The 10' Kramer Electronics XLR 3-Male to XLR 3-Female Quad Style Cable is designed for microphone or line level audio interconnections. The cable uses four cores of copper, wound in two parallel pairs, to reduce the amount of electromagnetically induced noise caused by environmental factors such as AC transformers and florescent light ballasts from interfering with the audio signal.

The quad-core design can reduce induction levels by up to 90% when compared to a regular two-pair balanced microphone cable. Additionally, the cable features no-shrink, back hand-soldered XLR connectors, XLPE insulation, and utilizes a large number of thin bare copper wire strands to improve cable flexibility.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Will this work with the Tram TR50?

A: Hello Stan, I show the TR50 as a XLR connection and therefore it would not. If there is a TR50 available with a 3.5mm TRS connector then yes, this will work for you.

Q: 2. will it work with takstar sgc-598?

A: That adapter will work for the Takstar SGC-598 microphone, to connect to an XLR input. Since that Takstar mic is battery powered, the less costly ROVXLR adapter would also work: https://bhpho.to/3AOKIE9

Q: 3. Is this compatible with balanced or unbalanced XLR?

A: The VXLR+ is designed to convert high voltage phantom power used with pro balanced XLR mic inputs into much lower bias voltage (plug-in power) that is needed by many unbalanced electret condenser mics like lavalier mics and shotgun style camera mics.

Q: 4. Can I use this on my sinhieser xwd wireless lav to connect to my c100 mark 2 with the top handle attacged

A: Hello Ben. The VXLR Plus is a 3.5mm TRS Female to XLR Male adapter and converts phantom power of P48 down to plug in power (2-5v). If that's what you need to do and you have the proper connections then, yes, it should work. If you don't need power then the Rode VXLR would work just as well.

Q: 5. Can I use this to connect the DJI Mic2 Transmitter to a Rodecaster Pro 1?

A: The RODE VXLR+ 3.5mm TRS Female to XLR Male Adapter with Phantom Power Converter can work to output from a DJI Mic 2 receiver, to the XLR input on a Rodecaster Pro, together with a 3.5mm output cable. Since the power conversion is not needed for this setup, I would recommend the less costly Rode VXLR 3.5mm TRS Female to XLR Male Adapter instead: https://bhpho.to/42sHsNK . Depending on the situation, especially if wireless is not needed, you may also want to consider other microphone options. Please reach out to us for help choosing one that meets your specific requirements.

Q: 6. My guess is that you can’t, but is it possible to only buy the phantom power converter?

A: The RODE VXLR+ 3.5mm TRS Female to XLR Male Adapter with Phantom Power Converter adapts an XLR input with phantom power to a 3.5mm input with plugin power. There is no consumer device that does this without any connectors, although some type of OEM circuit may be available from electronics suppliers if you are working on a custom build.

Q: 7. Is this adapter fully compatible with Sennheiser ME2 lapel mics?

A: Yes, it works with the ME2. The VXLR-Plus is the perfect alternative to going wireless. So I nstead of connecting the ME2 to the G3 wireless transmitter, simply connect your ME2 (or most other 3.5mm lapels) to the Rode VXLR-Plus and you have a hard-wired connection. Just make sure that the device you are connecting the VXLR-Plus to (i.e. your camera or recorder), has 48 volt phantom power enabled and you should be good to go.

Q: 8. If I plug a stereo mic to the VXLR+, does it mix both channels into one mono? Or this just uses one of both stereo channels?

A: When using the Rode VXLR+ 3.5mm TRS Female to XLR Male Adapter with Phantom Power Converter with a stereo microphone, the output will be summed to dual mono. Please note that most microphones with a 3.5mm TRS connector provide dual mono output signal and not true stereo output. An actual stereo microphone will have two mic elements instead of one.

Q: 9. I'd like to use the 9V battery powered Rode Videomic (VIDEOMIC-R) to connect with a Zoom PodTrak P4. Will a standard VXLR converter work with that, or do I need this VXLR+ for it? Thanks!

A: With 9V battery installed, the standard VXLR converter will work.

Q: 10. Can someone describe what is connected to each 1/8 in. connection (tip. ring, sleeve) in terms of signal, power, and ground? (This would help to answer a lot of other questions.)

A: The specific TRS input wiring schematic is not available for the Rode VXLR+ 3.5mm TRS Female to XLR Male Adapter with Phantom Power Converter, however we can confirm that the VXLR+ is compatible with microphones using the 3.5mm "Sennheiser" wiring configuration for compatibility. This adapter is not compatible with microphones wired for compatibility with Sony input connections.
