Description

This panel-mount 3.5mm audio jack socket provides a simple and reliable way to extend 3.5mm stereo audio interfaces to the outer surface of desktop panels, industrial equipment enclosures, custom chassis, audio consoles and test instrument panels. It is commonly used for headphone output, line-level audio input/output, microphone signal extension, communication equipment audio ports and industrial panel audio access.

The connector adopts a standard 1/8″ (3.5mm) TRS stereo female design, supporting Tip, Ring and Sleeve connections for left channel, right channel and common ground. It is compatible with most consumer audio devices, headsets, test equipment and industrial audio accessories. The metal flange and threaded body allow it to be installed into standard panel cutouts, with a locking nut and washer providing stable mounting even in vibration-prone environments.

Constructed with metal housing and gold-plated or tin-plated contacts, this 3.5mm panel-mount socket offers good conductivity, low signal loss and long-term plugging durability. The insulator material provides clear separation between signal contacts, helping to reduce crosstalk and ensure clean audio transmission. It is available in solder lug version, PCB pin version and right-angle pin version, making it suitable for different internal connection methods.

It is widely used in desktop audio panels, industrial control cabinet audio ports, test and measurement instruments, communication base station panels, public address systems, custom equipment front panels and DIY chassis projects. The connector supports both temporary external connection and permanent panel integration, making it suitable for system integrators, equipment manufacturers and audio installation projects.

Standard options include silver metal housing, black plastic or metal housing, straight pins, right-angle pins and solder lug terminals. Bulk orders can be customized with connector finish, pin layout, mounting thread length and private-label packaging.
