The new thru-hole version joins the existing surface-mount connector to provide a low-profile solution suited for use in PCB-based LED strings, lighting controls, and other non-lighting applications that can benefit from an easy poke-in wire termination to the PCB. The connectors are now available in one or two positions, with single-position connectors offered in white or black for easy polarity identification. Gel-filled versions are available for indoor or outdoor application where moisture is an issue. The standard- and low-insertion-force versions of the connectors are side-to-side stackable on 4-mm centers.</p><p style="margin:0;">The TE poke-in connector offers quick and reliable wire termination as a low-labor alternative to hand soldering wires particularly when used with single-sided aluminum clad circuit boards. The poke-in LED connectors are available in tape and reel packages for high-speed SMT and thru-hole processing equipment and the high-temperature plastic housing is reflow solder process compatible.</p><p style="margin:0;">The RoHS compliant connector incorporates tin over nickel plated copper alloy contacts with a UL94-V0 rated high temperature thermoplastic housing. Packaged in reels of 800, the tape and reel packaging conforms to ANSI/EIA Standard 481-C.</p><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><p class="overview_features" style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:12px;color:#004961;margin:0 auto;font-weight:bold;">Key Features</span></p><ul><li>Connectors are available in 1 and 2 positions</li><li>Standard and Low Insertion Force connectors available</li><li>Accepts 18, 20 and 22 AWG solid wire; 18 and 20 AWG pre-bond stranded wire; 18 AWG stranded wire</li><li>Gel-filled versions are available for indoor moisture and outdoor application</li><li>Connectors are available in both black and white colors for polarity</li></ul><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin:0;"><span style="font-size:12px;color:#004961;margin:0 auto;font-weight:bold;">Applications</span></p><ul><li>LED Lighting Controls</li><li>General illumination LED fixtures</li><li>Interconnecting strings of printed circuit LED light modules</li><li>Various non-lighting applications that require attaching flying leads to printed circuit boards</li></ul><div style="clear:both;"></div> <div style="font-size: 90%;">Tags: connectors, industrial, lighting, circuit, te_alternative_energy, power, energy, te_connectivity, technolgy</div>
