Elite Core VRL 5-Pin DMX 25' ft Pro-Lighting Shielded Cables | LED-Data | Low Capacitance | VRLDMX5P25

Going to agree with the other reserved approvals of this product. Haven't used it yet, but my standard practice with all M/F cables is to plug the ends into each other during storage. This avoids tangles and protects the connectors against damage and foreign objects. Well, I just couldn't do it. They wouldn't connect. Not the first time this ever happened, so I inspected the pins for bends, the shells for dents, and so on. Found nothing. Eventually, I could see that the pins were leaving little indentations in the plastic near the holes in the female end, and that they were all slightly below the holes. The pins on the male end were all a bit low. Close inspection showed they were all straight and parallel to each other, but they were all slightly angled downward, not along the common central axis of the two connectors. I used a screwdriver to push upward on the center pin and, when I did, I heard a distinct snap, and felt the whole interior piece of the connector (the plastic part inside the shell, in which the pins are all mounted) move. After that, the two ends connected perfectly.This is an inexpensive cable and, if it works, I'm not going to return it or anything like that. And this isn't the first (nor, alas, do I expect it will be the last) time I've had to "repair" a brand new piece of gear. But life is short enough that I do think paying for something and then having to fix its imperfections before I can use it as intended is kind of depressing. On the other hand, I keep hearing that laissez faire capitalism is the surest way to get good products at low prices, so I must be underestimating what a joyous thing this crummy Chinese wire really is.FOLLOW UP: It does work.

This is a very high quality DMX cable. I work in a high-traffic area, and I have no doubt this will hold up for a very long time. This company is awesome, emailed me to make sure I was happy with the product. Will buy again if needed.

I use a lot of DMX in lighting shows. The specifications on this cable were good. The only thing about this cable that, for me as my shows are mission critical and have to work, is that the cable bigins to crinkle and kink after one use. I don't know what they used for the conducitive sleeve but I can't risk a short or the time it would take to run down a problem caused by it in during a show. All of the cables I purchased are used only for testng equipment at the shop; not for shows. Good luck

It works for what I needed it too. Nothing special but I am only using it for an outdoor Christmas light display. served it's purpose but you get what you pay for. I do not see this lasting very long. Again, would I buy this again? Yes but I am not breaking down equipment every night. If I were, I would spend the money on a bit more higher end stuff.

Great dmx cables, will keep ordering them no issues whatsoever. You can make them yourself much easier but when you don't have connectors or whatnot then ordering these is your next best bet.

nice & long cable for my black box theater

Exactly the special cable needed to improve our lighting control setup. Well made, flexible and well priced.

While the durability has not been tested yet the price can't be beat for a medium duty cord. Light in weight and lifetime warranty

Seems good quality, works super well. Feels good. Only used a few times but no issues

Nice cables. Just wish shorter lengths were available.
