Whirlwind Custom 5' 10" Patch Cable: Belden 8412, Whirlwind XLR Male to Long Frame 1/4" (B-Gauge)

Upgrade your studio with this professional, custom-built patch cable. This unit combines the industry-standard Belden 8412 bulk cable with a precision Whirlwind M642/2-2 connector. It is designed for high-density patching where signal transparency and "road-proof" durability are required.

Premium Components

• Belden 8412 Cable: A legendary "workhorse" in the audio industry. Features a heavy-duty EPDM rubber jacket and a 90% tinned copper braid shield for superior RFI/EMI rejection and maximum physical durability.
• Whirlwind M642/2-2 Connector: This is a Long Frame 1/4" (B-Gauge/MIL-spec) plug. It is designed specifically for professional consoles and patch bays (like those from ADC, Switchcraft, or Bittree) and offers a much more secure contact than standard TRS.
• Whirlwind XLR Male Connector: Precision-engineered, heavy-duty locking connector with excellent strain relief.

Applications

The 5-foot 10-inch length is perfect for:

• Outboard-to-Bay Routing: Reaching from a sidecar rack to a center-section patch bay.
• Interfacing Pro Gear: Connecting the XLR output of high-end preamps or compressors directly into a military-spec signal chain.
• Touring/Mobile Rigs: Because of the rubberized Belden 8412 jacket, this cable excels in environments where gear is frequently moved.
