Molex Ultra-Fit off-the-shelf cable assemblies

Off-the-Shelf Ultra-Fit cable assemblies deliver an 11.0A to 14.0A current rating and offer a variety of cable lengths with the tangless feature that allows the terminal locking mechanism to be incorporated into the receptacle housing.

Features

• Multiple mechanically keyed color-coded options
  • Allows same-circuit, multiple-connector use with virtually no chance of cross mating
  • Color coding provides visual indication of the proper mating connector — enabling faster assembly Optional TPA (terminal position assurance) retainer
  • Guarantees the terminal is fully seated in the housing to reduce terminal back-out
  • Retains terminal if main retention feature fails
• Positive-lock housing with anti-snag design
  • Ensures mated connector assemblies will not accidentally disengage
  • Provides an audible click while mating; Protects latch from damage due to wire snags
• Terminal interface with 6 independent points of contact (split-box terminal design)
  • Offers redundant, secondary current paths for long-term performance and reliability
• Internal locking mechanism on tangless receptacles
  • Ensure that tangless terminals are fully locked into place
• Inertia-enhanced latch on tangless receptacles
  • Improves usage via audible click when mating. Reduces the chance of wire entanglement in the latch
• 17% smaller footprint over similar power connectors
  • Provides PCB space savings with optimized current density. Allows for smaller packaging without sacrificing current carrying capabilities
• Ultra-low mating force terminal
  • Reduces operator fatigue and improves assembly compliance for high-circuit applications
• Fully isolated terminals
  • Protects against potential damage of the header and receptacle terminals during handling and mating
• Multi-color cable configurations with Ultra-Fit TPA Connectors available off the shelf
  • Has a design that supports development and production programs; multi-color cables ensure correct connection
