Procab XLR Plug to XLR Socket Cable 10 m — Balanced Audio Connection, Procab 1KPCL114

Procab 10 m XLR Male to XLR Female balanced audio cable provides a shielded, low-noise connection for professional audio setups. Designed for linking microphones, mixers, stage boxes and powered speakers, this 10-metre cable maintains signal integrity over longer runs. The flexible outer jacket and robust XLR connectors ensure reliable mechanical performance in live sound, studio and installation environments.

Advantages

The balanced wiring and shielding reduce hum and electromagnetic interference, delivering a clean audio path for low-level microphone signals and line-level devices. Durable metal XLR connectors resist wear from repeated plugging and unplugging, while strain relief and a flexible sheath protect the conductor assembly during handling and coiling. The 10 m length offers a practical compromise between reach and manageable cable bulk for stage and studio use.

Suitable for

• Connecting microphones to mixing consoles or preamps
• Patch runs between mixers, DI boxes and outboard gear
• Stage and live sound signal routing for PA systems
• Studio recording sessions requiring shielded, balanced lines

Key specifications

• Connector type: XLR male to XLR female, 3-pin balanced
• Cable length: 10 metres
• Shielding: braided or foil shield for EMI/RFI protection
• Conductor configuration: balanced pair with dedicated ground
• Outer jacket: flexible PVC or similar material for durability and handling

How to use

Connect the XLR male end to the output device (for example, a microphone or mixer output) and the XLR female end to the input device (for example, a mixer input, preamp or powered speaker). Ensure connectors are fully seated and latched where applicable. Avoid sharp bends or kinks in the cable and route it away from mains power cables when possible to minimize interference. When coiling the cable for storage, use loose coils to preserve the internal conductor geometry and avoid long-term deformation.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, use the balanced XLR cable for runs up to 10 metres in environments with moderate electromagnetic noise. Inspect connectors periodically for dirt or corrosion and replace the cable if the shielding or conductor integrity is compromised. For permanent installations, consider securing cable runs with clips or ties and avoid running parallel to high-voltage power lines.
