RE: Custom XLR Viablue NF-S6 cable

Those are cool looking cables. Are the conductors silver?
There is a lot going on with those. If possible, you should try to find out from the manufacturer how they intended for them to be connected to balanced connectors.
In the absence of a recommendation by the manufacturer, I would try connecting the white wires to pin 2, black wires to pin 3, inner shield to pin 1 at both ends and outer shield to pin 1 at only the source end.
Test continuity before you try and use them.
