You're wiring a guitar amp panel, a PA input strip, or a piece of test gear and you need a 6.5mm mono jack that also acts as a switch. This Jaycar chassis socket is the open-switch type: the circuit closes when the plug is not inserted. Solder it to your board, mount it through the panel, and you've got a reliable input with built-in switching in one part. No separate relay, no extra wiring run
