DC 3.5mm power jack connector 2-pin
Product description
Reliable power connections matter, especially when you are modifying small electronics or replacing a socket on an everyday device. This DC 3.5mm x 1.35mm 2-pin female power jack panel mount connector helps you create a secure mounting point for 12V DC power equipment, such as audio gear, surveillance devices, LED strip lights and routers.
If you are looking for a practical option for power extension, device repair or a cleaner panel build, these panel mount connectors are designed to be straightforward to fit and use. The 10-pack format gives you spares for multiple projects, and the mounting hardware included in the box makes it easier to plan ahead for ongoing maintenance or replacements. 🔧
Key features
These DC power jack connectors are built around the DC 3.5 x 1.35mm size, which is commonly used for 12V DC power supply equipment, according to the product description. They use a 2-pin solder terminal approach, so you can wire the connector to your cable and then solder for a solid electrical connection. 🧩
The panel mount design is a real advantage when you want your power input to sit neatly on an enclosure, a device case, or a small electronics project. Instead of relying on loose connections, you mount the jack through the opening and then secure it with the included hexagonal nut. This is useful for builds where the power socket needs to be accessible, stable and repeatable.
You also get a set that is aimed at practical work, not complicated tooling. The instructions described for use focus on inserting the cable into the hole, twisting and locking the connector in place, and then soldering. Take note that the final step still involves soldering, so it is best if you are comfortable with basic DIY electronics work. 🙂
For many people, the appeal is simple, buy a small, compatible connector size, mount it to a panel and use it for everyday setups. Whether you are repairing a power input on a media player or building a tidy setup for audio or AV equipment, this DC 3.5mm x 1.35mm socket format gives you a dependable starting point.

What to know before buying
Before ordering, it helps to confirm your existing socket size and mounting requirements. This connector is specified as DC 3.5 x 1.35mm and the mounting hole diameter is listed as 7.7 mm, so you should check that your panel opening matches. If you are modifying a device, measure the opening on the housing first so you do not run into fit issues mid project.
It can also help to think about your end use. The description highlights use cases that include power extension, device modification, and repair, along with small home appliances and car accessories, plus audio and AV equipment. If your setup uses a 12V DC power supply, this connector size is positioned as a suitable accessory for keeping your power input reliable.
In terms of installation, the listed approach is simple. You insert the cable into the hole, twist and lock into place, and then solder. That combination of mechanical locking and soldering can be especially useful for small projects where you want a connection that is stable under normal movement when plugging and unplugging.
If you are planning multiple repairs or building several units, the 10-pack format provides practical value. It is a handy way to keep spares close by, especially if you work on audio equipment, LED strip power wiring, or surveillance device enclosures where power sockets may need replacing over time. You can also keep the nuts included in the pack, since mounting hardware is part of the provided set.
It is worth remembering that this product is described as a female power plug connector for panel mounting. If your project requires a different gender, pin configuration or connector size, you should match those details carefully before you proceed.
Worth noting
It’s a good fit if you need a DC 3.5mm x 1.35mm 2-pin female panel mount power jack for 12V DC equipment and you are comfortable with a solder terminal connection. It makes sense if you are replacing a socket on small audio, AV or similar devices and you want the power input to sit securely through a panel opening. It might not suit you if your enclosure hole size is not 7.7 mm or if your project uses a different DC jack size. For many do-it-yourself repairs and small electronics builds, this 10-pack gives you enough connectors to cover one job and still have spares for the next round of maintenance.
