Audio Hardware : Neutrik dummyPLUG - pcmusicNeutrik USA is helping keep the dust out of unused chassis connector inputs through its newest product accessory, dummyPLUG (NDL). Since dust can build up, especially with larger audio consoles with several inputs that are not all necessarily being used at the same time, the dummyPLUGs are designed to protect unmated Neutrik 2 and 4 pole speakON chassis and powerCON chassis connectors.

dummyPLUGs are rubber covers that fully protect the connector in the unmated condition. dummyPLUGs do not only serve as protection for Neutrik speakON and powerCON chassis connectors, but can also provide convenience and security in the studio or out on the road, as unused inputs can be covered, avoiding any confusion or miss wiring during setup.

For more information, please visit their website.
