Molex CP-6.5 Wire-to-Wire, Wire-to-Board Connectors, Custom Wire Harness

Molex CP-6.5 Wire-to-Wire, Wire-to-Board Connectors

The Molex CP-6.5 Wire-to-Board Connector System is an innovative solution designed to simplify wire-to-board connections in various applications. With its foolproof interconnect system, this connector ensures quick and easy identification of mated pairs, eliminating any confusion during installation.

One of the standout features of this system is the color-coded housings on both the 6.50mm wire-to-board receptacles and PCB headers. These vibrant colors serve as visual indicators, allowing users to differentiate between compatible mating possibilities at a glance. By ensuring that connectors with mismatched colors do not mate, this system prevents any potential errors or damage caused by incorrect connections.

To further enhance its reliability, unique keying features are incorporated within each header and receptacle housing. This means that only properly matched connectors can be inserted into one another, preventing any accidental mismating that could lead to performance issues or safety concerns.

Additionally, the positive lock feature adds an extra layer of assurance when using this connector system. When fully mated, a distinct audible click can be heard, providing users with immediate feedback on successful connection completion. This not only saves time but also eliminates any doubts about whether the connection has been securely established.

Features

• A wide spectrum of housing colors allows quick identification of mating combinations for assembly and repair.
• Polarization keys on the housing rib eliminate mismating and consequent electrical shorting of applications.
• The positive lock feature on the housing produces an audible click when fully mated.
• Kinked solder tails provide added header-to-PCB retention during solder reflow.
• The absence of drain holes in the PCB headers ensures compatibility with a conformal coating (potting).
• Headers are +260°C wave-solder process capable and ideal for high-temperature assembly processing.
