RCA Series, Amphenol-Plugs & Jacks

Amphenol’s plugs and sockets range continually expand to meet the needs of our customers. The success of the M-Series phone plugs led to the RCA series being developed. The Miniature XLR range was a natural progression from our standard XLR series as the demand for smaller interconnects increased. The latest addition to the range is a professional grade 3.5mm phone plug designed for applications that require a robust interconnect.

Features:

Stylish design
Flexible grommet cable protection
Robust diecast shell
Gold plated contacts
Colour coded
Good solderability
Quick and easy assembly
Panel mount utilizes standard ‘D’ type housing
