It's also called XLR. If it has pins, it's XLR male, if it has holes, it's XLR female.
well if your connecting it to a computer u might just wanna try an xlr male to xlr female cable as your input, and a xlr male to 3.5mm jack (mini jack) to your computers audio interface...
XLR refers, not to the cable (wire) per se, but actually to the type of connector used. An XLR connector has 3-pins and is used primarily in audio. Professional microphones and other audio equipment use it. Of the three pins, two are for the balanced signal, and one is for the shield. The wire used then is a two conductor shielded cable using a braided wire or a foil shield. So, an "XLR cable" refers to a two conductor, shielded cable with XLR connectors on each end.

To connect an RCA cable to an XLR cable, you must solder links one and three from the XLR together, and connect those two wires to the end of the RCA component, along with the second wire. It is very useful to use a diagram to make sure you connect the correct cables.

Connector and impedance
An XLR to USB cable has a converter in it. It isn't just a cable. An audio interface can be used to allow you to use any dynamic microphone or instrument and connect it to the USB or Firewire interface with an XLR cable.
