SOMMER CABLE 520-0051 BINARY 234 AES/EBU DMX Cable (Black)

Sommer Cable Binary 234 AES/EBU MKII DMX Cable (Black)

The Sommer Cable 520-0051 ("Binary 234 AES/EBU MKII") is a high-end digital cable designed for demanding tasks where a standard cable is not enough. Its main distinguishing feature is its larger cross-section conductors (2 x 0.34 mm²). This allows for error-free transmission of digital AES/EBU and DMX signals up to 1000 meters (according to manufacturer's data).

The cable features double shielding: aluminum-vaporized fleece and a dense copper spiral, which ensures 100% protection against electrical and magnetic interference. Despite its robust construction and thick jacket, the cable remains flexible and resistant to mechanical impact, making it ideal for stage lighting trusses or mobile applications.

Key Features

• Distance: Thanks to the 0.34 mm² conductors, the signal is transmitted reliably even over very long distances.
• Standards: Fully compliant with AES/EBU and DMX requirements (110 Ω characteristic impedance).
• Shielding: 100% coverage (aluminum-coated fleece + copper spiral).
• Durability: Robust yet flexible jacket, resistant to pulling and bending.
