Pre-assembled XLR connector rack panel saves time and space
Cliff Electronics is launching a new version of its popular pre-assembled connector rack panels. The CP30183 rack panel features 8 male and 8 female 3-pin front mounted XLR sockets. Cliff's pre-assembled connector panels assist systems integrators by simplifying and speeding up assembly time while reducing component count and cost
Widely used in audio and broadcast (studio and mobile) applications the new loaded rack panel is also suitable for instrumentation and control connectivity. The connectors have solder tag connections and a cable strain relief bracket is provided to secure internal wiring against strain and vibration. A connector labelling strip is located on the front of the panel to allow users to identify each connector.
Other pre-assembled rack panels available from Cliff feature 16 of their FeedThrough connectors each and available in the following configurations: 50ohm, 75ohm and 75ohm gold insulated BNC, CAT6 RJ45 and CAT6A, HDMI A to HDMI A, USB2 A to USB2 B and USB2 B to USB2 A. Fibre Optic connector types ST / BFOC, LC duplex SM and LC duplex MM. Two other non-Feedthrough versions are mounted with XLR 3DCM and XLR 3DCF connectors.
