Hardware Q: Need a panel jack/plug set, 4 conductors, difficulty: 6.5 mm hole
an enclosure i'm repurposing project has 2 6.5mm round holes in rear panel. i'm looking kind of panel-mount jack, corresponding plug, can connect interior arduino-based guts of project couple of external devices.
the existing holes close together. drill them out 8mm not further.
the enclosure happens perfect in every other way. solid, brushed aluminum surfaces, existing connectors power , network, i'm looking hard connector style work 2 holes. "find enclosure" solution i'm hoping sidestep.

most of i've seen either 2 or 3 connector solutions (e.g. plain old 3.5 mm audio jacks), or 4th conductor ground , contacts outer part of jack , therefore enclosure body. other obvious choices midi or s-video style connectors big.
can recommend connector style fits size hole?
one of connectors supply power , control servo runs @ 7.4 v , has stall current of 6 a, needs sufficiently robust handle load, worst case.
thank you.
you have not told how many wires comming in , going out ?
if 2 holes small, why not drill or cut inbetween them , make them 1 larger hole take greater variety of suitable connectors ?
