• Features a wide range of configurations
• High current-carrying capacity
• UL rated for 600V peak
• Compact design with narrow housings
• Modern, mixed-technology connection solution

Application

The 960258-8100-AR-TR connector is ideal for industrial, instrumentation and wiring harness applications including commercial electronics, medical devices, testing and measurement equipment, marine and military systems. It is designed to deliver high reliability in high vibration and shock environments.

Working Principle

The 960258-8100-AR-TR connector features two housings that mate together when connected. The header housing contains the male contacts, while the receptacle housing contains the female contacts. When connected, these contacts form the electrical connection between two pieces of equipment. The wide range of configurations allows for custom designs to meet the specific needs of the application.

The contacts are made from a flexible high-speed material, which allows them to flex when mated. This flexing action provides superior electrical contact over a standard stiff connector. The contacts are rated for a current-carrying capacity of 24A. This provides a long-lasting connection that can withstand harsh environments. The contacts also feature a UL rating of 600V peak for added safety.

Conclusion

The 960258-8100-AR-TR connector is an ideal choice for a wide range of industrial, instrumentation and wiring harness applications. It features a robust design with flexible high-speed contacts, a wide range of configurations, a UL rating of 600V peak, and a high current-carrying capacity. The two-piece header and receptacle system provides a reliable electrical connection in harsh environments.
