XLR connectors are balanced audio connectors, with male ends (3 pins) typically outputting signals and female ends (3 holes) receiving them. They use a locking mechanism to prevent accidental disconnection. Most, or standard, XLR cables feature a male connector on one end and a female connector on the other, commonly used for microphones, mixers, and speakers.

Key features:
- Male XLR: Features three protruding pins (prongs) inside a metal housing. It is generally used to send signals out of a device, such as from a microphone.
- Female XLR: Features three, five, or more holes (receptacles) that accept the male pins. It is generally used to receive signals, such as on a mixing board or powered speaker input.
- Connection & Locking: They feature a locking, self-locking, or push-to-release mechanism to secure the connection.
- Balanced Audio: XLR cables are balanced, meaning they reduce electromagnetic and radio frequency noise.
- Construction: They typically have a 3-pin configuration (for mono audio) but can have up to 10 pins.
