Frequently Asked Questions
What does the IP65 rating mean?
The IP65 rating indicates that the connector is completely protected against dust ingress (the first digit '6') and is protected against low-pressure water jets from any direction (the second digit '5'). This makes it suitable for outdoor use and in humid conditions.
Is this Powerconnector TR connector compatible with Neutrik powerCON connectors?
Powerconnector TR connectors are designed to be compatible with Neutrik powerCON type connectors, ensuring broad interoperability with most professional equipment on the market that uses this standard.
What is the advantage of a locking connector over a standard one?
The rotating locking mechanism prevents accidental disconnections caused by vibrations, pulling, or tripping over the cable. This is crucial in high-traffic environments such as stages or walkways, where a loss of power to equipment can be critical.
Can I use this cable to power any device?
This cable is designed for professional equipment requiring a Powerconnector input and with a current draw not exceeding 16 amps. It is not suitable for standard household appliances or equipment with a higher current draw than specified.
