Overview


Expanding vehicle functionality demands are increasing terminal requirements for devices and modules. Customers need custom-tooling to maintain design flexibility. The stackable nature of the stAK50h Unsealed System allows easy connection and eliminates custom tooling.

Different terminal strategies and designs in the transportation industry add complexity to the end design of the connector interface, which can lead to mis-mating and faulty connections. The stAK50h Unsealed Connection System’s headers and receptacles are color-matched to enable quick identification and easy assembly. A CPA ensures proper connector mating.

Customers order different circuit connectors for different automotive applications from different sources. This makes the process complex and may cause matching or mating issues. The stAK50h offering ranges from 12-to 56-circuit receptacles which can be used in applications from low-current-signal (5.0A) to high-power applications (30.0A).
