How to choose the right speaker wire/cable? The purpose of Speaker cable is the wire used for the electrical connections between amplifier sources and loundspeakers system.The transfer is accomplished through the low-voltage electrical current conducted through the wires.It has three key electrical properties: resistance, capacitance and inductance. Resistance is by far the most important [...]
What is the DMX512 lighting control cable (AES/EBU Digital audio Cable)? DMX cable signal is based on RS485 signal, a kind of industry-standard protocol after adjusting the transmit Baud rate. Usually there are one pair DMX512 lighting control cable and two pair DMX512 lighting control cable. Cable types that are appropriate for DMX512 usage [...]
What is the S-video and PS/2 port? S-video (short for Super-video) is an older type of video signal that’s transmitted in varying electrical signals over wires to represent the original video. Newer video cables like HDMI transmit digital video signals in the form of numbers representing the original video signal. The benefit of [...]
A DIN connector is an electrical connector that was originally standardized in the early 1970s by the Deutsches Institut für Normung (DIN), the German national standards organization. A DIN connector encompasses several types of cables that plug into an interface to connect devices. It has an architecture that is composed of multiple pins that [...]
DMX Termination DMX Termination with 110 Ohms Resistor "Open ends" of DMX lines must be terminated. The 3-pin terminating plugs contain a 110Ω, 1/2W, resistor across pins 2 & 3. and the 5-pin terminating plugs contain two 110Ω, 1/2W, one resistor across pins 2 & 3, another resistor across pin 4 & 5. The [...]
XLR connectors are used in audio (mic level & line level) and DMX lighting control (DMX) applications. Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â Â 3-Pin XLR and 7-Pin XLR Audio Pinout The following is the AES industry standard for balanced audio XLR wiring, commonly known as "pin-2 [...]
A Line level is in the region of 0 dBV (1.0 volt), Line level signals have a much higher voltage output than mic or instrument level, usually somewhere around 750 millivolts.It is about 1,000 times as strong as a mic-level signal, so the two do not ordinarily use the same input. This signal travels [...]
Some mixers and active speaker have switches on the rear panel for setting each input jack or output jack for mic level (XLR) or line level (1/4"). These terms refer to the signal level or intensity. Microphone level is in the region of -60 dBV (0.001 volt) to -40 dBV (0.010 volt). (dBu and [...]
Our Cable Management Protectors, featuring rubber construction,it is designed for covering cable runs outdoors at public events, where the risk of trips or falls must be minimised. With 2, 3 or 5 separate channels, it is ideal for live sound applications where multiple cable runs such as audio, lighting and power are required and [...]
These cables are designed to enable a normal microphone that has a 3-pin XLR output and unbalanced (mono) signal, to be connected to devices that have a stereo (Left and Right channel) input. The mono signal from the mic, is sent to both the Left and Right channels on the stereo input. Using a [...]
