The Banana Plugs (red p/n J048, black p/n J049) are primarily used 12-volt alternate power source or battery chargers. The picture in the middle shows size difference between the standard and mini banana plugs. Right picture shows connection on a front panel of a DRS-100.
The Binding Posts (black p/n J011, red p/n J011-1) can accept a single or BNP (double) type male plug. The post can also accept bare wires by rotating the binding post cap and either pinching the bare wires or inserting the wires through a pre-drilled hole found on the binding post shaft. This item is commonly found on hard wire comm. boxes. The picture to the right shows the female binding posts installed on the front panel of an MK2-DCI Intercom with BNPs inserted.
The Banana Jacks (red p/n 211052-001, black p/n 211052-002) are used for tender headsets, hand-held microphones and charging/power. The picture to the right shows the banana jacks installed on the front panel of an MK2-DCI Intercom with Banana Plugs inserted.
The Mini Banana Plugs (black p/n J019, red p/n J019-1) are used primarily for 12-volt alternate power sources or battery chargers. The picture to the right shows the mini banana plugs connected to a mini double banana bulk head jack.

The Mini Double Banana Jack (p/n J020) is used primarily on front panels for 12-volt alternate power sources or battery chargers.

The Mini Double Banana Plug (p/n 211162-000) is used with the mini double banana jack on the ComBox Silver Bullet. It looks similar to the standard banana plug but is much smaller. The picture to the right shows the size difference between a BNP and mini banana plug.

 The SP-100 connector (male p/n 211151-000, female bulkhead p/n 211139-000) is used on our SP-100 front panel to connect a hand-held microphone. It is a 4-pin connector. The male is shown on the left, the female bulkhead in the middle, and the two connected on the right.
