Power Connectors deliver cutting-edge
current density at 23.0A per circuit; terminals provide
six independent contact points for long-term reliability in
virtually every industry and application
Feature and Benefits
Power-dense design with high-
current terminals, tight pitch and
row spacing
Terminal interface with six
independent points of contact
(split-box terminal design)
Extended barrel conductor crimp
Provides one of the highest current-
density options compared to existing
mid-range power connectors
Offers redundant, secondary current
paths for long-term performance and
reliability
Provides extremely strong terminal-to-
wire retention for long-term reliability
Allows system to be “hot plugged” at
48V/23.0A up to 30 cycles
Protects against potential damage
during handling and mating
Ensures secure retention when
receptacle and header are mated.
Delivers an audible click to provide
feedback that connector is fully mated
