Digital Modular Connector

DMC 5.5

The CPE DMC 5.5 (Digital Modular Connector 5.5) is a customizable rectangular connector, which each customer can build according to his needs, depending on the number of the requested connections and current carrying capacity.

It uses the same philosophy of the ‘Digital Building’: elementary bricks connected to obtain a complex building. The DMC 5.5 consists of different types of plastic building blocks, with several types of contacts, in the same metallic frame. Each block, depending on its size, can contain a different number of pins or socket contacts.

The socket hyperboloid shaped contacts increase the reliability of the connector and its current carrying capacity, ensuring a high mate / demate duty cycle and an extraordinary resistance to shock and vibration.

All these characteristics make the DMC 5.5 useful especially for military or railway environments, where telecom or data exchanging applications are necessary.

CPE developed plastic modules with 2, 3, 5, 17 contacts, and modules with 9 or 30 contacts are developed on request.

The plastic blocks can accommodate two families of contacts: soldered contacts for cables or PCBs and crimped contacts for cables, each one with its own current carrying capacity.
