Triple certified DC cable connector Amphenol UTXCMA0AM optimized for global photovoltaic applications
Product Overview
The Amphenol UTX PV Cable Connector is a robust, triple-certified DC connector designed for global photovoltaic markets. It is an evolution of the H4 connector, featuring the same industry-standard mating configuration and Amphenols low resistance RADSOK contact technology. The UTX supports wire gauges from 14AWG/2.5mm to 8AWG/10mm and boasts an IP68 rating. Enhancements include a ratcheting gland back nut to prevent backspin and optimized material usage for a more efficient and robust design. This connector is ideal for all PV modules and installations worldwide, offering reduced part count and cost savings.
