XLR Low-Profile Connector 

Assembly Instructions

Installing the Low-Profile connectors is quick & easy and below are some tips to get 

you on your way to “DIY” custom cable making. Specific instructions for XLR and TA 

are clearly noted. Since you’re making your own cables we’ll assume you know how 

to tin the connector cups and prep the cable leads so we will not include these basic 

solder techniques in our instructions.

What’s in the Package:

- M or F Connector Shell 

- Insert, 3-pin or 5-pin

- Color Cap

- (2) Grub Screws

- Mini Zip-Tie

- Hex Wrench

Besides the 1.5mm Hex wrench [which is included] you do not need any special tools 

beyond what is standard to install classic straight XLR connectors.  Method is the same 

for Male or Female connectors.

1.

  Remove approximately 12mm of the cable jacket. Fray and twist the shield tight and 

TIN ONLY about 4mm at the end.
