About this product
Black/Gold Neutrik NC3FXX-B female 3-pin XLR cable connector
This Black/Gold Neutrik NC3FXX-B is an XX Series female 3-pin XLR cable-end connector with a black chromium-finished metal housing and gold-plated contacts. It accepts 3.5–8.0 mm outside-diameter cable and uses solder termination with chuck-type strain relief. This listing is for one connector, not a finished cable or panel receptacle.
Choose your finish
This is the Black/Gold NC3FXX-B. Other single-connector finishes are NC3FXX Nickel/Silver and NC3FXX-BAG Black/Silver.
The female contact design includes a solder barrier to help prevent solder from entering the mating area. A solid metal latch secures the connection, while additional ground spring contacts support shell ground continuity.
The chuck-type strain relief grips the cable, and the polyurethane boot helps protect against bending stress at the cable entry. A rugged zinc diecast shell provides durability for regular stage and studio use.
Check cable compatibility
This connector accepts cable outside diameters from 3.5 to 8.0 mm and wire sizes up to 2.5 mm² (14 AWG). Check your cable’s jacket diameter and conductor size before ordering, and follow Neutrik’s assembly instructions when preparing and soldering the connection.
