Feature → Business Impact → Application: The SMS6SE5T uses a front-mount panel receptacle design with 6 contacts and PCB 90° orientation, enabling compact assemblies with predictable mating alignment. This reduces interchange risk in tight panel spaces and accelerates installation times on automated control panels. Application-wise, it suits machine builders needing robust, space-conscious connections for sensors and actuators in compact automation gear. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Push-Pull coupling provides fast, tool-free mating and secure retention, lowering field maintenance time and minimizing vibration-related disconnects in vibration-prone environments. This is ideal for conveyor supports and robotic subsystems requiring reliable, repeated mating. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Tin pre plated contacts deliver consistent solderability and corrosion resistance, improving contact reliability in industrial environments. Use this in high-use interfaces between control boards and peripheral modules. Feature → Business Impact → Application: IP30 rated plastic shells with front mount panel receptacles simplify enclosure design and reduce protective enclosure costs, while maintaining compliance with UL94 V0 and REACH for regulated markets. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 6-position layout and 24.5 mm length, with a 30.2 mm width and 11.9 mm height, provide a compact footprint that supports mechanical integration in space-constrained panels while ensuring robust signal integrity across 6 circuits.
