The Professional Series XLR cable is made using two stranded, 23 AWG, OFC conductors in a tight-pitch twisted pair configuration. The use of XLPE insulation helps reduce the capacitance while the braided tinned copper shield provides excellent EMI and noise rejection. Between the conductors and shield is a conductive yarn designed to increase the flexibility of the cable. To top it all off, the sturdy PVC jacket is there to take the abuse of any environment. Applications: Pre-wiring of modular truss or sound systems for quick set up Custom shop cable DIY cables for personal use Custom lengths for permanent installations NOTE: Not rated for in-wall use
