The Centi Line - .075" Contact Spacing
The Cannon Centi connectors are especially
suitable for commercial applications such as
computers, instrumentation, communications
and audio equipment. They are available in D
All Centi connectors use the reliable twist pin
The twist pin contact is recessed within the
insulator housing while the rugged cylindrical
socket is exposed. When the connector halves
are mated, the chamfered sockets guide the
contact design in a 5 amp version terminated
on .075 (1.91) and .100 (2.54) centers. The
Centi contact is crimp removable, connectors

contact, now under compression, forms a
multi-point contact with the CentisocketTM to
provide a high degree of reliability.
