The MS3116J10-6P is a newly developed six-position military-style circular electrical connector from Premier Cable. It belongs to the MIL-DTL-26482 Series I interface family and features a size 10 shell, a 10-6 contact arrangement, and a straight cable plug configuration. Its internal construction incorporates six male pin contacts designed to mate with compatible socket receptacles.

Premier Cable developed this product to provide a flexible connection option for equipment requiring six electrical circuits, detachable interfaces, and customized wiring configurations. With appropriate contact assignments, wire selection, and harness planning, the connector helps establish a more organized electrical interconnection structure.

Product Description

The connector uses solder cup termination, allowing individual conductors to be soldered directly to their assigned contacts. This construction supports custom cable assemblies and equipment wiring harness development. Its J-style configuration also incorporates cable-sealing components to help improve environmental protection at the cable entry.

In industrial equipment, military electronics, and mobile systems, multiple control units often require separate electrical circuits for power distribution, signal feedback, and control communication. Conventional distributed connection arrangements can increase interface count, complicate cable routing, and make maintenance more demanding.

The MS3116J10-6P brings six individual electrical contact positions into one compact circular interface. Its straight plug configuration is suitable for cable-end installation, while the bayonet coupling mechanism supports convenient equipment assembly, disconnection, and servicing.

Product FAQ

How Can a Six-Position Connector Be Used in Multi-Signal Systems ?

Multi-signal systems often need to transfer different functional signals between electronic modules, including control commands, operating status, feedback information, and auxiliary control signals.A six-position connector provides a unified interface for these circuits. Engineers can assign individual positions according to the system schematic and establish clear signal connection relationships.

Signal types, operating voltage, current, and electromagnetic compatibility requirements should also be considered to ensure that all circuits meet system design requirements.

How Can a Six-Position Connector Support Long-Term Equipment Maintenance ?

Equipment operating over long periods may undergo repeated maintenance, cable replacement, and module upgrades. Standardized connector part numbers, wiring assignments, and technical documentation help reduce circuit identification inconsistencies between maintenance stages.

Original wiring diagrams, cable numbers, production batch information, and inspection records should be retained to support configuration traceability and replacement cable assembly development.

How Should the MS3116J10-6P Be Maintained ?

Routine maintenance should focus on physical damage, abnormal mechanical conditions, interface contamination, and cable support. If any issues are identified, inspection and corrective actions should follow the equipment maintenance procedures. Cleaning methods should be compatible with the connector materials, avoiding chemicals that may damage surfaces or insulating components.

Can the MS3116J10-6P Be Used for OEM Development Based on Customer Technical Drawings ?

OEM support and custom cable assembly development can be evaluated according to individual project requirements. Customers can provide product drawings, wiring assignments, cable lengths, technical specifications, and required quantities. Premier Cable can then evaluate the product configuration, prototype development, and volume production arrangements.
