Milk Multicore Cable DSub / XLRf 1m

MILK DSub / XLR Female Multicore Cable - 1 m

The MILK 1-meter DSub / XLR Female Multicore Cable is a multicore cable designed for audio connections using DSub connectors and Neutrik NC3FXX female XLR connectors. It uses Klotz PW08x PolyWIRE multicore cable and Neutrik connectors to establish connections between compatible audio equipment.

Klotz PW08x PolyWIRE Multicore Cable

The cable uses stranded bare copper conductors with a cross-sectional area of 0.22 mm². The pairs are insulated with red and blue polyethylene (PE) and feature individual shielding consisting of a stranded tinned copper drain wire and an AL/PETP foil.

The PVC jackets are numbered and color-coded in groups of eight pairs for easy identification. The outer jacket is made of black, soft, and opaque PVC.

Neutrik NC3FXX Female XLR Connectors

The cable is equipped with Neutrik NC3FXX connectors, 3-pole female XLRs from the XX series. The body is made of die-cast zinc with a nickel-plated finish, while the CuSn8 bronze contacts feature a 2 µm silver plating.

The connector incorporates a latch-lock mechanism with a metal latch, female contacts with a cage-style design, and a solder barrier to prevent solder from reaching the mating area. Additional ground contacts improve electrical continuity between the connector housing and the shielding. The clamp-style cable retainer enhances mechanical retention, while the polyurethane rear sleeve protects the cable from stress caused by bending.
