Product Information

Full details

This Loops 3 Pin Mini Din Male Solder Connector is designed for users needing to establish connections to devices featuring a 3-pin mini din port. Its primary benefit is providing a reliable and high-quality connection for specific audio and video applications, including VESA Stereo and Apple LocalTalk networks. A key caveat is its strict compatibility with only 3-pin mini din connections, rendering it unusable for other mini din variants. Key features include a nickel-plated connector, robust construction, strain relief, and ROHS compliance.

FAQs

What type of mini din connector is this?

This is a 3-pin mini din male solder connector.

Can this connector be used with any mini din port?

No, it is strictly compatible only with 3-pin mini din connections and will not work with other mini din configurations.

What applications is this connector commonly used for?

It is commonly used for VESA Stereo connections and Apple LocalTalk Networks, as well as other audio and video applications requiring a 3-pin mini din interface.

Does this connector come with a cable?

This listing is for the connector only. A separate cable is required.

What is the maximum outer diameter of the cable this connector can accept?

The connector can be used with cables that have an outer diameter of up to 5mm.

Is soldering required to use this connector?

Yes, this is a solder connector, meaning you will need to solder the wires to the pins for installation.

What does ROHS Compliance mean?

ROHS Compliance indicates that the product meets the Restriction of Hazardous Substances directive, meaning it is manufactured with limited amounts of specific hazardous materials.

Troubleshooting

No signal or intermittent connection

Verify that the connector is properly soldered to each wire. Ensure the cable is securely seated and the correct pins are connected. Check that the connected device also has a 3-pin mini din port and is functioning correctly. Inspect the cable for any breaks.

Connector does not fit device

Confirm that the device port is indeed a 3-pin mini din. This connector is not compatible with other mini din sizes. Ensure no debris is obstructing the port or the connector.

Cable is loose or pulling away

Re-secure the cable strain relief. If the cable jacket is too large for the strain relief, ensure it is properly clamped. If the solder joint is failing, re-solder the connection.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides a secure and high-quality connection.
  • Specifically designed for 3-pin mini din ports.
  • Durable construction with strain relief.
  • ROHS compliant for environmental safety.

Cons

  • Only compatible with 3-pin mini din connections.
  • Requires soldering for installation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This connector is exclusively designed for devices featuring a 3-pin mini din connection. It will not function with any other mini din configurations (e.g., 4-pin, 6-pin, 9-pin). The connector can accommodate cables with an outer diameter of up to 5mm.

Setup: Installation requires soldering.

  1. Prepare the cable by stripping the outer jacket and individual wire insulation as needed for your specific wiring.
  2. Insert the cable through the connector's rear strain relief.
  3. Solder each wire to its corresponding pin within the connector.
  4. Secure the cable strain relief.

Care: Due to its soldered nature, this connector is designed for permanent installations. To maintain optimal performance:

  • Avoid excessive pulling or bending of the cable near the connector.
  • Keep the connector and connected cable clean and dry.
  • Ensure proper soldering for a lasting connection.
