With its distinguishing black cap color, the CT-LPXR-18K from Cable Techniques is an 18" XLR cable with an angle-adjustable cable-outlet orientation. You can adjust the cable outlet from 30 to 150°, as well as from 210 to 330°, to better suit whichever device you're hooking into, be it a Sound Devices unit (the 633, 688, 788T, 302, 552, for example), a Zaxcom device, a piece of Zoom gear, or indeed, many such location-audio kits. Lightweight at 1.6 oz, the cable has been built to promote minimal intrusion and with preserving durability, with its rugged 3.2mm cable-jacket diameter and crush- and tear-resistant cable material.
