SCBDM3-V - XLR 3 Pin Panel Mount Male

The SCBDM3-V is a 3-pin XLR male panel-mount socket engineered for compact, high-density audio and pro-AV equipment installations. Featuring a vertical PCB mount design, gold-plated contacts, and a durable steel latch lock, this connector is installed from the rear of the panel for a clean, professional front-facing finish. Its small footprint (23mm center-to-center spacing) makes it ideal for equipment where panel space is limited but reliable signal connectivity is critical.

Key Features

• 3-Pin XLR Male Configuration: Standard XLR male socket design with a separate ground contact connected to both the connector shell and front panel for reliable grounding.

• Compact, High-Density Layout: 23mm center-to-center spacing allows multiple sockets to be installed closely together on a single panel.

• Vertical PCB Mount: Designed for vertical PCB installation, simplifying integration into equipment circuit boards.

• Secure Latch Locking: Steel latch lock mechanism ensures a firm, vibration-resistant connection during use.

Material and Environmental Specifications

• Contact Material: Contacts are made from copper (Cu) alloy for strong electrical conductivity.

• Contact Plating: Gold (Au) plating on contacts improves durability and reduces oxidation over repeated use.

• Flame-Retardant Rating: Housing meets UL94V-0 flame-retardant standards for enhanced safety.

• Operating Temperature Range: Rated for use in -30°C to +80°C environments, suitable for varied climates.

Assembly Instructions

• Rear Panel Installation: Install the socket on the back of the panel through the designated panel cut-out.

• Screw Tightening Torque: Tighten the mounting screws clockwise using 0.45Nm of torque for a secure fit.

• Panel Thickness Limit: Maximum supported panel thickness is 3.0mm to ensure proper seating and lock engagement.

• Cut-Out Compatibility: Panel and PCB cut-out sizes are specified in the datasheet drawings for precise, error-free installation.
