Feature: 16 solder cup contacts provide high-density signal and power interconnects, reducing harness complexity and enabling more capable assemblies. Business Impact: Higher pin count supports richer functionality without increasing panel space, lowering overall system weight and cost. Application: Aerospace harnesses and industrial control panels that require compact, multi-pin connections. Feature: 1/3 Bayonet coupling offers secure, vibration-resistant mating with quick release. Business Impact: Faster assembly and maintenance cycles, reduced tool requirements, and improved field reliability. Application: Harsh-environment equipment subject to vibration such as aircraft enclosures and heavy machinery. Feature: Cadmium plating on an aluminium shell provides corrosion protection with light weight. Business Impact: Extended service life in corrosive environments and lower lifecycle replacement costs. Application: Outdoor or moisture-prone installations in defense or industrial plants. Feature: Square flange receptacle with straight backshell adaptor enables straightforward mounting and panel fitment. Business Impact: Simplified installation and better alignment tolerance, reducing installation time and rework. Application: Equipment housings and control panels with strict mounting geometries. Feature: Operating temperature range from -40 °C to 125 °C. Business Impact: Broad operating envelope supports both cold-start and hot-operating scenarios, improving reliability and uptime. Application: Aerospace, industrial automation, and harsh-environment environments requiring temperature resilience.
