Hello,
Does someone know a source for female 4,4 mm panel mount connectors in 5 contact TRRRS configuration?
Apparently they also go under the mnames TT Bantam 5 pin or Pentaconn.
(With 2 balanced channels plus ground)
I would like to use them for balanced stereo switching in a preamp front.

I found one version for PCB mounting here, but I need one for panel mounting:
https://www.audiophonics.fr/en/jack-44mm/female-jack-44mm-socket-5-poles-gold-plated-p-16413.html

Ideally, there are also versions for direct panel mounting available, but I did not find any.
Can someone point me in the right direction?
It seems odd, that there is a complete eco-system for boutique third party premium-4,4 mm plugs, but there are no female panel mount connectors available.

Thanks
Florian

Thanks,
although the link doesn‘t work for me (too many redirections).
But the one part I found on alibaba is the same as in my link above, so for PCB mounting, but it is cheaper from audiophonics.

One can eventually use this one as panel mount, when a fitting counter screw could be found.

But 30 USD is too expensive to just try it, and also I need a couple of them, so the overall cost would be too high.

Update:
There are others:

Quite expensive though
