Additional Details

The XMS-08V(N) connector housing requires compatible crimp contacts (sold separately) to terminate wires. These contacts are inserted into the housing after being properly crimped onto the wires. It's designed to mate with corresponding headers on a PCB. Its small size, vibration resistance, and reliable performance make it a great choice for automotive and industrial applications where secure connections are crucial. Using the correct crimping tool is essential to ensure a reliable and long-lasting connection. The polyamide housing provides good mechanical strength and electrical insulation.
