SOCAPEX or SOCA for stage lighting
Socapex connectors are ideal for stage lighting applications because they can handle high voltage and current levels, while also being compact and easy to use. They are also designed to withstand the rigors of touring and live events, making them a popular choice for touring productions.
One of the key features of Socapex connectors is their modular design, which allows them to be easily customized to meet the specific needs of a stage lighting system. For example, a lighting rig may require a combination of power and control signals, which can be accommodated with the various pin configurations available with Socapex connectors.
