Neutrik Americas NC3FD-L-1 Xlr Female Panel Connector

Product Description

The NEUTRIK AMERICAS NC3FD-L-1 is a 3-pin XLR female panel mount connector finished in nickel with silver-plated contacts. Designed for permanent installation into panels, enclosures, and equipment chassis, it provides a secure, low-resistance termination point for balanced audio signal wiring. The locking D-style body locks into a standard D-sub cutout or XLR panel hole and resists accidental disconnection during live operation. Audio-visual installers and stage technicians rely on this connector type for reliable, repeatable signal integrity in demanding environments.

This connector is suited for use in professional audio panels, stage boxes, rack-mounted equipment, and fixed installation projects. It accepts standard 3-pin XLR male plugs and is appropriate for both residential integration work and commercial AV system builds where chassis-mounted female XLR terminations are required. The nickel shell and silver contacts are standard for line-level and microphone-level balanced audio applications.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by licensed AV integrators or qualified electricians. De-energize all equipment and disconnect signal sources before mounting or wiring the connector. Secure the connector body firmly into the panel cutout before soldering or crimping conductors to the terminal pins. Follow applicable NEC guidelines for low-voltage signal wiring in the installation environment.
