UTXTM PV Cable Connector
The UTX™ from Amphenol Industrial Solar Technologies
(AIST) is a robust, triple-certified DC connector with UL
6703 1500V, IEC 62852 1500V (Class A), and JET IEC
61730 1500V specifications, making it the first connector
available for usage in all major global PV markets. The
UTX™ is an evolution of AIST’s well-known H4 connector,
with the same solar industry-standard mating configuration,
Amphenol’s low resistance RADSOK® contact technology,
ability to accept wire gauges from 14AWG/2.5mm² to
8AWG/10mm², and an IP68 rating. Enhancement‘s over
the H4 include the UTX™’s ratcheting gland back nut,
which prevents backspin once the nut is tightened. The total
volume and characteristics of the materials used to make
the UTX™ have been optimized to result in a more efficient
and robust design. By using gland nuts, environmental
gaskets, wire-retention collets, and contacts that accept
multiple wire gauges, part count and total SKUs go down,
while cost-savings go up. AIST’s UTX™ connector is the
ideal choice for all PV modules and installations, regardless
of end-market, around the world.
Features:
• Triple-Certified to by UL,TÜV, and JET to 1500V
• Guaranteed to reliably mate with AIST’s entire
PV product line
• NEC Code Compliant (no locking sleeve required)

• UTX-XL cable OD range from Ø7.6mm to Ø9.3mm
• IP68 Rating (mated)
• UL94 V-0 (self extinguishing)
• RoHS, REACH, PAHS, and Halogen-free compliant
• Wide operating temperature range of -40°C to 90°C
