Molex Flexi-Mate 24 AWG Cable Assemblies

Flexi-Mate 24 AWG cable assemblies maximise design flexibility, simplify wiring production and provide end-to-end space savings for LED panel-lighting applications

The Flexi-Mate family meets the Solid State Lighting (SSL) Industry’s needs for flexibility and space savings in applications requiring placement of LEDs on interconnecting panels across the width of the display or lighting fixture. The low-profile, 3.00mm mated height, of the connectors does not interfere with the luminescence angle of PCB mounted LEDs, ensuring light uniformity of the finished panel.

Flexi-Mate 24 AWG cable assemblies are supplied pre-crimped in standardcable lengths, meeting the needs of lighting panel manufacturers whotypically lack crimping capabilities. The system comprises board-to-boardharnesses used to connect LED light panels and driver-to-board harnesses to connect LED panels to the main power board. A wire loop configurationcan complete an open-loop signal. The cable assemblies mate with existingFlexi-Mate receptacles.

Key features of the compact, low-profile Flexi-Mate connectors include a dual-contact terminal design for secure electrical contact, space-saving positive side locks and mating guide features. Connectors meet IEC60838-2-2 requirements for LED modules.
