Hosa CMK-005AU 5' Edge Series XLR3F to XLR3M Microphone Cable

Product Overview

The Hosa CMK-005AU is a 5 ft Hosa Edge Series XLR microphone cable sized for short runs at the lectern, desktop, or stage edge where a microphone meets a nearby mic preamp or stage box. Terminated XLR3F to XLR3M with genuine Neutrik connectors, this Neutrik XLR microphone cable carries balanced audio with reliable EMI/RFI rejection. The low capacitance microphone cable construction keeps high-frequency detail intact across the run. A 5 ft length suits podium mics, instrument patching, and conference room AV connections.

Product Description

Hosa Edge Microphone Cables are engineered to deliver a lifetime of consistent, noise-free performance. The CMK-005AU combines genuine Neutrik connectors with precise manufacturing to provide a clean signal path for studio recording, live stage use, and conference or AV room installations.

The cable is built around 20 AWG OFC mic cable conductors with low-capacitance wire for clear high-frequency transmission and a strong signal-to-noise ratio. A 95% OFC braided shield rejects interference, making this a dependable balanced microphone cable for studio and stage applications. At 5 ft, it offers a small amount of slack while keeping clutter down in tight install spaces.

The genuine Neutrik XLR3F and XLR3M connectors hold a secure mating over many connect and disconnect cycles, which is valuable in rooms that are reconfigured regularly. If your layout calls for more reach, compare the CMK-003AU 3 ft or the CMK-020AU 20 ft. The full Hosa collection lists matching cables and accessories.
