which does not require power via the XLR jack. The Audio Technica BPHS-1 is currently the best we have to offer in terms of price and correct connections (XLR for mic, and 1/4 TRS headphone).

Q: 4. Will this work with Panasonic DMW-XLR1?

A: Yes if you want to connect a microphone with mini plug output.

Q: 5. How long would be the network cable?

A: No cable is included with the Kopul 4-Channel XLR Network Cable Extender Kit with Male and Female Extenders. As these extenders support transmission of analog audio, AES/EBU, and DMX signals, recommended cable length will vary based on what kind of signal you want to send.

Q: 6. Can you "daisy chain" these extenders by connecting two male or two female extenders via Cat 5?

A: Each Kopul 4-Channel XLR Network Cable Extender only has a single RJ45 port, so they cannot be daisy chained.

Q: 7. Will this work with my old Roland KC-150 keyboard amplifier and a new Roland GO-KEYS 61 key touch-sensitive portable keyboard?

A: The Kopul Stereo Mini to Dual 1/4" Y-Cable will work with any keyboard, or other device for that matter, which uses dual 1/4" TS outputs. The model of the keyboard is not important to the cable's function.

Q: 8. Fixing the XLR gender being wrong with adapters, will these extenders pass audio in both directions on the Ethernet cable?

A: XLR is not de-facto a directional medium, which is to say that it's really just a set of three pins with copper wire in between. Audio can only flow one way from an XLR connector to another, but it doesn't actually matter which direction that is. So, if for some reason you have audio passing from male jack 1 of the Kopul 4-Channel XLR Network Cable Extender Kit to female jack 1, that will work fine. You just can't have audio flowing both ways at the same time between two connectors.

Q: 9. Are these the same as interconnect cables for connecting home audio hi-fi components (e.g. CD player, DAC, amplifier)? Thanks.

A: XLR connectors are not typically offered on home AV products. XLR connections are most often used with professional audio components.

Q: 10. What is the weight of the cable, without packaging?

A: I'm sorry, but I don't have a listed weight for the Cable Techniques Coiled Jumper Cable Low-Profile (6 to 15"). This is normally packaged in a simple plastic bag, so the 0.155 lbs packed weight is very close to the weight of the cable alone.
