iMINI C: Robust Small‑Form‑Factor Connectors for Harsh Environments

As the smallest connector in the product line, the iMINI C is ideal for tight spaces that do not require various connections. The robust SFF connector can perform in demanding, harsh-environment applications where size and reliability are crucial.

The miniature high-reliability connector is engineered to maximize the number of connections into a small footprint, effectively reducing the total area of the printed circuit board (PCB) and overall equipment height.

The iMINI Series is available in multiple contact configurations and can be used in various applications for signal or power, up to a 300V rating.

Specifications for the iMINI C include:

• Available Contact Sizes: 9, 10, or 12
• Basic Plug Max. OD: 1 ¼"
• Cable Diameter: Maximum of 0.52"
• Coupling Thread Size: 1 1/8" – 16 UN
• Max Wire Size: 14 AWG
• Overmold Length with Strain Relief: 2"
• Receptacle Mounting: ¾" NPT
• Receptable OD: 1 1/8" square

The rugged construction of the iMINI C consists of a small metal shell connector with a threaded coupling. It is available in either two or three positions with 20 awg contacts, or seven positions with 22 awg contacts, making it an ideal quick-turn connector solution.

Applications

• Industrial automation
• Medical devices
• Military systems
• Portable equipment

When choosing between iMINI connectors, it is important to evaluate the following considerations:

1. Contact size (wire gauge)
2. EMI/RFI shielding requirements
3. IP rating (environmental sealing)
4. Number of circuits
