Sennheiser AC50-2 Adapter Cable - Special 3-Pin Connector to Male XLR (4.11 ft / 1.5m)

Audio adapter cable from Sennheiser special 3-pin connector to male XLR for 2000/3000/5000 Series

The Sennheiser AC50-2 is a 4.11-foot (1.5m) adapter cable that converts between the proprietary Sennheiser special 3-pin audio connector and a standard male XLR connector. Designed for Sennheiser 2000, 3000, and 5000 Series wireless components, this cable enables direct connection from Sennheiser wireless equipment to standard female XLR audio inputs on mixers, stage boxes, processors, and recording interfaces.

The male XLR termination on the AC50-2 plugs directly into standard female XLR inputs, making it the correct adapter when connecting a Sennheiser component's special 3-pin output directly to audio equipment without an intermediate cable. The 1.5-meter length handles typical rack wiring distances while keeping cable management clean.
