What it is
A balanced microphone cable with a 3-pin XLR female plug on one end and a 3-pin XLR male plug on the other. Two OFC conductors are twisted together under a braided shield, so interference picked up along the run reaches both conductors equally and is rejected at the balanced input. It connects dynamic and condenser microphones to mixers, audio interfaces and stage boxes, and it also works for balanced line-level connections between XLR equipment.
Four standard lengths, six jacket colors and two plug finishes cover most studio, stage and podcast setups from one product.
Who it's for
- Podcast, streaming and creator brands selling their own microphone cable or mic bundles.
- Music retailers and distributors stocking a private-label XLR line.

FAQ
Can I use this cable with condenser microphones that need phantom power?
Yes. All three pins are wired straight through with no inline components, so the cable carries +48 V phantom power from your mixer or interface to the microphone.
Which end connects to the microphone?
The female XLR end connects to the microphone; it has a latch that locks onto the mic. The male end plugs into the mixer, audio interface or stage box input.
Can I order the cable with a thicker conductor?
Yes. 2 × 24 AWG is the standard build for this design. A 2 × 22 AWG version is available as a customization; it is slightly thicker and stiffer, so check the cable entry of any plugs you add yourself.
What lengths and jacket colors are available?
Stock lengths are 1 m (3.3 ft), 3 m (9.8 ft), 6 m (19.7 ft), and 10 m (32.8 ft), in six stock jacket colors. Lengths from 0.5 m to 50 m and colors beyond the stock six are available as a customization, and you can combine lengths and colors in one order.
Can the cable carry our logo and retail packaging?
Yes. A laser-engraved logo can go on the zinc-alloy plug housings, in a nickel, black chrome, or gold finish. Each cable ships in a polybag with a hook-and-loop tie as standard, and branded ties, header cards, retail boxes, and barcode labels are available.
