Overview

Balanced XLR male to stripped and tinned leads with a selectable attenuator built into the XLR. Attenuation ratios are -20, -30 and -40 dB. Used to reduce line level signals to mic level inputs into a mixer. By placing the attenuator at the mixer input (male XLR), ground loop noise is greatly reduced since the cable's shield sees line level signals over all its length.This adapter cable attenuates a balanced audio signal for an optimal match into audio equipment designed for signals lower than line level. It is supplied with a six foot shielded cable, stripped and tinned. Cut the cable to desired length, if necessary, and attach the connector needed for your application. Resistors built onto the circuit board at the output end provide 20 dB of attenuation as supplied by the factory. Additional attenuation can be achieved by applying a solder bridge between the center pad and the pad on one side or the other as needed

Features

• Selectable 20dB, 30dB and 40dB attenuation
• Often used with VR Field receiver to reduce the audio outputs to mic level
• Attenuation selected with solder bridge for reliability
• Attenuation applied at output end to preserve signal to noise ratio
• Standard XLR A3M male connector
• Six foot shielded cable - cut to desired length and terminate as needed
