Amphenol's patented SwitchPlug employs a unique 360 degree precision sliding helical spring contact design to quietly and accurately switch the signal circuit to ground during instrument changes under load, thereby avoiding annoying buzzing, thumps, pops and squeals. The sliding ring contact self-cleans every time the plug is connected preventing excessive build-up of oxidization and contamination. Activation is directly off the jack's front face ensuring a positive reference point, and as it works instantaneously on the main circuits there is no need for the use of magnets or other elaborate switching mechanisms.
Each of Amphenol's 1/4'' phone connectors features a rugged diecast shell, machined contacts, patented ''Jaws'' cable clamp, and is engineered to be easy to assemble. The company's wide range of options ensures that Amphenol's got you covered the next time you build a microphone cable, balanced patch cable, headphone cable, or instrument cable for your guitar, bass, or keyboard.
Amphenol Australia has manufactured innovative pro sound connectors since 1955. The company's T Series 1/4'' phone plugs show how the company is pushing the design of pro connectors forward without sacrificing quality.
