Create professional power interfaces with our 5.5mm x 2.1mm Panel Mount DC Power Jack. This heavy-duty female socket is the industry standard for 12V and 24V power applications. Featuring a threaded body and a secure hex nut, it is designed to be mounted through the wall of any project box, enclosure, or control panel, providing a rock-solid connection point for your external power adapters.
DIY Electronics Projects: The go-to power input for Arduino, Raspberry Pi (via buck converter), and custom hobbyist circuits.
CCTV & Security: Replace damaged power jacks on security cameras or DVR units.
LED Lighting: Create custom controllers for LED strips and mood lighting systems.
Audio Gear: Ideal for guitar pedals, small amplifiers, and synthesizers that use a standard 2.1mm center pin.
Universal 5.5mm x 2.1mm Fit: Compatible with the vast majority of universal AC/DC power adapters on the market.
Easy Panel Mounting: Features a threaded barrel and included hex nut for a clean, secure fit in holes typically 8mm to 11mm in diameter (depending on shell style).
Reliable Solder Terminals: Equipped with high-conductivity solder lugs (usually 2 or 3 pins) for a permanent, low-resistance connection to your internal wiring.
Integrated Cut-off Switch: Many of our 2.1mm jacks include a third pin for an "internal/external" power switch—automatically disconnecting battery power when a DC plug is inserted.
High Heat Resistance: The high-quality PBT or nylon insulator can withstand the heat of soldering without melting or shifting pins.
Industrial Durability: Rated for thousands of insertion cycles, making it perfect for equipment that is powered on and off frequently.
Secure Contact: Internal spring-loaded contacts ensure a tight grip on the male plug, preventing accidental power disconnects.
Connector Size: 5.5mm (Outer Diameter) x 2.1mm (Inner Pin)
Mounting Type: Panel Mount (Threaded)
Contact Configuration: 2-Pin (Positive/Negative) or 3-Pin (With internal switch)
Is this the same as the 2.5mm version?
No. While the 5.5mm outer diameter is the same, the inner pin on this model is 2.1mm. A 2.5mm plug will feel loose or not work at all, and a 2.1mm plug will not fit onto a 2.5mm pin. Always verify your adapter pin size!
How do I know which pin is Positive (+)?
Typically, the center pin (the shorter terminal) is Positive, and the outer sleeve (the longer terminal) is Negative. However, always use a multimeter to verify your specific wiring.
What size hole do I need to drill?
Most 5.5 x 2.1mm jacks require a approx. 11mm hole for the threaded barrel.
