AT4060 Cardioid Condenser Tube Microphone

Audio-Technica’s AT4060 cardioid vacuum tube condenser brings the warmth of vintage tube sound to every shade of the SPL spectrum. With a dynamic range that far exceeds that of other tube microphones, it as easily captures the subtlest nuances of vocal and instrumental performance as it handles guitar cabinets and other extreme SPL environments. Featuring hand-selected, individually tested and aged tubes, the AT4060 achieves the coveted, classic sound of valve design without compromising the specification standards required for the most demanding recording situations.

Hello,
I need to change the cable with a mogami cable, but I don't know what pin (1-6) correspond with.
Can you give me the technical properties of the pins 1-6 (i.e, mic output, bias, heater circuit), please.

Bonjour,

Merci
