Hosa DTP-803: Professional DB25 to TRS Snake (3 Meter)
The Hosa DTP-803 is the indispensable link for any audio engineer striving for a tidy studio and crystal clear signal transmission. This high-quality analog multicore (snake) cable is specifically designed to connect equipment with a DB25 output (such as audio interfaces, mixing consoles or outboard gear) to equipment with Balanced TRS (jack) inputs.
At 3 meters in length, the DTP-803 provides the perfect balance between freedom of movement and minimizing signal loss from excessively long cables.
Why Choose the Hosa DTP-803?
In a professional studio environment, cable management is crucial. The Hosa DTP-803 replaces eight separate patch cables with one streamlined cable, which not only saves space behind your rack, but also reduces the risk of interference and cable breaks.
Key Features:
Superior Signal Transfer: Thanks to Oxygen-Free Copper (OFC) conductors, you enjoy enhanced signal clarity and minimal resistance.
Effective Shielding: The cable features high-quality OFC spiral shielding that effectively suppresses electromagnetic (EMI) and radio frequency (RFI) interference.
Durable Connectors: Equipped with rugged metal housings and molded strain relief, so the cable can withstand heavy use in both studio and live tracks.
Industry Standard Pinout: Follows the Tascam standard for DB25 connectivity, making it compatible with most modern interfaces from brands such as Focusrite, Universal Audio, Antelope and, of course, Tascam itself.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is the Hosa DTP-803 compatible with my audio interface?
Yes, provided your interface uses the Tascam DB25 standard. This is the most common standard for brands such as Universal Audio (Apollo), Focusrite (RedNet/ISA), and Apogee. Always check your device’s manual if in doubt about the pinout.
Can I use this cable for both inputs and outputs?
The DTP-803 is an analog cable. You can use it to send 8 analog outputs from a DB25 port to 8 TRS inputs, or vice versa (from TRS sources to a DB25 input), as long as the signal is balanced.
What is the advantage of TRS over TS with this cable?
The TRS connectors are balanced. This means they are much less susceptible to hum and noise, which is essential in longer cable lengths and professional audio recording.
Is this cable also suitable for digital signals (AES/EBU)?
No, the DTP-803 is specifically designed for analog audio transport. For digital AES/EBU signals, you need cables with a specific impedance of .
