About Panel Mount Connectors
Panel mount connectors, also called chassis connectors, are the sockets used to build patch panels, stage boxes and wall plates. In studios and live setups a patch panel puts a large number of connections in one neat, mess-free spot, and because these sockets share the universal D-shape mounting footprint, any combination can be fitted into an empty panel to suit the job.
XLR and TRS sockets are the most common choices, but nearly any connection, analogue or digital, is available as a panel mount socket, including HDMI, USB and ethernet options. The range features Neutrik panel mount connectors alongside value alternatives. Building or repairing leads as well? Browse XLR connectors, jack connectors and the full range of audio connectors.
They mount into patch panels, stage boxes, racks and wall plates to bring connections to a fixed point. An engineer can lay out exactly the inputs and outputs a studio or stage needs, then keep the permanent cabling tidy behind the panel.
Yes. Chassis connector, chassis socket and panel mount connector all describe the same part: a connector designed to bolt into a panel or enclosure rather than terminate a cable.
Most audio panel mount connectors follow the universal D-shape footprint, so mixed brands and connector types can share one panel. Check the mounting dimensions on each listing if you are fitting an existing cutout.
