Overview
The MonoPro™ XLR (500025, 500026) allows a
standard AES analog or digital audio channel to
be connected via Cat5e/6 unshielded twisted pair
cable (UTP) for the professional audio
environment.
The product features heavy duty cable strain
relief for rugged environments such as rental and
staging and is available with male or female
locking XLR3 connectors for added cabling
versatility.   May also be used as a solderless
connection point for standard shielded audio
cable.
Benefits
Cost efficient cabling via UTP
Robust design for professional use
