Middle Atlantic AV7005BK 3.5mm Stereo Mini-Jack to Captive Screw Terminal Adapter
Overview
The Middle Atlantic AV7005BK is a single-port, 3.5mm stereo mini-jack to captive screw terminal adapter finished in black. It solves a common rack and wall-plate integration problem: connecting a device with a 3.5mm stereo output — such as a DSP, media player, or control processor — to a screw-terminal input block without running exposed bare-wire connections or relying on friction-fit plugs that can unseat in a vibration-prone environment. The AV7005BK provides a permanent, tool-secured termination point that stays put once wired. The black finish integrates cleanly with Middle Atlantic's AV furniture and Middle Atlantic rack accessories product line.
Compatibility
Designed for use with AV rack and furniture panel systems that accept single-port insert modules — including Middle Atlantic's TLFD, SPDIF, and custom-config face plate assemblies. Compatible with any source or destination device using a standard 3.5mm TRS stereo connector. Verify the specific face plate or panel slot dimensions before ordering; Middle Atlantic offers multiple insert form factors and not all accept the same module footprint. TAA Compliant: No — confirm project compliance requirements before specifying on government or federally funded installations.
Installation Notes
Terminate signal conductors to the captive screw block using a small flat-blade screwdriver — no soldering required. Captive screws retain the wire without a separate locking nut, reducing the chance of an open circuit from a loose conductor after panel assembly. Observe correct left/right/ground wire assignment to the screw positions to avoid channel swapping or ground-loop issues at commissioning.
