Connectors are based on a novel carbon-fibre-filled plastic material with advanced EMI shielding abilities, and so can be used in applications that previously in the domain of metal connectors

The new plastic material uses built in fibres to achieve its shielding performance.

Major benefits are reduced cost and weight compared with full metal connectors with similar shielding characteristics.
The housing is highly conductive and also highly durable for harsh environment applications.

The lightweight connectors are IP65 rated and are therefore protected against dust and water splashes.

In long term testing the C16-3 EMI connector showed its ability to handle intensive temperature, damp heat cycles and also corrosion resistance in salt spray testing.

The connectors handle current up to 30A and are offered in many different contact layouts.
