Connection plate Audac CP45SPES/B with D-size speaker terminal, solderless, black

Audac CP45SPES/B is a solderless connection plate with a D-size speaker terminal in a black finish. The plate provides a compact mounting interface for speaker wiring and is intended for installations where a reliable, tool-friendly speaker connection is required without soldering. Its low-profile design allows integration into professional audio setups, public address systems and retrofit projects where space and accessibility are important.

Advantages

The solderless D-size speaker terminal simplifies wiring by allowing stranded or solid speaker cable to be secured without the need for soldering or special tools. The black finish offers a discreet appearance that fits into most installation environments. The compact plate reduces panel space usage while providing a stable mechanical and electrical connection for speaker lines. Built with typical professional audio installation requirements in mind, it supports straightforward replacement or upgrade of existing connection points.

Suitable for

• Professional audio installations in venues and studios
• Public address (PA) systems and paging installations
• Retrofit and upgrade projects for speaker panels
• Wall or rack-mounted termination points where solderless connections are preferred

Key specifications

• Connection type: solderless D-size speaker terminal
• Finish: black
• Mounting: compact plate for panel or wall mounting
• Cable compatibility: supports stranded and solid speaker wire (insert and secure terminal)
• Use environment: indoor professional audio and PA systems

How to use

Mount the connection plate into the prepared cut-out or mounting location using appropriate fasteners. Insert stripped speaker cable into the D-size terminal and secure according to the terminal's clamping mechanism, ensuring a firm mechanical and electrical contact. Verify polarity and continuity before powering audio equipment. No soldering is required; connections can be reworked or replaced quickly if needed.

Usage recommendations

Use adequately sized speaker cable and strip insulation to the recommended length for the terminal to ensure reliable contact. Tighten the terminal clamp to the manufacturer’s recommended torque where specified, avoid over-tightening. For permanent installations in humid or dusty environments, consider additional protection or sealing of the mounting area to preserve contact integrity.
