XLR Connectors

The stakes are high in professional audio and signal transmission. You need connectors that deliver precision, reliability, and durability. XLR Connectors are engineered to eliminate common pain points like signal interference, connection failures, and compatibility issues, making them the ultimate choice for buyers seeking high-performance solutions. 

Material Options

Brass, copper (gold-plated), die-cast zinc, nickel-plated steel, and high-temperature thermoplastics.

Cable Diameter Range

3 mm to 8 mm, with strain relief options for secure cable fitting.

Temperature Range

-40°C to +85°C for reliable performance in extreme environments.

Load Capacity

Supports up to 16 amps for power and signal applications, depending on pin configuration.

Vibration Resistance

Rated for high vibration environments with secure locking mechanisms and durable construction.

Product Description

XLR connectors use a balanced 3-pin design that minimizes noise by rejecting electromagnetic interference (EMI). This ensures pristine sound quality and accurate signal transfer, even in electrically noisy environments. The gold-plated contact pins enhance conductivity and reduce signal loss, making them ideal for professional audio, video, and broadcasting applications. 

Corrosion Resistance

Nickel and gold plating resist corrosion, even in humid or saline conditions.

EMI Shielding

Balanced design and metal housing provide 99% EMI/RFI rejection for signal integrity.

Mounting Options

Inline, panel mount, or chassis mount configurations available for versatile system integration.

Compliance Standards

Meets IEC 61076-2-103, RoHS, and REACH standards for professional and industrial use.

Custom Features

Color-coded shells, pin configurations (3 to 7 pins), and custom engraving options.

UV Resistance

UV-stabilized outer shell materials prevent degradation under prolonged sunlight exposure.

Fire Resistance Rating

UL94 V-0 rated thermoplastics ensure fire safety in critical applications.

Chemical Resistance

Resistant to oils, solvents, and mild acids for harsh industrial settings.

Thermal Expansion Tolerance

Engineered for low expansion coefficients, ensuring stability under rapid temperature fluctuations.

Dynamic Load Testing

Tested for up to 5000 mating cycles under dynamic load conditions.

Precision Tolerances

Machined to ±0.05 mm tolerances for accurate and secure connections.

Technical Advantages

Our XLR connectors are constructed from high-grade materials like nickel-plated shells and thermoplastic insulation, ensuring resistance to wear, corrosion, and extreme temperatures. The rugged build quality supports thousands of mating cycles, making them reliable for studio setups, live performances, and industrial equipment. 

The locking mechanism in our XLR connectors provides a secure and stable connection, preventing accidental disconnection during critical operations. The precision-engineered latching system ensures a firm fit without damaging the cables or mating connectors.

Having Doubts? Our FAQ

Check all our Frequently Asked Question

How does the balanced design of XLR connectors reduce noise interference?

XLR connectors use a balanced 3-pin design, where two pins carry identical but opposite signals (positive and negative), and the third pin is ground. Any external noise picked up by the cable affects both signal pins equally. When the signals reach the receiving device, the opposite polarity cancels out the noise, ensuring clean, interference-free transmission. This design is especially effective in noisy environments like live events or industrial setups. 

What materials are used in XLR connectors to ensure durability and conductivity?

High-quality XLR connectors feature contact pins made from brass or copper, often gold-plated, to enhance conductivity and resist oxidation. The connector body is typically made of die-cast zinc or nickel-plated steel, offering excellent resistance to corrosion and wear. The insulation between pins is made of high-temperature thermoplastic, which ensures stability and prevents signal crosstalk even under extreme conditions. 

Can XLR connectors handle digital signals, and how do they maintain signal integrity?

Yes, XLR connectors are widely used for digital audio signals, such as AES/EBU formats. Their balanced design minimizes electromagnetic interference, while the connectors’ impedance (typically 110 ohms for digital audio) ensures proper signal matching and reduces reflections in high-speed data transmissions. This ensures accurate and distortion-free digital signal transfer. 

How do XLR connectors prevent accidental disconnection during use?

XLR connectors feature a built-in locking mechanism that secures the male and female ends together. The latching system engages when the connector is inserted, preventing unintentional disconnections caused by vibrations or movement. To disconnect, you must manually release the latch, ensuring the connection remains stable during critical applications like live performances or broadcast events. 

Are XLR connectors suitable for transmitting power, and if so, what applications use this feature?

Yes, XLR connectors can transmit low-voltage power and audio or data signals. For instance, 4-pin and 5-pin XLR connectors are commonly used in video production to power cameras or lights. The robust pin design and secure connection ensure stable power delivery, while the connector’s shielding protects against interference, making them ideal for both signal and power transmission in professional setups.
