516 Series Rectangular Rack & Panel Connectors
- Technology
- Rectangular and multipole interconnect
- Partner
- EDAC
The EDAC 516 Series of rectangular multipole ‘Rack & Panel’ connectors offer high-reliability connections and are ideal where large amounts of wires require terminating to a panel, as used in applications including broadcast, railway signalling, oil & gas control and general industrial systems.
Available in contact configurations ranging from 14 to 120 positions, the contact design allows for gas-tight connection and a high degree of shock and vibration resistance. Ease of mating is accomplished through the actuating screw and lock nut system.
