The CSD5 cable is designed from the inside out to be the finest stage and tour grade DMX cable available. Every component of the cable itself is carefully chosen with the end goal of creating a tough, flexible, and interference free DMX cable. The four primary stranded inner conductors each have 20 strands of 0.12 bare copper. While many cable companies will lower cost by using inferior materials here (like aluminum with a copper coating), Elite Core CSD is pure, from the inside out.
