Van Damme Pro Grade Classic XKE Pro-patch
cable has been specifically designed as a
4.85mm overall diameter cable to suit Neutrik

applications requiring a lower OD cable.
Its braided screen and tightly packed
construction ensure that the smaller size in
no way compromises the mechanical and
sonic integrity.

• For mic and line level analogue balanced audio
• Bantam patch cords and bantam adaptor cables
• Shorter mic cables and XLR splitter cables

Application notes
• Further improved outer jacket ensures cable remains flexible in
sub zero temperatures
• Tightly packed cotton fillers ensure no static build up and even
capacitance
• Available in 10 colours for application or length colour coding
• 95% optical coverage braided screen for excellent mechanical
strength and EMI/RFI rejection
• Combination of silver plated and plain ultra pure oxygen free copper
conductors for unsurpassed sound quality
