Product Description
Overview
The KUPO KCWDP222TBK Portable DMX Data Cable is built for professional lighting control runs that need stable signal behavior and a flexible jacket. It combines 22 AWG (American Wire Gauge) tinned-copper conductors, foamed polyethylene insulation, 100% aluminum/mylar foil shielding, and a dedicated tinned-copper drain wire inside a matte black soft-PVC jacket.
Why It Matters
The single-pair format is compact and direct, making it a practical cable stock for one DMX512 universe per run. The cable is specified for DMX512 use, with ETL-verified performance, flame-retardant construction, and a jacket designed to resist UV and fungus during portable production work.
