Hosa MSC-050 — Switchcraft XLR Microphone Cable, 50ft
MSC-050 Overview
The Hosa MSC-050 is a 50-foot balanced microphone cable designed for professional audio applications including live sound, broadcast, and studio use. Terminated with Switchcraft XLR3F and XLR3M connectors, it delivers dependable connectivity with the mechanical reliability that touring and installation professionals require. The cable features 20 AWG dual oxygen-free copper (OFC) conductors and a 95% OFC braided shield for effective rejection of EMI and RFI interference. It is well suited for audio engineers, system integrators, houses of worship, and venues requiring consistent, long-run microphone signal transmission.
Internal strain relief on the XLR connectors reduces stress at the termination points, extending cable service life in high-use and touring environments.
