Harwin now offers a wider connector range from stock

“The market has responded very positively to our program of making popular Mix-Tek connector configurations available off-the-shelf as it enables design engineers to respond to decreasing design cycle times and purchasers to be flexible with their scheduled orders. This program immediately enables customers to benefit from the size, weight, performance and cost advantages offered by this high-rel interconnect system,” commented Graham Cunningham, Product Manager at Harwin.

Harwin’s Datamate Mix-Tek connector range can be customer-specified in a huge number of configurations of signal, power and coax contacts. Harwin has made the most commonly-chosen variations available as standard items in order to respond to industry demands for fast turn-around. The new horizontal format and coax contact variants add to 41 other configurations that are also stocked as standard items, these include power only configurations from 2-10 power contacts and mixed contact configurations from 2 signal/2 power through to 12 signal/4 power. The standard range focuses on the most popular male PCB contact styles mated with female crimp options. Hexagonal slotted Jackscrews are offered across the range.

Datamate Mix-Tek connectors feature power contacts rated for use at up to 20 amps, signal contacts are rated at up to 3 amps and the 50 ohm coax contacts are rated at 6 Hz. Compling with BS9525-F0033 and CECC 75101-008, the connectors feature polarized mouldings which carry the UL94V-0 rating.
