The coupler uses Neutrik's twist-lock mating system, which requires a quarter-turn clockwise rotation to engage the locking mechanism and secure both cable connections.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsed in live sound reinforcement, installed audio systems, and touring applications where speaker cable runs need to be extended without re-terminating existing cables. The lockable back-to-back design prevents accidental disconnection during setup, breakdown, or when cables are under tension. The 4-pole configuration supports bi-amped or full-range speaker configurations using all four conductors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe NL4MMX body is constructed from die-cast metal shell with a black finish, providing shielding and durability in high-traffic environments. Each connector end accepts a standard NL4 Speakon cable plug (female termination), and the twist-lock mechanism engages when the cable plug is inserted and rotated clockwise. The coupler is rated for the same current-carrying capacity as standard NL4 cable connectors, supporting up to 40A per pole.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFrequently Asked\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat cable ends does this coupler accept?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe NL4MMX has male Speakon connectors on both ends, so it accepts two NL4 Speakon cable plugs (female terminations). It cannot be used with bare wire or other connector types.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs it suitable for outdoor or touring use?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. The die-cast metal shell and twist-lock mechanism provide durability and secure connections in demanding environments. However, the coupler is not IP-rated for weather protection, so it should be kept dry when used outdoors.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan it be used with 2-pole Speakon cables?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. NL2 Speakon cable plugs (2-pole) will physically mate with the NL4MMX coupler, but only poles 1+ and 1- will be connected. The additional two poles in the NL4 coupler will remain unused.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat current rating does it support?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe NL4MMX is rated for up to 40A per pole, matching the specification of standard NL4 Speakon cable connectors. This supports high-power speaker runs without additional risk of overheating at the coupler joint.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"AVSL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45313478525195,"sku":"763.469UK","price":8.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8993\/3835\/files\/763469UK_LD1_baebbd3f-c753-4959-8648-2f679a2e74f0.jpg?v=1715193889","url":"https:\/\/niori.co.uk\/products\/neutrik-nl4mmx-4-pole-speakon-in-line-coupler","provider":"Niori","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
