The Neutrik X-S Series female XLR straight cable connector is built for audio professionals who need reliable, field-serviceable cable termination across live sound, broadcast, and installed audio environments. The integrated noiseless ON/OFF switch short-circuits contacts 2 and 3, providing a clean mute function on microphones that lack a built-in switch — a practical solution for stage and broadcast mic management without signal artifacts.

Designed for the rigors of touring and installation work, this connector features a zinc diecast shell for long-term mechanical durability and a metal boot with rubber gland that resists bending stress at the cable exit point. The chuck-type strain relief system accommodates a range of cable diameters and locks securely without requiring specialized tooling. Solder contacts and a latch-lock mechanism ensure stable, low-resistance terminations that hold up through repeated connection cycles.

With an IP40 protection rating, UL 94 V-0 flammability compliance, and IEC 61076-2-103 standard conformance, this connector meets the environmental and electrical requirements expected in professional audio deployments. Its bronze contacts with gold plating over nickel deliver consistent electrical performance, making it a dependable choice over lower-grade connectors for permanent installs and road-use cable assemblies alike.
