206306-1 – TYCO ELECTRONICS

The TYCO 206306-1 is a 37-position receptacle housing designed for panel mounting. It accepts female crimp contacts, typically size 20 or similar, depending on the specific contact series used within the housing. The housing material is likely a thermoplastic polymer, providing electrical insulation and mechanical protection for the installed contacts. The panel mount feature utilizes integrated mounting ears or flanges, allowing secure attachment to a panel cutout with specified dimensions. Mating compatibility is determined by the corresponding male connector or header designed to interface with this receptacle. The 206306-1 is commonly employed in applications requiring a high-density, robust, and panel-mountable interconnect solution, such as industrial control systems, telecommunications equipment, and instrumentation. The specific contact retention mechanism within the housing is dependent on the contact series, but typically involves a locking lance or similar feature.
