Rode XLR Cable 6m Black - Premium Balanced Microphone Cable

Rode XLR Cable 6m in Black: Twenty Feet of Professional-Standard Balanced Reach

The Rode XLR Cable 6m in black is a premium balanced XLR microphone cable, 20 ft (6 m) long with 3-pin male-to-female connectors. Terminated with a 3-pin XLR male and female connector, it gives you room to place a microphone across the room while the black jacket stays out of sight. It is the cable that gets out of the way and simply works.

How a Balanced XLR Connection Stays Dead Quiet

Every professional microphone connection is balanced for one reason: noise rejection. The audio rides on two conductors as opposite-polarity copies within a shielded jacket, and when the signal reaches your interface one copy is flipped back and the pair is added together, cancelling any hum or radio interference the cable absorbed along its length. This premium XLR cable is built around that principle, so the sound that reaches your recording is the sound your microphone actually captured.

Twenty Feet of Black That Blends Into the Background

At 20 ft (6 m), this black XLR gives you the reach to place a microphone across a room or a stage while keeping the run visually invisible. Black cable disappears against dark floors, stands, and staging, so a long lead never becomes a distraction on camera or in a live shot. It is the understated default for longer runs, and because the XLR range also comes in six brighter colours, you can keep your long runs black and reserve colour for the leads you need to identify.

Built to Last, Ready to Work

A cable is only as good as the day it stops working, and this one is engineered against that day. Professional-grade shielded cable is fitted with tough, road-ready connectors and strain-relief sleeves that take the strain off the internal solder joints every time you coil it or pull it from a socket. Built to exacting tolerances, it shrugs off the repeated flexing and plugging that ends the life of lesser cables. At 20 ft (6 m) it is built for distance, connecting a stage or room-placed microphone to a mixer, interface, or recorder without stretching the run tight, and it suits live sound, rehearsal spaces, and larger studios where the source sits well away from your gear. For anyone who needs reach without sacrificing a clean, quiet signal, it is the long run you can trust.
