Connector Notes
Connectors are listed alphabetically and the "X" signifies that the connector will fit in the panel type for that column.
The "Type" column identifies what type of connector it is:

B = BULKHEAD = Female connector on front and back
S = SOLDER = Solder points on rear of connector
T = TERMINAL = Screw Terminals or Punch Down for solder less


Possible Options:
CI = Colored Insulators
CW = Colored Washers
SC = Shell Color


Some examples:

Example #1

Let's say you need a panel with  RCA Bulkheads and SVHS Bulkheads:

As you find your connectors in the chart you see there would be three possible panel solutions - the 1/2" D, XLR, and the Master Rack Panel & Module Plates.

This would tell you that this request is no problem to produce - once we obtain some more info we'll determine the best choice to use.


Example #2

Let's say you need a panel with SVHS, RCA, HDMI, 3.5MM, HD15, and F Bulkheads:

As you find your connectors in the chart you see there would be two possible panel solutions - the XLR, and the Master Rack Panel & Module Plates.

This would tell you that this request is no problem to produce - once we obtain some more info we'll determine the best choice to use.


Example #3

Take the same example above but add a DVI bulkhead

As you find your connectors in the chart you can see there would be one possible panel solution - the Master Rack Panel & Module Plates.

This would tell you that this request is no problem to produce.
