Eaton JDXEP0U08FSN Sealed Breakaway Connector - Front Mount
Part Number: JDXEP0U08FSN
Quick Summary
The Eaton JDXEP0U08FSN sealed breakaway connector is a rugged front-panel receptacle designed for demanding industrial environments. Engineers frequently seek interconnects that withstand vibration, wide temperature swings, and repeated mate-demate cycles without signal degradation. As you evaluate this series, keep in mind critical certifications such as CE compliance for European markets, IP-rated protection for equipment housings, and SIL considerations where safety interlocks or fail-safe behavior are required. The 8-contact layout with solder cup contacts and brass shell delivers reliable, low-resistance connections, while the non-reflective black chrome finish reduces glare in bright installations. This product aligns with maintenance-friendly, modular designs, offering predictable performance and a clear path to compliant integration in automation and control panels.

FAQs
For panel mounting, ensure the housing cutout matches the front panel receptacle footprint and that layout 08 aligns with the eight solder cup contacts. Use proper panel sealing practices around the receptacle and ensure the connector is mated vertically to prevent binding. Note that this model has no backshell option, so plan enclosure protection accordingly.
The connector provides eight solder cup contacts in a front-mount receptacle with a brass shell finished in non-reflective black chrome. It operates from -40 °C to 125 °C and features a push-pull breakaway coupling with unloaded contacts. Contacts are socket/female, suitable for reliable soldered connections in demanding environments.
Yes, its sealed breakaway design with a brass shell and corrosion-resistant plating is intended for rugged environments. The eight-contact layout supports complex interconnects, while the front panel mount provides straightforward integration into control panels and mobile equipment, making it appropriate for aggressive vibration and temperature cycles common in heavy industry and aerospace-adjacent installations.
While the data specifies mechanical and environmental specs, verify CE compliance for European markets and assess IP-rated protection in your enclosure. For safety-critical uses, consider SIL requirements within your system architecture and consult the manufacturer’s certification documentation to confirm any additional standards applicable to your installation.
The JDX series reduces maintenance and field service time through durable solder cup terminations, reliable mating under vibration, and a simplified front-panel design. Although upfront costs may be higher than basic connectors, long-term ROI comes from lower downtime, fewer re-terminations, and easier replacement in harsh industrial or mobile applications.
