Abstract

Embodiments of the invention describe an electrical audio connector assembly used in a variety of applications, such as for connecting audio components for transferring audio signals. For example, microphones may be connected to other electrical components by XLR connectors or a phone line. An electrical audio connector assembly includes an XLR connector or three pins and an RJ connector mounted on opposite ends of a body structure. Three metal binding posts project from the body structure, and are conductively coupled to both the XLR connector and the RJ connector.
