Hosa EBU-003 AES/EBU Cable — 110-Ohm XLR Digital Audio Cable, 3ft
EBU-003 Overview
The Hosa EBU-003 is a professional-grade AES/EBU digital audio cable engineered to meet the AES3 standard with a true 110-ohm characteristic impedance, preventing signal reflections and jitter that degrade clocking accuracy in digital systems. Terminated with XLR3F to XLR3M connectors, it is built for connecting digital audio interfaces, A/D and D/A converters, digital mixing consoles, system processors, and studio monitors with digital inputs. The cable also satisfies DMX512 requirements, making it a practical addition to any production or touring kit. It is suited for studio engineers, system integrators, live sound engineers, and lighting technicians who require reliable, impedance-matched digital interconnects.
At 3 feet, the EBU-003 is well suited for short rack-to-rack or console-to-processor runs where cable management and signal integrity are equally critical.
