It doesn’t matter whether you’re a musician or a roadie, an audio engineer or a record producer – or whether you mix sound in a church, club, or stadium: When the faders come up, you want dependable, true sound reproduction.

ShowMeCables might be best known for computer connectivity products, from Ethernet to fiber optic to low-loss coax cables. But through the years we have also built up a huge variety of professional audio cables. To save you time as you shop, below we summarize each of our nine types of pro audio products – what it is, how it’s used, and unique product features.

1. XLR Audio Cables

• Connector Type: XLR connectors are known for their three-pin design, typically featuring male (plug) and female (socket) connectors.
• Common Uses: XLR audio cables are widely used in professional audio settings. They are primarily employed for connecting microphones to audio interfaces, mixers, and other audio equipment. They are also used for balanced audio connections, ensuring low noise and

USB-C right angle cables have become increasingly popular in recent years due to their numerous advantages over traditional straight cables. These cables (sometimes called USB 3.1), which feature a 90-degree bend at one end, offer a range of benefits that make them a preferred choice for many users. Whether you're a tech enthusiast or simply someone who wants a more convenient charging and data transfer experience, here are some advantages of a USB-C right angle cable:

1. Space-saving design: One of the main advantages of Universal Serial Bus C right angle cables is their space-saving design. The 90-degree bend allows the cable to lay flat against the device, minimizing the amount of space required. This is particularly useful when using devices in tight spaces or when there are multiple cables connected to a single device.
2. Prevents cable strain: Traditional straight cables often experience strain and bending when connected to devices, which can lead to fraying and breakage over time. A

Low-loss coaxial cable is designed to minimize signal loss when transmitting high-frequency electrical signals, particularly radio frequency (RF) signals. It is commonly used in applications where signal integrity is critical, such as in telecommunications, broadcasting, wireless communication, and high-frequency data transmission.

Below we discuss some of the main benefits and uses of low-loss coax and the differences among five popular types, from LMR-100 to LMR-600. We conclude with some unique features of ShowMeCables’ huge selection of these problem-solving products.

Low-Loss Coaxial Cable Benefits and Uses

Here are some key characteristics, benefits, and uses of low-loss coaxial cable:

• Low Signal Loss: Low-loss coaxial cables are designed with special materials and construction techniques to minimize signal attenuation (loss) over long distances. This is crucial for high-frequency applications where signal degradation can lead to poor performance.
• High Frequency Range: These cables
