The SBE 80 / SBO 60 connectors are designed to build upon the capabilities of two-pole SB connectors, offering enhanced power and signal transmission. These connectors feature up to 8 auxiliary power/signal contacts and an IEC 60950 touch-safe housing, minimizing potential contact with live circuits. They are suitable for applications requiring intelligent power switching, CAN and interlock loop circuitry, and power up to 20 amps per pole. The primary power contacts are silver-plated, providing durability for up to 10,000 mating cycles and supporting UL rated currents up to 80 amps per pole.
