24AWG DMX Cables – Reliable Connections
for Every Stage

DMX Cables

In the world of stage lighting and live productions, your setup is only as strong as the cables that connect it. A well-built DMX cable ensures smooth data transfer, prevents interference, and keeps your show running without a hitch. That’s why Illusion Universe 24AWG DMX Cables are trusted by DJs, theaters, concert venues, and touring professionals who need reliability night after night.

Engineered with Precision

Our DMX cables use oxygen-free copper conductors to guarantee clear and accurate data flow. The twisted pair design with HDPE insulation reduces distortion, while the dual-layer shielding (Duo foil® with 100% coverage plus a 77% tinned copper braid) protects signals from outside interference—even in high-noise environments.

 

This design ensures stable performance, whether you’re running a small club rig or a large-scale touring system.

Built to Last

● Insulation: High-density polyethylene for flexibility and protection

DMX vs XLR Cables – What’s the Difference?

​At first glance, DMX and XLR cables may look the same, but they serve different purposes:

 

DMX Cables Designed for DMX512 protocol (lighting control) with 120-ohm impedance. Perfect for transmitting digital data without flickering or dropouts.

 

XLR Cables Designed for audio transmission with 45–75 ohm impedance. Great for microphones and sound equipment but not suitable for digital lighting signals.

 

In short:

● DMX Cable = Lighting Control

● XLR Cable = Audio Signal

 

Using the wrong cable can cause signal issues, flickering lights, or even system failure—so always choose the right one for the job.
