Other Connectors FAQ
What makes Other connectors different from standard connectors?
Other connectors incorporate a patented double-latch system that provides superior connection stability compared to conventional single-latch designs. The contact pins feature a unique hyperbolic shape that maintains constant pressure even after hundreds of mating cycles, ensuring consistent electrical performance throughout the product lifespan.
Can Other connectors be used in outdoor applications?
Absolutely. Our OC-200 and OC-300 series connectors meet IP67 and IP68 waterproof ratings respectively, making them ideal for outdoor use. They feature UV-resistant housing materials and special sealing gaskets that prevent moisture ingress even in continuous rainfall or temporary submersion conditions (up to 1 meter for 30 minutes for IP68 models).
How do I select the right Other connector for my application?
Consider three primary factors: current requirements (match or exceed your maximum expected current), environmental conditions (choose appropriate IP rating), and connection type (panel mount, cable-to-cable, or board mount). Our technical team can provide application-specific recommendations based on your voltage, temperature, and vibration requirements.
