Adapter for 1/4" to XLR conversion

The Hosa Technology GXJ183 adapter provides a female 1/4-inch to female XLR connection. It suits audio engineers and musicians linking balanced or unbalanced cables between mixers, interfaces or stage boxes. The single-unit design handles straightforward signal routing in studio or live settings.

Practical limits of the adapter interface

The adapter passes the signal without active circuitry, so cable runs remain subject to the inherent constraints of the connected cables. Balanced operation depends on using balanced 1/4-inch TRS and XLR cables throughout the chain. Unbalanced TS cables will carry the signal but forfeit noise rejection over longer distances. No phantom power or level conversion is provided by this passive device.
