Panel Mount
“Panel mount” products are connectors without hoods.They are typically used to provide signal I/O from a
system panel or cabinet, where strain relief to a cable jacket is not required.
Available with high barr ier insulators that extend beyond the end of the solder cup, physically isolating
adjacent contacts.
Standard versions have .103" mounting holes (sockets have .103" with float bushings) for use with #3
hardware, or .185" mounting holes for use with #8 hardware.
Select sizes are available with .120" mounting holes for use with #4 hardware, or with integral panel
clips, which allow snap-in front mounting for more cost-effective assembly.
Bail latching sockets are available, as are bail latching plugs.While the plugs would not be panel-
mounted, they are available for premold/solder over molding applications.
See page 6-4 for recommended standard panel cutout dimensions.
See page 6-51 for accessor ies such as mounting screws and dust covers, which make the use of Cinch
Miniature Ribbon connectors even more cost-effective in panel-mount applications.
See the appropriate cable connector section that follows for products that include hoods for
exposed-cable applications.

180° (Top-Entry) Cable
Top-Entr y products include a connector, hood, and associated hardware. They are typically used at the end of a cable, where it
is subject to physical strain and protection of the ter mination area is required.
Includes all hardware required to attach hood to connector.
Bail latching sockets have latch hardware integral to connector body, making cable assembly less costly.
Bail latching plugs include notches that lock with industry-standard bail-lock sockets.

90° (Standard) / 270° (Reverse) End-Entry Cable
End-Entr y connectors, available in 50 position size only, include a hood and integral cable clamp for cable exit from the end of
the connector
The standard-orientation plug has the cable clamp on the position 1/26
end, and the standard-orientation socket has the clamp on the position
25/50 end.
Cables may be extended end-to-end (i.e., “r unning cable”) by mating
standard-orientation plugs and sockets, or “doubled back” by mating a
standard-orientation connector with a reverse-or ientation mate.
Cables may exit either direction on a cable-to-panel application by
choosing standard- or reverse-orientation, depending on the desired
direction of cable exit.
Include screw that is 5/8" long, suitable for locking directly to the body
of another connector. For locking to connectors panel-mounted
with screw-lock hardware, shorter screws are required. See page 6-51
for these and other accessor ies, such as dust covers.
