Mini XLR connectors are waterproof

SWITCHCRAFT Mini XLR connector is waterproof to IP66 (ingress protection) and completely protects against dust and jets of water. Devices help wireless microphone manufacturers shrink down their bodypacks. Products have become an industry standard, even being used for non-audio applications such as medical devices. These sealed devices are also intermateable with unsealed ‘TA style’ Mini XLRs, and the panel connector is sealed when unmated as well (IP65). Products are made in the USA. http://www.materatech.com
