Detail 01
Female XLR fan ends
These accept male outputs, so the run carries signal into the DB25 device. Wrong end for feeding outboard gear.

MogamiGold 8 Channel DB25-XLR Female Snake Cable 20 ft.
1/8
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Eight-channel 20-foot analog snake with a single DB25 on one end and eight female XLRs on the other. For rack wiring, not stage duty.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Feeding an interface or converter's DB25 input bank from mics
- Tidying eight preamp inputs into one rack connector
- Semi-permanent studio runs between racks or through a wall
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Anyone needing male XLRs to drive amps or monitors
- Touring use — spiral shield is not stage-abuse rated
- Runs longer than 20 feet; there is no slack to spare
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.
Detail 02
25 AWG stranded conductors
Thin per-channel wire keeps the eight-pair bundle flexible. Fine at mic and line level over short distances.
Detail 03
XLPE insulation, 130 pF/m
Low capacitance per foot, so treble stays intact on multi-channel runs instead of rolling off.
Detail 04
Served (spiral) shield
Coils and bends more easily than braid and resists kinking, but is less rugged if repeatedly stepped on.
Detail 05
2.5 mV max electrostatic hum pickup
Quiet enough to run near power gear in a rack without audible buzz on mic-level channels.
Detail 06
UL13 CL2, −20 to +70 °C
Jacket rating suited to permanent installed runs, including through walls and conduit where local code allows.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Confirm your gear's DB25 pinout matches; manufacturers wire the connector differently
- 02No thumbscrews torque tool, breakout box, or labels included
- 03Twenty feet is the whole run — measure the rack path first
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Can I use this to connect outputs to my console?
Only if the console inputs take male XLR from a separate cable. The fan ends here are female, so they receive signal rather than send it.
02Will it work with any DB25 audio gear?
Only gear using the same DB25 pinout. Check your manual before ordering; mismatched pinouts swap channels or short the connection.
03Is this good for live sound?
Better suited to installed and rack use. The spiral shield and flexible PVC jacket favor easy routing over repeated stage coiling and foot traffic.
04Does it pass phantom power?
It is a passive analog cable with all pins wired straight through, so phantom power travels with the signal like on any standard XLR run.
