Product Description
Overview
The KUPO ID RING-P 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
Purple is useful when the usual red, blue, yellow, and green codes are already assigned and a distinct channel is needed. In a rack, on a dimmer line, or around a console snake, the purple ring gives the cable a visible code that survives normal handling better than a paper label wrapped in a hurry.
Key Features
- Purple 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-P 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-P 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
Do I need to take the XLR plug apart to fit ID RING-P?
No. The ring is designed as a slip-on identification accessory, so it can be attached without unsoldering the insert.
Will it work on both 3-pin and 5-pin XLR plugs?
Yes. The specification lists compatibility with standard 3-pin and 5-pin XLR plugs.
Why choose purple for cable ID?
Purple is useful as part of a color-coding system, whether you use it for departments, universes, cable lengths, fixture positions, or owner identification.
