Neutrik Pro Audio/Video Solutions

In any live performance situation the need for reliable connectivity solutions is mission critical. From rock shows to Broadway, sporting events to symphony halls, the microphones, amplifiers, mixing consoles, cameras, lighting, and other essential hardware are only as good as the connectors linking them together. With over thirty-five years of providing innovative solutions and superior quality, Neutrik is the connectivity source. Neutrik offers professional audio/video connectors that are contaminant, moisture, and weather resistant to a rating of IP65. This translates to a reliable connection regardless of environmental extremes and ensures the show will go on without a hitch from opening act to encore.

Neutrik connectors are tested to thousands of insertion/withdrawal cycles to make sure they can stand up to constant use and abuse seen on tours throughout the world. XLR connectors with features like; cage-style contacts to provide maximum mating surface area, capacitive filters to eliminate noise from RF interference and LF noise, chuck-type strain relief to properly support the cable, right angle versions for tight clearance connections and more. Neutrik doesn't stop there, with ¼" plugs and jacks featuring locking/retention mechanisms, "silent" plugs which eliminate buzz and hum when being connected, and non-riveted, single piece plug fingers which provides ultimate durability and resistance to breakage.

Today's pro audio/video world uses more than XLR and ¼" plugs. With the advent of music and signal transmission in the digital space, Neutrik has created a line of products with secure mating systems and increased bandwidth performance. Products like USBHDMIFireWire, and Ethernet connectors with push-pull locking mechanisms. Pre-terminated USB and HDMI patch cables with removable cable end housings or carriers for compatibility with non-Neutrik connectors when necessary. Ethernet products like etherCON are available in CAT5 and CAT6 versions and are compatible with standard RJ45 products.

HD video is not new to Neutrik. With a line of BNC products featuring a true 75 Ohm design that meet the stringent requirements of HDTV and sustain a consistent impendence at high frequencies up to 4.5GHz. The rearTWIST BNC connector is available in various sizes to accommodate many wire manufactures cables.

Fiber optic connectivity systems can also be sourced from Neutrik with a complete series of products for use in digital snakes, mixing consoles, broadcast (OB) trucks, studios, rental applications and more. Features like automatic sealing covers to protect the fibers in the unmated condition, hybrid cable versions with fiber and copper conductors, "X-Treme" versions that are cut proof and rodent resistant, all available in DUO, QUAD, or "Triple Split" versions depending on the number of fibers required.
