Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

300 ft spool of 5-pin DMX cable from American DJ. For installers and rental techs cutting custom runs rather than buying finished cables.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Permanent installs where cable runs are cut to exact length
  • Rental shops building a stock of custom DMX leads
  • Long truss or FOH runs where prebuilt cables come up short

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Anyone needing ready-to-use cables out of the box
  • Rigs running 3-pin DMX fixtures without adapters on hand
  • Single-fixture setups where one short prebuilt cable does the job

What matters in use

ACCU CABLE Spool 5-Pin DMX Cable 300 ft. construction detail

Detail 01

5-pin DMX

Many fixtures use 3-pin. Confirm your gear's connectors or plan on adapters at both ends.

Detail 02

300 ft spool

Bulk cable, so you decide run lengths. Also means you handle stripping and soldering every termination.

Detail 03

Sold as a spool

No connectors attached. Factor XLR ends into the cost of each cable you build.

Detail 04

Black jacket

Disappears against truss and dark stage floors. Harder to spot when tracing a run under work light.

Product questions

Before you decide

Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.

01Does this come with connectors?

No. It is bare cable on a spool. Buy 5-pin XLR connectors separately and terminate each run yourself.

02Can I use this with 3-pin fixtures?

Only with adapters, or by terminating one end in 3-pin. Check every fixture in the chain before ordering.

03How many cables can I make from 300 ft?

Depends on your run lengths. Ten 25 ft cables leaves 50 ft, for example. Plan your cuts before you start.

04Is 300 ft too long for one DMX run?

DMX has practical distance limits per run. Split long chains with a DMX splitter rather than pushing one continuous run too far.
