Key Features
-
Standard 3-pin balanced XLR format — Provides connections for hot (+), cold (–), and ground/shield, enabling balanced audio signal transmission, which helps reject noise and interference, especially on long cable runs.
-
Rugged metal housing with durable build quality — Built to withstand repeated plugging/unplugging, mechanical stress, and general wear — suitable for studio, live-sound, broadcast, or installation use.
-
Secure locking latch mechanism — Once plugged into a male XLR, it locks in place so it won’t detach accidentally — ensures a solid, stable connection.
-
High-quality contact pins (corrosion-resistant) — Contact pins are designed for reliable conductivity and long service life, maintaining low contact resistance over time.
-
Universal compatibility — Because 3-pin XLR is an audio industry standard, this connector is compatible with microphones, mixers, audio interfaces, DI boxes, balanced line-level gear, and other pro-audio equipment.
-
Flexibility in wiring: solder or crimp options — You can wire balanced audio cables to it either by soldering or by using compatible crimp contacts, depending on your preference and skill level.
-
Balanced audio signal integrity — Using balanced wiring with this connector helps minimize hum, interference, and noise pickup — especially useful in environments with potential electrical noise or long cable runs.
