Neutrik marks 2-billionth connector during 50th anniversary celebrations

Neutrik has celebrated reaching the milestone of the creation of the 2-billionth connector with a civic reception at Neutrik Group headquarters in Schaan, Liechtenstein. A guest list of 45 included invitees from national and local government and media, as well as from within the company and its partner networks. Welcoming speeches were given by Robert Büchel, Liechtenstein Minister of Economic Affairs, and Markus Beck, Deputy Mayor of Schaan. Also present was Manfred Kaufmann, President of the Liechtenstein Parliament.

The event featured a celebratory program of presentations that included a retrospective of five decades of the connector brand, and the presentation of the 2-billionth Neutrik connector to Georg Wohlwend, delegate of the Board of Directors for the Neutrik Group.

Since its inception in 1975, the Neutrik brand has been at the forefront of interconnect technology, consistently redefining industry standards and norms - from its XLR and SpeakOn connectors to the PowerCon power connectivity series, and the advancements inherent in OpticalCon fiber optic and EtherCon data solutions.

Marking its milestone half-century, and celebrating the brand’s accomplishments and vision for the future, a special limited edition 50th Anniversary product line has been issued to commemorate this historic occasion. This commences with the release of special anniversary edition male and female XLR connectors and a 1/4-inch instrument plug. These feature a new conductive zinc based coating, providing a dark grey metallic finish with a laser engraved “Neutrik 50 Years” anniversary commemorative logo.

The new coating provides corrosion protection with full electrical isolation, in compliance with latest RoHS and Reach requirements. The contacts are gold-plated. The female XLR features a matching plated push button for seamless design integration.
