XLR Adapter Omnitronic 3-pin Plug to 5-pin Socket, Model 30226575

Compact XLR adapter by Omnitronic converting a 3-pin male XLR connector to a 5-pin female XLR connector. This adapter enables physical connection between equipment with different XLR pin counts, allowing microphones, mixers, lighting controllers and other audio or stage devices to be linked without altering existing cables or fixtures. The model is designed for straightforward inline use where a short, reliable conversion is required.

Advantages

The adapter provides a simple mechanical solution for connecting 3-pin outputs to 5-pin inputs while preserving signal continuity. Its compact housing reduces clutter and keeps connection points close to devices. The metal connector shells ensure secure mating and reliable contact in live environments. No soldering or cable re-termination is needed, saving time during setup or troubleshooting.

How to use

Insert the 3-pin male XLR connector into the corresponding female output on your source device, then plug the 5-pin female end of the adapter into the 5-pin male cable or input on your destination device. Ensure connectors are fully seated and locked where applicable. Check signal routing and device pin assignments before applying audio or power to avoid unintended connections. Use the adapter only for compatible low-voltage audio or control signals as intended.

Recommendations

Verify compatibility of signal types (e.g., balanced audio versus DMX/control signals) before connecting. Avoid excessive mechanical strain on the adapter by supporting nearby cables, and disconnect under no-load conditions when reconfiguring live systems.
