Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

A two-foot Mogami eight-channel snake with a DB25 on one end and TRS on the other, for linking rack gear to a converter's D-sub port.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Patching an interface D-sub to eight TRS inputs in one rack
  • Short converter-to-summing-box runs where cable slack is a nuisance
  • Permanent studio installs that need a clean, low-noise tie line

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Anyone needing reach — two feet is rack-jumper length
  • XLR-terminated gear; these ends are TRS
  • Budget builds, since a plain patch harness costs far less

What matters in use

The specifications, translated

Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.

Mogami Gold 8 Channel DB25-TRS Snake Cable 2 ft. construction detail

Detail 01

Two feet long

Rack-jumper length. It ties adjacent units together and won't reach across a room or under a floor.

Detail 02

Served spiral shield

Spiral shielding stays flexible and coils easily, which matters more than braid stiffness on short rack runs.

Detail 03

2.5 mV max hum pickup

Very low induced noise, so it can sit near power supplies and transformers without adding audible buzz.

Detail 04

50 mV max microphonics

Handling and footfall noise stay low. Useful if the cable runs across a floor rather than through a rack.

Detail 05

XLPE insulation, 130 pF/m capacitance

Low capacitance keeps high frequencies intact over the run, though at two feet the effect is minor either way.

Detail 06

-20 to +70 deg C rating

Fine in a hot rack or an unconditioned room. Not a constraint in normal studio use.

Final check

Know before you order

  1. 01Confirm your gear's DB25 pinout before ordering — conventions differ between manufacturers
  2. 02TRS ends are balanced; unbalanced TS gear halves the noise benefit
  3. 03Measure the rack gap first — two feet disappears fast behind gear

Product questions

Before you decide

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

01Is this balanced?

The TRS ends carry balanced signal per channel, matching the DB25's eight balanced pairs. Plug into balanced inputs to get the full benefit.

02Will it work with my interface?

It works with any unit whose D-sub follows the same pinout as your gear. Check both ends' pinout charts before buying.

03Can I use it for mic signals?

The ends are TRS, not XLR, so it suits line-level connections between rack units rather than direct microphone runs.

04Why is a two-foot cable this expensive?

It's eight shielded channels in one jacket with a soldered 25-pin connector, so you're paying for eight cables plus the D-sub termination.
