Overmoulded cable assemblies

28 April 2010 Interconnection

Micro-Fit 3.0 overmoulded cable assemblies from Molex are designed to meet the need for a high contact-density connector for signal or power applications.

Available in two, four, six and 10 circuit sizes and 1, 3 and 5 metre lengths, the assemblies incorporate an overmoulded strain relief mechanism for reduced mechanical stress.

The double-ended cable assemblies are capable of carrying 5 A of current. The housing features fully isolated contacts on each side of the connection, offering electrical and mechanical protection to the terminals. The overmoulded strain relief reduces the mechanical stress on the wires and terminals during mating and unmating cycles. A positive latch on the housing prevents accidental disconnection caused by rough handling. The fully polarised housing prevents accidental mismating.
