Switchcraft’s cited Tini-QG product is identified as a Standard Connector Type Mini-XLR with 4 conductors.
Claim scope: V50 identification fact only; no wiring, protocol compatibility, installation or fabrication approval is inferred.
Switchcraft drawing TA_FS series revision B identifies F as female, S as sealed, and cable-size suffix 11 as the 2.54–3.05 mm range in its ordering code. The four-contact front view is labelled TA4FS series.
Claim scope: TA_FS customer drawing, one page, revision B dated 18-Dec-2015; no IP rating, exact suffix exterior difference or microphone pin assignment is inferred.
Recorded evidence only. An inspection date, publisher label, source link or generated packet is not independent technical review, hardware testing, fabrication approval or a compatibility verdict.
