It fits standard D-series XLR cutouts, allowing integrators to add compliant network jacks to existing panels without custom fabrication or adapters. PCB vertical termination suits in-box or rack-panel circuit board assemblies where horizontal clearance is limited.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnlike generic RJ45 bulkhead connectors, the NE8FDV-YK is engineered specifically to mate with etherCON cable connectors, which latch onto the receptacle for a mechanically secure connection that resists accidental pull-out during live production. This retention mechanism is critical in environments where cables under tension or frequent patch changes would otherwise compromise a standard snap-fit RJ45. Category 5 compliance supports 10Base-T and 100Base-TX Ethernet, making it suitable for Dante, AES67, and similar AVB\/AoIP signal chains. The yellow and black housing follows Whirlwind color convention for rapid identification on crowded panels or in low-light stage environments.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Whirlwind Music Dist., Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52445903323320,"sku":"25052","price":15.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0871\/7382\/4696\/files\/25052_WHIRLWI-NE8FDV-YK_ALT01sqr.jpg?v=1783971086","url":"https:\/\/soundpro.com\/products\/neutrik-ne8fdv-yk","provider":"SoundPro","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
