Check out Brian S Redd's video on the same subject, titled: DMX Cable Vs Microphone Cable - What's The Difference?
-
DMX cables are made to transfer data and XLR cables are made to transfer audio. If you use a XLR cable as a DMX cable, there could be data loss between the DMX controller and the light fixture. It is NEVER ok to substitute one for the other because DMX cables are only made for data between lighting fixtures and XLR cables are only made for audio.

@1ABCMIKE Agreed - He's got a fantastic lighting video out - you should carry it in your store!
-
@abbeylanedj Sometimes a DMX cable might not actually have DMX printed on it, but instead it may say Data. Just look for one of those words usually, DMX or Data.
-
@abbeylanedj, All "professional" cables will have text printed on them.

How do you tell the difference in the cables if they're not in the packages?

@abbeylanedj Some DMX cables will say RS-485 on it, or, DMX, Digital or Digital Laser, Etc. On the other hand, if it says "low noise audio" or "mic" or "audio" it is not DMX. There are a few exceptions.... Thanks, Mike
