Gepco's G37 12-channel DT12 connectors feature a new hard anodized aluminum backshell that locks in place with two set screws into a series of castellations.

At the recent NAB convention, Gepco International introduced the G37 12-channel DT12 connectors, which offer a new level of performance and reliability to the industry standard, 12-channel DT12 format.

Gepco's G37 connectors feature a new hard anodized aluminum backshell that locks in place with two setscrews into a series of castellations. The setscrews and castellation prevent accidental loosening of the connector shell thereby extending the operating life.

For additional durability, the male connector shell is constructed from stainless steel to prevent damage and keyway wear. The crack-proof neoprene insulator has been improved, now featuring a bonded and scalloped design that prevents rotation. As with previous Gepco DT12 connectors, the G37 is completely weather-tight, allowing for use in remote and hostile environments.

The electrical contacts — the critical part of the audio path — have also been improved. Both the pins and sockets feature a new three-micron, mil-spec gold plating for improved soldering and tarnish resistance. For strain relief, the G37 features an oversized nut and rubber gland seal with an optional kellem cord grip and heat shrink.
