FAQs
The JDXFA1T12MSN is a front-panel mount plug with a 12-contact layout and solder cup contacts designed for panel installations. It is specified as a plug for panel mounting with unloaded contacts, meaning the back-end can be wired on assembly. Ensure the panel cutout and mounting hardware align with the product’s 1-shell size and brass construction for reliable sealing and mechanical integrity.
Key features include a brass shell with non-reflective black chrome plating and a sealed design that supports operation across a wide temperature range (-40 °C to 125 °C). The 12-contact layout and front-panel plug configuration provide reliable electrical interfaces in dusty, humid, or temp-fluctuating environments typical of industrial and outdoor installations.
Yes, the JDX family is designed for robust, sealed connections that align with aerospace and industrial control requirements. Its breakaway push-pull coupling, 12-contact layout, and sealed construction support high-vibration and mission-critical environments common in aerospace ground support and automotive control panels, while maintaining ease of maintenance and rapid disengagement when needed.
The sealed, front-panel design reduces moisture ingress and corrosion-related faults, lowering field maintenance. The solder cup contacts provide durable, low-resistance connections, reducing rework. Quick-disconnect Breakaway coupling also minimizes downtime during maintenance, delivering measurable uptime improvements and lower total cost of ownership over the product lifecycle.
The JDXFA1T12MSN is part of the Souriau JDX sealed-breakaway family, featuring a 12-contact layout and front-panel mounting. It is designed to be compatible with other JDX accessories and configurations, including standard panel cutouts and mating connectors, enabling scalable, modular assemblies without requiring extensive redesigns.
