ZIF Connectors

DL Product Introduction
he Cannon DL Series of Zero Insertion
Force (ZIF) connectors fill the need in the
medical, commercial/industrial,
computer and peripheral equipment market places
for low-cost, high performance multiple-wire
power and signal connectors.
T
DL connectors feature: a minimum rated life of
10,000 complete mating and unmating cycles with
no performance loss; can be mated and unmated
in less than two seconds even with as many as
2496 contacts; and they cost less (often as much
as 25% less) per mated line than singular high-
density rack-and-panel connectors.
Simple. Effective. Reliable. Durable.
Combining their special design with commercial-
grade materials and low cost crimp, PCB and
wrappable hermaphroditic contacts, that may be
hand or machine terminated, makes the DL Series
of ZIF connectors the finest low-cost-per-mated-
line I/0 connectors available today.
