Adapter panel connector Procab VC3FDL — female 3-pin XLR panel mount

Procab VC3FDL is a panel-mount adapter with a female 3-pin XLR connector designed for professional audio and stage installations. It provides a fixed mounting solution for balanced microphone and line-level connections, enabling reliable, standard XLR termination in rack panels, wall plates or custom enclosures. The construction is intended to withstand repeated connection cycles and to integrate cleanly into existing panel cutouts for stage, studio, and installation use.

Advantages

The adapter delivers a secure and standardized XLR female termination for permanent panel installations, reducing cable strain and improving connector accessibility. Its design simplifies wiring during installation and maintenance while offering mechanical stability for frequent use. The Procab manufacturing quality ensures consistent contact performance and compatibility with common 3-pin XLR cables and microphones.

Suitable for

• Rack panels and audio equipment front plates
• Wall plates in fixed audio installations
• Custom speaker enclosures or distribution boxes
• Stage and studio patch bays

Key specifications

• Connector type: female 3-pin XLR (panel mount)
• Mounting style: panel cutout, fixed mount
• Contact configuration: 3 contacts for balanced audio
• Intended use: microphone and line-level balanced signals
• Mechanical durability: designed for repeated mating cycles

How to use

Install the adapter by preparing an appropriate panel cutout and securing the unit into the panel with the mounting hardware provided or recommended for the panel type. Solder or crimp the internal wiring to the connector contacts according to pin assignment for balanced audio (pin 1 = ground, pin 2 = hot/positive, pin 3 = cold/negative). After installation, route cables to reduce mechanical strain on the connector and verify continuity and polarity before putting the connection into service.

Usage recommendations

For reliable long-term performance, use compatible XLR cables and avoid excessive twisting or bending at the connector. Perform occasional inspections for secure mounting and clean contact surfaces to maintain low-noise connections in studio and stage environments.
