Using a dmx cable instead of an xlr microphone cable to connect fixtures is a sure-fire way to ensure there are no possible problems with strobing, flickering or loss of signal. Chauvet produces a variety of cables for all of its fixtures, including the 10ft 3-pin dmx cable. All Chauvet dmx cables are made specifically for lighting and meet stringent standards of suitability and quality to provide safety, shielding and prevent transmission interference. The DMX3P10FT has a dmx Connector, 3 pins and is 24 gauge.
