AVX continues to develop innovative connectors for the industrial
electronics market that provide significant benefits over existing, outdated
connector solutions. The latest release is single vertical Wire-to-Board
(WTB) contacts that provide cost effective, yet robust discrete wire
termination without the expense of an insulator and assembly costs. This
new family of top and bottom entry contacts compliments the existing
vertical poke home connectors already on the market, providing a lower
cost solution without jeopardizing performance
The new contacts support both solid and stranded wires ranging from
24AWG down to 18AWG and current ratings as high as 12 amps. The set
of four contacts provide both top and bottom entry for FR4 and metal core
printed circuit boards.
