K-Tek KE-110CC Avalon Series Aluminum Boompole with Internal XLR Cable

Hi Alex, thank you for reaching out. The KE110 (uncabled) or better the KE110CC (coiled cabled) which you inquired about is available only with a coiled cable. A straight cable option can only be applied to the KE110 (uncabled version) by wrapping a cable around the outside of the pole. If the straight cable is wrapped outside of the pole, that can work well. But it is a tad cumbersome when the boom length needs to be changed (extend or collaps a bit). Then the wrapping of the cable has to be adjusted. If a straight cable inside the pole is wanted (higher end poles call that a "Flow-Thru" cable), then the bottom of the pole needs to be modified (not done by K-Tek though). Flow thru has the advantage of being able to use it in water situations (in a pool etc.). The dis-advantage is that the cable management is in your hand at the bottom of the pole. Coiled cable internally is a great feature, no real cable management necessary. The dis-advantage, to use it in a pool for example is not suggested, since the connectors might become a problem rather fast. I hope this helps. Again thank you for reaching out. Happy recordings!
