Sealed construction with a robust push-pull breakaway coupling provides safe, tool-free disconnections while maintaining enclosure integrity under vibration and dust exposure. This design reduces field damage during maintenance, lowers re-termination time on critical control panels, and simplifies safe disengagement in time-critical shutdown sequences. 12-position layout with socket (female) solder cup contacts delivers high wiring density without sacrificing reliability in limited-panel spaces. The 1-12 arrangement supports compact harnessing, simplifies color-coding and termination planning, and the unloaded contacts let technicians tailor terminations to their wire type and insulation, reducing post-install rework and improving overall wiring quality. Brass shell with non-reflective black chrome plating enhances durability and reduces glare in bright industrial environments. The brass construction provides rugged mechanical strength while the plating offers corrosion resistance and a low-reflectivity finish that helps maintain visibility of indicator lighting and reduces accidental glare in control rooms; this supports long service life under vibration and temperature swings. Front-panel mount receptacle design simplifies installation and service access in crowded control cabinets. With no backshell option available for this model, designers can achieve a clean, panel-integrated appearance and rely on straightforward mating with the corresponding plug. The configuration supports on-site terminations and compatibility with common wire diameters and insulation materials. Operating temperature range from -40 to 125 °C ensures reliable performance in harsh environments typical of industrial automation and emergency systems. The sealed interface minimizes dust and moisture ingress, preserving signal integrity across diverse conditions, while the 12-contact layout and solder-cup contacts support predictable electrical behavior over time. Together, these features enable OEMs to meet stringent reliability targets and reduce field failure risk.

FAQs
The JDXEP1T12FSN is a front-panel mount receptacle in the JDX family, with a 12-position layout and socket (female) solder cup contacts. It ships unloaded and does not include a backshell option, so ensure your panel cutout matches Shell Size 1. Mate with the corresponding JDX plug for a secure push-pull breakaway connection.
Key specs include a wide operating temperature range from -40 °C to 125 °C, ideal for harsh environments. It uses solder cup contact delivery (unloaded) and provides a 12-contact layout. The brass shell is finished in non-reflective black chrome, offering corrosion resistance and low reflectivity for improved visibility inside control cabinets.
This sealed front-panel receptacle is well-suited for lighting and emergency systems, industrial automation, and rugged equipment harnesses. Its compact 12-position layout supports dense wiring while its breakaway coupling minimizes damage during maintenance or disconnections. The front-panel mount design simplifies field installation in control cabinets and equipment housings.
The product data provided does not specify formal certifications. For procurement, verify CE compliance, IP sealing ratings, and any SIL requirements with Eaton or the datasheet. In practice, sealed, front-panel Souriau/JDX components are designed to meet typical industry safety and reliability standards, but confirmation is essential for mission-critical or regulated applications.
The sealed breakaway design reduces field damage during disconnections and protects terminations from dust and moisture, lowering maintenance costs and downtime. The 12-position layout enables efficient wiring and faster harness assembly. For OEMs, using this front-panel receptacle simplifies replacement in serviceable equipment and supports predictive maintenance by enabling quick, safe disengagement without panel damage.
