How It Works
RC Stackable connectors break the normal convention of plug and receptacle mated sets. Instead, a single RC connector acts as both a plug and receptacle connector with a round pin "plug" contact at one end, a female socket "receptacle" contact at the other end and a solderless, compliant printed wiring boards (PWB) termination in the middle.
In addition, insulated wire connectors are available for signal input to the board stack. The RC connector has outpaced military specifications and is customizable to meet customer requirements.The connector contact configuration range is from 28 to 300 contacts. The connector can be configured to meet custom select load requirements.
