5-pin DIN socket ShiverPeaks 53110 metal flange mount — panel-mounted audio connector

Panel-mounted 5-pin DIN socket ShiverPeaks 53110 with a metal flange for secure fixture. Designed for audio and low-voltage signal connections, this flange-mount DIN connector provides standard 5-pin interfacing for equipment such as audio devices, synthesizers, MIDI gear and legacy AV units. The metal flange allows stable chassis or panel installation where a fixed DIN input/output is required, offering a straightforward mechanical and electrical connection point for compatible cables and devices.

Advantages

The ShiverPeaks 53110 flange-mounted DIN socket combines a standard 5-pin contact layout with a metal flange to enhance mechanical stability and grounding potential. Its panel-mount design facilitates neat installation in instrument panels, racks or enclosures, while the robust construction supports repeated cable insertion and removal. This connector is compatible with common 5-pin DIN plugs used in audio, MIDI and legacy AV applications.

Suitable for

• Connecting synthesizers and MIDI controllers to audio equipment
• Panel installations for audio input/output on amplifiers, mixers or effects units
• Repair or retrofitting of legacy AV or hi-fi equipment that uses 5-pin DIN
• Low-voltage signal routing in custom enclosures and control panels

Key specifications

• Connector type: 5-pin DIN socket
• Mounting style: panel / flange mount
• Material: metal flange and contacts (housing details per manufacturer)
• Intended use: audio and low-voltage signal connections (including MIDI and legacy AV)
• Application environment: chassis, instrument panel, rack or enclosure mounting

How to use

Install the ShiverPeaks 53110 into the prepared panel cutout and secure it using the flange fastenings. Route and solder or crimp the internal wiring to the socket contacts following the equipment's wiring diagram and electrical safety practices. After mechanical fastening and wiring, verify continuity and correct pin assignments with a multimeter before connecting external devices. Use compatible 5-pin DIN plugs and cables for reliable mating.

Recommendations

When installing the flange-mounted DIN socket, ensure the panel cutout and mounting screws are correctly aligned to avoid stress on the connector. Use strain relief for connected cables where possible and check grounding continuity if the metal flange is intended to provide chassis ground. Avoid applying excessive torque to mating plugs to prolong contact life.
