HPC Series
Panel Mounts and Cord Plugs
Switchcraft recently introduced a complete line of panel mount
speaker connectors that are completely compatible with the
Neutrik
®
Speakon
®
4 pole series. We are now introducing a
complete line of cable mounts as well. The complete HPC
Series offers both panel mount
and
cord mount connectors.
The HPC panel mounts have been updated with new
silver-plated contact materials that boost the contact ratings to
30A per UL 1977 on PC mount versions, 50A per UL 1977
on Faston
®
versions.
They are still available with either 0.100"
depth flanges or 0.200" depth flanges. The 0.200" depth flange
allows for rear mounting of the HPC Series, and proper mating
of all cord plugs. The panel mount versions are available with
either 0.187" or 0.250" Faston
®
terminals, and either straight or
right angle PC mount terminals. The right angle PC mount
version also has, as an option, a mounting post which allows
the connector to snap onto the PC board for wave soldering.
The HPC cord plugs are available in either straight, right
angle, or as an in-line. The in-line version mates with either the
straight or right angle cord plug, allowing the end user to
extend cable runs. All cord plugs are compatible with Speakon
®
panel mounts. The in-line mates with our HPC cord plugs, as
well as Speakon
®
cord plugs. The unique feature of the HPC
series cord plugs are the “push to lock” feature, similar to the
connection of an XLR connector. The HPC cord plugs, when
mated to either HPC panel mounts or Speakon
®
panel mounts
do not require a 1/4" turn to engage. Simply push the connector
in until it locks. To disengage, push forward on the latch lever
and pull the connector out. This feature eliminates the need to
remember to turn the connector to make contact. All HPC cord
plugs utilize 0.250" Faston
®
terminals, which allow for easy
assembly, and make it easy to change cord plugs. To change
from a straight cord plug to an in-line cord plug, back off the
strain relief nut, twist off the handle, disconnect the Faston
®
terminals, fasten the new cord connector, twist on the handle
and the strain relief. Barbs on the handle keep the handle from
vibrating loose from the front shell.
Both HPC panel mounts and cord plugs incorporate a built-in
gasket, which allows them to meet IP 25 harsh environment
ratings, as well as IEC 529 and IEC 1010-1 safety ratings.
