CONNECTOR CAPACITY
ACE Full Stage Pockets Connector Capacity:
• 12 “Connectrix”, Neutrik®, or Switchcraft® Connectors
“CONNECTRIX” Connectors combine Neutrik® “D”
and Switchcraft® “E” Mounting Hole Patterns for
Greater Flexibility
The “CONNECTRIX” system connectors may be used in
any of the “CONNECTRIX” system panels utilizing our
“CONNECTRIX” cutout which incorporates the popular
mounting pattern of the Neutrik “D” and Switchcraft “E”
series mounting patterns. Connectors using the generous
rectangular “CONNECTRIX” cutout will add to a growing ar-
ray of adapter-mounted standard connectors. The adapter
mount is plastic and provides ground isolation between the
panel and connector.
When ordering, please specify connector model number,
model name, and type of connector as well as panel model
number (#PNL-100 Series, #PNL-120 Series, or #PNL-140
Series) the connectors will be loaded into. NOTE: Specific
High Density (HD) and Sub-D pattern connectors will re-
quire either 2 or 3 “CONNECTRIX” Horizontal Spaces or 2
or 3 “CONNECTRIX” Vertical Spaces, depending on connec-
tors selected. Connectors may be loaded into panels with
nutcerts and nut/bolts or black aluminum pop rivets.

“CONNECTRIX” SYSTEM PANEL DESCRIPTION
Many pre-cut stock #PNL-100 Series, #PNL-120 Series
“CONNECTRIX” System connector panels and #PSW-
100 Series Switchcraft® connector panels are available
for the Full Stage Pocket. Standard “CONNECTRIX” and
Switchcraft® Panels are created from high strength, tough,
aircraft aluminum alloy (6061-T6) that is 1/16” (.062”) or
1/8” (.125”) thick.
The standard panels mount with (4 or 6) self-tapping screws.
Each panel is CNC machined to precisely mate with the
designated connectors and in the pocket mounting holes.
Each Standard “CONNECTRIX” and Switchcraft® Panel is
finished with oven cured semi-gloss black powder coat.
Most panels provide header space for custom engraving
which is fast and easily accomplished on a separate dedi-
cated CNC engraving machine. The finished panels show
bright aluminum in the engraved characters and need not
be back filled. ACE standard panels are flat, strong, and
rigid like the typical thinner mild steel panels. Because
the panels are machined and not punched they stay flat
and undistorted unlike punched panels which distort in the
punching process.
The machined “CONNECTRIX” style cutouts combine popular
mounting patterns of the Neutrik “D” series and Switchcraft
“E” series connectors with a generous rectangular cutout
that mates with a growing array of adapter-mounted
standard connectors. The adapter mount is plastic and
provides ground isolation between the panel and connector.
Using the “CONNECTRIX” system panel it is possible to
mount any combination of modular jacks (RJ45, RJ11 etc.),
BNCs, dual RCAs, mic jacks, speaker jacks and numerous
other standard connectors without a single custom punch.
This system provides for more connectors and mounting
options in stock standard ACE panels. The benefit is faster
order turn around and lower cost. Less custom fabrication
for custom spec results with off-the-shelf stock prices.
