K-Series (3.5mm) Plugs & Jacks-Amphenol

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:

• Mono or TRS (Stereo).
• AX Series inspired shell design.
• Suits Cable O.D from 2.5mm to 5mm (0.098” to 0.196”)
• Robust diecast shell in Satin Nickel or Black finish.
• Nickel or Gold contact plating.
• Flexible grommet cable protection.
• Improved solderability.
• Precision machined contacts.
• Standard or Bulk packaging.

Options:

• Black Shell,
• Gold contacts.
