DMX CABLES:
When fabricating your own cables, always observe the illustrations on this page. Never connect the shielding
of the cable to the ground contact of the plug, and always make certain that the shielding does not come into
contact with the housing of the XLR plug. If the shielding is connected to the ground, this can lead to short-
circuiting and system malfunctions.
Pin Assignment:
DMX cable with 3-pin XLR connectors:
DMX cable with 5-pin XLR connectors:
DMX TERMINATORS (TERMINATING RESISTORS):
To prevent system errors, the last device in a DMX chain needs to be equipped with a terminating resistor (120
ohm, 1/4 Watt).
3-pin XLR connector with a terminating resistor: K3DMXT3
5-pin XLR connector with a terminating resistor: K3DMXT5
