This 3-Pin XLR Female Mounting Connector is a studio-grade audio component designed for secure, balanced signal transmission. Featuring a robust metal housing and a precision locking mechanism, this connector is the industry standard for integrating professional audio inputs into patch bays, stage boxes, powered speakers, and custom mixing consoles.
Secure Latching Mechanism: Features a professional push-button release lock that ensures a tight, vibration-proof connection, preventing accidental cable disconnects during live performances or recording sessions.
3-Pin Balanced Design: Engineered for high-fidelity audio, supporting balanced signal paths that effectively cancel out electromagnetic interference and hum over long cable runs.
Universal D-Style Flange: Designed with a standardized mounting footprint and dual pre-drilled screw holes, allowing for easy "front-mount" or "rear-mount" installation into any standard rack panel or equipment chassis.
Durable Nickel-Plated Housing: The rugged metallic exterior provides excellent RF shielding and mechanical protection against the rigors of touring and frequent plugging.
Precision Solder Cups: Equipped with three easy-to-access rear solder terminals designed for permanent, low-resistance wiring with standard shielded audio cables.
Silver-Plated Contacts: Features high-conductivity internal pins to ensure maximum signal integrity and corrosion resistance over years of professional use.
Connector Type: XLR Female (Socket).
Number of Contacts: 3 Pins.
Mounting Type: Panel Mount
Housing Material: Nickel Plated.
Termination Style: Solder Cups.
Standard Wiring: Pin 1 (Ground/Shield), Pin 2 (Hot/Positive), Pin 3 (Cold/Negative).
Application: Microphone inputs, active speaker interfaces, studio wall plates, and broadcast equipment.
What is the difference between a male and female XLR mounting connector? In professional audio, the Female connector (this model) is almost always used as the Input on a device (like a mixer or speaker). The Male connector is used as the Output. This "gender" convention prevents users from accidentally connecting two power-carrying outputs together.
Is it hard to solder these onto a cable? Not at all. The solder cups on the back are specifically designed to "cradle" the wire, making it easy to create a strong, clean joint. It is recommended to use heat-shrink tubing over each pin after soldering to prevent short circuits between the pins.
Will this fit in a standard D-series rack panel? Yes, this connector follows the standard dimensions for D-series mounting. Whether you are building a custom stage box or filling a 1U rack panel, the hole spacing and flange size are compatible with most professional audio mounting hardware.
