DMX Male 3-Pin to DMX Female 3-Pin High Performance Cable\u003c\/strong\u003e, a mid-length patch cable built for the real demands of live production. Five feet is the sweet spot for a lot of common DMX tasks: bridging a controller to a first fixture, linking moving heads in a cluster, or keeping connections organized at a stage plot without fighting a cable that is either too short to reach or too long to manage. The ProX XC-DMX05 is built around verified electrical specs that match the EIA-485 \/ DMX512 standard precisely, so you get clean data every time the lights need to respond on cue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size:1.12em;line-height:1.35;font-weight:700;margin:1.25em 0 .35em\"\u003eConstruction and Signal Path\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ProX XC-DMX05 uses a twisted quad data cable design with polyethylene insulation on each conductor. This geometry is purpose-built for DMX512 protocol, maintaining a nominal characteristic impedance of 110 ohms throughout the cable's length, exactly where the standard requires it. Duofoil shielding provides 100% coverage across the full cable run, and a tinned copper braid adds an additional 85% coverage layer on top. This two-layer approach keeps RF interference and signal bleed from causing erratic fixture behavior in setups with dense lighting or multiple universes running in close proximity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size:1.12em;line-height:1.35;font-weight:700;margin:1.25em 0 .35em\"\u003eConductors and Transfer Quality\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConductors are 22 AWG tinned copper, with gold and silver-plated contacts at both connectors for a low-resistance, corrosion-resistant connection. Nominal capacitance from conductor to conductor at 1 kHz measures 12.8 pF\/ft, with conductor-to-shield capacitance at 23 pF\/ft under the same conditions. Nominal propagation velocity is 66%, with a nominal delay of 1.6 nanoseconds per foot. Nominal conductor DC resistance is 24 ohms per 1000 ft at 20 degrees C, and the outer shield resistance is 3.4 ohms per 1000 ft at the same temperature. These numbers matter when your rig includes long runs, multiple data splitters, or tight timing requirements across a large fixture count.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3 style=\"font-size:1.12em;line-height:1.35;font-weight:700;margin:1.25em 0 .35em\"\u003eJacket and Durability\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA flexible PVC outer jacket protects the internal build while staying pliable across an operating temperature range of -30 degrees C to +75 degrees C.
