50m XLR Cable Hire

Audio Hire’s 50-metre XLR cables are available for hire in Adelaide when professional audio equipment needs to be connected over a longer distance. They are particularly useful for connecting mixers, powered speakers and other compatible professional audio equipment when shorter cables will not reach between the required positions.

XLR is one of the standard connection types used throughout professional audio. A long XLR cable can provide considerably more flexibility when positioning equipment, particularly at larger venues, outdoor functions, performances and presentations where the mixer or audio source may need to be located some distance from the speakers.

The 50-metre length makes this cable useful for situations where equipment cannot practically be positioned close together, but it is still important to plan the cable route rather than simply choosing the longest cable available.

Connecting Mixers and Powered Speakers

A common use for a long XLR cable is carrying the audio signal from a mixer to a powered PA speaker.

For example, the mixer may need to be positioned near an operator or presentation area while the speakers are placed further away to provide appropriate coverage for the audience. A longer XLR run allows these components to be positioned according to the requirements of the sound system rather than being constrained by a short cable.

Where two powered speakers are being fed separately from a mixer, make sure you have the appropriate number of XLR cables for the complete setup.

XLR cables can also be used with many professional microphones and other compatible audio devices, although a 50-metre cable is generally intended for applications where the additional length is actually required.

Plan the Cable Route

When determining the cable length you need, consider the route the cable will actually follow. Cables often need to run around walls, stages, furniture, doorways or other obstacles rather than travelling directly between two pieces of equipment.

Long cable runs should also be positioned carefully to avoid unnecessary trip hazards and interference with guest, staff or performer movement.

Where an audio cable must cross an appropriate traffic area, Audio Hire also has cable covers available for hire. These can help protect suitable cables and create a more organised crossing point.

Good cable management is an important part of a professional audio setup, particularly where longer cable runs are involved.

XLR Cable Hire with Audio Equipment

50m XLR cables can be hired individually or added to a larger Audio Hire equipment booking. We also provide shorter or other available audio cables, microphones, mixers, speaker systems, extension leads and cable covers where required.

If you are putting together a complete PA system and are unsure how many cables or what lengths you need, tell Audio Hire what equipment you are connecting and approximately where each component will be positioned. We can help you consider the connections required for the complete system.

50m XLR cables can be collected from Audio Hire in Walkerville with your other equipment. Delivery and professional setup are also available across Adelaide where required.
