Noodling for catfish takes guts. Not knowing what might be lurking in the hole as you plunge your hand into the murky abyss is another level of uncertainty. I don’t like to take chances, whether it’s a deep hole underwater or an electrical connection I can’t visually confirm. Amphenol Commercial PwrBlade MiniMezz Connectors feature built-in high blind mate guide posts that enable 0.8mm of gather ability to ensure proper connection in space-constrained applications such as EV charging, communications, telecom, servers, data, and industrial and automation. The PwrBlade MiniMezz connectors support 8mm to 20mm millimeter stack height combinations at 1mm increments for any configuration of power and signal contacts. The connectors provide high current density for up to 45A at a voltage rating of 32VDC. Termination flexibility with a modular tooling design allows connection with various PCB layouts. The durability of 200 mating cycles and a UL 94V-0 rating offer confident connector reliability.
