Quick mating panel
and cable
connectors
Description
The versatile “ SMS “ Quick mating panel
and cable connectors are a highly cost-
effective system approach to solving the
constant demand for more cost effective
interconnection techniques.
It is a range of multiway connectors using
N° 16 TRIM TRIO .0625” (1.6mm) diameter
contacts and available in 10 contact
arrangements from 2 to 36 positions.
Having no additional hardware, Panel
receptacle connectors snap and lock
into panel cutouts and cable plugs quick
connect and disconnect with positive
retention locks.
Cable plug connectors also feature pin-
protection skirts, positive polarisation and
can be supplied with or without integrated
strain relief hoods.
Cable receptacle connectors (only
with integrated strain relief hoods) are
developed to mate with cable plug
connectors thus offering solutions for cable
to cable applications.
Features and benefits
• Available in 10 contact arrangements.
• Self mountable panel receptacle with
positive housing retention.
• Cable plugs with retaining latches for
positive locking.
• Cable plug has pin protection skirt to
prevent damage of male contacts
• Positive polarization keys prevent
mismating.
• Cable plug and receptacle have integrated
strain relief hood which can take a wide
range of cables.
• Cable plug and receptacle have
discrimination cavities in between contact
cavities, thus offering discrimination
without contact loss.
• UL recognized File Nr.: E238675

Accessories for standard Quick mating connectors
Pin protection shroud for panel mount receptacle (SMS--CSB1)
When pins are inserted into the panelmount
receptacle half (SMS--R1) of the Quick
mating connector, an optional pin
protection shroud can be installed.
The shroud is mounted at the same time
as the receptacle by holding the shroud
against the mating side of the panel with
both cutouts lined up. The receptacle is
then inserted in place, trapping the shroud
between the receptacle and panel. The use
of the pin protection shroud reduces the
allowable thickness of the panel from 2.3 to
1.6 mm max.
