Bulkhead connectors?

[Chris Gibbs]

I'm looking for an 8 way bulkhead connector, you know the ones that have a plug on either side of a panel for easy disconection

Is there a special name for them 'cos I can't find one!

Cheers

Chris, if memory serves CAT use a lot of them. Try to find the nearest cat agents.

Also available from pheonix contact, their stuff is just horribly horribly expensive.

Hello Chris,

have a look at Farnell :
http://uk.farnell.com/bulgin/px0769-...50?Ntt=978-050

Or even better, ask for their catalogue (3500 pages !!)
You can order even 1 single item, sensibly priced, and (in Belgium) delivered next day withhout cost. Amazing. Have used them a lot for our automatic Lap timing system (www.chronostiming.be)

Cheers

Chris

Its one of those things that different people call different things.
But I would possibly call it a 'cable pass through' or even as you said, a bulkhead connector
