1FT RDNET XLR-M to RJ45 Cat5 / Cat6
1FT RDNET XLR-M to RJ45 Cat5 / Cat6
SKU: XC-RDC45M01
Overview
Introducing the ProX XC-RDC45M01 1FT RDNET XLR-M to RJ45 Cat5/Cat6 Cable, a purpose built signal link for touring audio systems, permanent installations, and DMX controlled show environments where a clean, reliable digital connection is non negotiable. This cable bridges an XLR-M connector to an RJ45 Cat5/Cat6 termination, giving techs a dependable way to run RDNET data between amplifiers, digital snakes, stage boxes, and network based audio gear without hunting for adapters mid load in.
Connector Configuration
the RJ45 end carries an 8 pin layout with two conductors reserved for digital ground and dedicated RS485 A and B data lines, while the XLR-M end mirrors that same digital ground and RS485 A/B pairing across 3 pins. That shared pin logic is what makes this cable a true RDNET link rather than a generic network patch, so data integrity stays intact across the whole run.
Cable Construction
built as a Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) Category 6 cable, it carries forward the noise rejection and crosstalk control that Cat6 is known for, which matters most on a crowded stage where power cable, lighting runs, and RF are all competing for the same air space.
Performance Headroom
Cat6 construction supports signal performance up to 250 MHz, more than double the 100 MHz ceiling of Cat5 and Cat5e, so this cable has real headroom for demanding digital audio and data applications rather than running at its limit.
Application
this 1 foot length is suited for RDNET connections, digital snakes, stage box linking, and general Audio/Video and DMX data runs, and its backward compatibility with Cat5/5e and Cat3 standards means it will still work in a mixed inventory without forcing an all or nothing system upgrade.
