RapcoHorizon AES-5 5' AES/EBU Cable

Professional 5-Foot AES EBU Digital Audio Cable

The RapcoHorizon AES-5 is a 5-foot AES/EBU digital audio cable designed to provide accurate, noise-resistant signal transfer between professional digital audio devices. It is ideal for short interconnects in studios, broadcast racks, and production environments where clean digital audio transmission is critical.

Built for Reliable AES EBU Signal Performance

Engineered specifically for AES/EBU digital audio standards, this cable maintains the required 100-ohm impedance needed for stable data transmission. Proper impedance control helps reduce jitter, signal reflection, and data errors when connecting digital mixers, interfaces, converters, and recorders.

ProCo Digital Cable Construction for Consistency

The AES-5 is constructed using ProCo 225BD digital audio cable, known for dependable performance in professional applications. Dual 25-gauge conductors support balanced digital signals while ensuring consistent impedance across the entire cable length.

High Shielding to Reduce Interference

A bare annealed copper braided shield provides extensive coverage to help block electromagnetic and radio frequency interference. This shielding design allows the cable to perform reliably in environments filled with power sources, lighting systems, and other electronic equipment.

Neutrik XLR Connectors with Gold-Plated Contacts

The cable is terminated with Neutrik NC3FX-B and NC3MX-B black XLR connectors for secure and dependable connections. Gold-plated contacts improve conductivity and resist corrosion, helping preserve signal integrity over long-term use.

Durable Jacket for Studio and Rack Use

A flexible matte PVC jacket protects the internal conductors while remaining easy to route in tight rack spaces or desktop setups. The compact 5-foot length makes this cable ideal for short digital audio runs without excess slack.
