The connector carries up to 37A RMS per contact and uses Neutrik's twist-lock system to secure the connection against accidental disconnection during live performance or installation work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed in professional audio installations, live sound reinforcement and touring rigs, the NL4FXX-W-S terminates speaker cables running from amplifiers to passive loudspeakers. The screw terminals accept stranded copper cable up to 2.5mm² cross-section and provide a gas-tight connection that resists oxidation over time. The chuck-type strain relief grips the outer cable jacket without requiring additional cable glands or heat shrink.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe two-component housing combines a hard grey body with a green soft-touch grip section, giving a secure hold when inserting or removing the connector under stage or rigging conditions. The improved kink protection at the cable entry reduces stress on the conductors during repeated coiling and uncoiling. The IP20 rating provides basic protection against solid objects above 12mm but is not sealed against moisture, so outdoor use requires additional weatherproofing at the connection point.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNeutrik Speakon connectors are the global standard for loudspeaker connections in professional audio, with cross-compatibility across all major amplifier and loudspeaker manufacturers. The NL4FXX-W-S is typically rated for 5,000 mating cycles and operates across a -33°C to +80°C temperature range, covering both cold-weather outdoor events and high-temperature amplifier rack environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eContact resistance\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e≤ 2 mΩ\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLifetime\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTypically 5'000 mating cycles\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTerminals\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eScrew type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTemperature range\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e-33 °C to +80 °C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIP20\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCable : dimensions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6 -12mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat cable size does the NL4FXX-W-S accept?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe connector fits cables between 6mm and 12mm outer diameter. The screw terminals accept stranded conductors up to 2.5mm² cross-section. Speaker cable in the 2.5mm² to 4mm² range typically falls within the 6-12mm outer diameter when jacketed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's the current rating per contact?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEach of the four contacts is rated at 37A RMS. In a typical bi-amp configuration using contacts 1+\/1- for low frequency and 2+\/2- for high frequency, both pairs can carry 37A simultaneously without exceeding thermal limits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this plug compatible with all Speakon sockets?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The NL4FXX-W-S 4-pole plug mates with any Neutrik Speakon chassis socket (NL4MP, NL4MDV, NL4MMX) and is backwards-compatible with 2-pole Speakon sockets, where only contacts 1+\/1- will make connection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it be used outdoors?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe IP20 rating provides no moisture protection, so the connector is not weatherproof on its own. Outdoor installations require the mated connection to be housed inside a sealed enclosure or protected with a rubber boot or shroud to prevent water ingress.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AVSL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45313478754571,"sku":"763.481UK","price":6.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/763481UK_LD1_2367ac24-c052-4c07-86c2-9bb0df90e7e0.jpg?v=1715193894","url":"https:\/\/niori.co.uk\/products\/neutrik-nl4fxx-w-s-speakon-4-pole-cable-plug-6-12mm","provider":"Niori","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
