Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a male or female XLR connector?
This is a male XLR plug with three pin contacts (designated PIN / XLR-3-12C), intended for cable termination.
What wire attachment method does this connector use?
The insert features solder cup terminals numbered 1, 2, and 3 on the rear for direct wire soldering.
How does the XLR-3-12C differ from the XLR-3-11C?
The XLR-3-12C is the male cable plug with pin contacts, whereas the XLR-3-11C is the matching female cable connector with socket contacts.
Cannon created the XLR standard back when studio hardware was built like industrial plumbing, and these original metal-shell plugs still outlast almost anything on the road. Strip your cable, solder three cups, and put a proven standard back on the line.
