Introduction

End-Entry connectors include a hood and integral cable clamp for cable exit from the end of the connector.

• The standard-orientation plug has the cable
  clamp on the position-1 end, and the standard-orientation socket has
  the clamp on the high position end.
• Cables may be
  extended end-to-end (i.e., running cable) by mating
  standard-orientation plugs and sockets, or doubled back by mating a
  standard-orientation connector with a reverse-orientation mate.
• Cables
  may exit either direction on a cable-to-panel application by choosing
  standard or reverse-orientation, depending on the desired direction of
  cable exit.
• Pointed-nose versions of the
  standard-orientation, 50-position size are slightly smaller than the
  square-end product and are suited to applications with limited space
  such as bridging adapters, etc.
• #4-40 versions include
  screws that are 3/4? long, suitable for locking directly to the body of
  another connector. For locking to connectors panel-mounted with
  screwlock hardware, shorter screws are required. See pages 6-51 thru
  6-53 for these and other accessories, such as dust covers.

Features

Patented contact terminates Discrete Wire (loose or jacketed cable) without stripping or soldering solid- and stranded-wire versions available.

• All-plastic design reduces cost.
• Available in plug and socket styles in 50 and 64 position sizes.
• Includes InstaLatch passive latch feature for automatic latching. Sockets are also available without latches.
• Available
  with .125\” or #4-40 mounting holes. 50-position size plug also
  available to lock with industry-standard Bail Latches.
• Designed for panel mount, 180° (Top-Entry), or 90° (Standard) / 270° (Reverse) End-Entry cable application.
• Integral Cable Clamp on End-Entry versions provides superior strain relief, even with hood removed.
• Full range of application tooling is available for termination, unlatching, etc.
• UL Recognized – Files E170218 (UL1977), E130965 (UL1863).
• CSA Approved – File LR31996-7.
