SOMMER-CABLE 520-0052 BINARY 234 AES/EBU DMX Cable (Blue)

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

The Sommer Cable 520-0052 ("Binary 234 AES/EBU MKII") is a professional digital audio and lighting control cable with a blue jacket. This color helps to easily visually distinguish digital DMX/AES cables from standard microphone cables on stage or in the studio.

The cable features large cross-section conductors (2 x 0.34 mm²), which allows for error-free transmission of digital signals (110 Ω) up to 1000 meters. The double shielding (aluminum-laminated fleece + copper spiral) ensures 100% protection against interference, making this cable a reliable choice for both complex lighting systems and high-quality digital audio recording.

Key Features

• Distance: 0.34 mm² conductors ensure a stable signal over long distances.
• Identification: Blue color allows for quick distinction from other cables.
• Shielding: 100% coverage (copper spiral + aluminum-laminated fleece) protects against electromagnetic noise.
