Hosa MSC-030 — Switchcraft XLR Microphone Cable, 30ft
MSC-030 Overview
The Hosa MSC-030 is a 30ft balanced microphone cable designed for professional audio applications where signal integrity and long-term durability are non-negotiable. Terminated with Switchcraft XLR3F and XLR3M connectors, it delivers the connection reliability demanded in live sound, broadcast, house of worship, and studio environments. The cable features 20 AWG dual OFC conductors and a 95% OFC braided shield that provides superior rejection of EMI and RFI interference. It is a practical, dependable choice for audio engineers, touring crews, and system integrators who require consistent performance across demanding use cases.
Internal strain relief on both XLR connectors reinforces the termination points against repeated connection cycles and cable stress, extending service life in high-use installations and touring rigs.
