Extron 5.0 mm, 2 pole, green, screw lock (part number 100-463-01) is the two-position, screw locking captive screw connector on Extron's 5.0 mm pitch, supplied ten to a package.

Two positions on the wider pitch is the shape of a single speaker feed or a DC power drop, and the screw lock version adds a mechanical hold so the plug does not creep out of its block under cable weight or vibration. That matters in ceiling voids, mobile carts and equipment that gets moved. The terminals take considerably heavier copper than the 3.5 mm connectors do, and each conductor is clamped by its own captive screw.

Key Capabilities

• Two positions on Extron's 5.0 mm captive screw contact pitch.
• Screw lock design mechanically secures the plug in its mating block.
• Accepts 12 to 22 AWG conductors, well beyond the 3.5 mm range.
• Suited to amplified speaker feeds and DC power terminations.
• Green housing marks it out from the black 5.0 mm parts on the same rack.
• Ten connectors per package for install builds and service stock.

Where It Is Used

Amplifier racks, distributed speaker systems, powered display and signage cabinets, mobile AV carts, control rooms, and medical imaging or clinical display suites - anywhere an Extron amplifier or power distribution product uses a two-position 5.0 mm block and the connection must not shake loose.

Wiring Notes

Extron's guidance for captive screw terminations puts the exposed conductor at roughly 3/16 in (5 mm). More than that and the two contacts can bridge; less and the wire may withdraw even after the screws are set. Do not tin the strands first - tinned copper loses its shape and the connection slackens over time. Tighten the locking screws once the conductors are seated.
