Molex MLX Power Connectors

Molex MLX Power Connectors are an optimal solution with industry-standard terminals for wire-to-board and wire-to-wire combinations. These power connectors are glow wire compliant with a slit-pin design, allowing operators to avoid mismating during the assembly process. The MLX connector plugs come in a panel mount or free-hanging versions making it economical by enabling the use of smaller PCBs with fewer drilled holes. These MLX connectors can operate within the temperature range from -55°C to +105°C with a maximum voltage of up to 600V. Molex MLX power connectors with the durability of 50 mating cycles are useful in networking, industrial automation, commercial vehicles, and ATMs.
