Product Description
Overview
The KUPO ID RING-B XLR Color-Coded ID Ring is a small cable-management part that solves a real shop-floor problem: finding the right XLR line fast. It slips onto a standard XLR plug, so crews can identify signal paths, cable ownership, departments, or fixture groups without opening the connector or resoldering the insert.
Why It Matters
Blue is a clean choice for identifying a DMX universe, audio feed, department, or cable length that crews need to find quickly. In a rack, on a dimmer line, or around a console snake, the blue ring gives the cable a visible code that survives normal handling better than a paper label wrapped in a hurry.
Key Features
- Blue identification ring for fast cable recognition
- Durable PA (polyamide) construction
- Fits standard 3-pin and 5-pin XLR plugs
- Slip-on installation requires no unsoldering or insert removal
- Part of a six-color ID ring family for organized cable systems
Applications
ID RING-B is useful for DMX512 control lines, audio-style XLR cable inventories, fixture groups, rental-house sorting, touring looms, console outputs, and any situation where cables need a simple visual code.
Compatibility
The ID RING-B is designed for standard 3-pin and 5-pin XLR plugs. Check the plug body style before bulk installation if the connector has unusual strain relief or shell geometry.
Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose blue for cable ID?
