XLR 3-Pin Female to RJ45 Female Adapter Cable
$9.00 / pc · MOQ 500 pcs
The long-run trick: XLR female to RJ45 female — any CAT-5 cable becomes a DMX512/XLR extension. Shielded, light, flexible, durable. Confirm the pin map per order.
- Description
This adapter converts an XLR connector to an RJ45 connector, making it possible to use any CAT-5 Ethernet cable as a DMX512/XLR cable — the standard trick for running lighting or audio signal across distances and through building runs where proper multicore would be expensive: the network cabling already in the walls becomes the signal path.
The adapter is shielded to prevent distortion and maintain clear, crisp signal, light weight and extremely flexible, with high-quality durable connectors. One honest note that prevents an onsite surprise: XLR-to-RJ45 pin mappings vary across the industry — both ends of a run must use adapters wired to the same mapping. We confirm the pin map in writing with every order, and matched pairs are the safe purchase.

FAQ
Can one adapter do the job alone?
No — a run needs an adapter at each end, wired to the same pin map; mismatched mappings are the classic failure.
Does it carry Ethernet too?
No — it borrows the cable, not the network; never connect it to live network equipment.
