About Rectangular Connectors

Rectangular connectors like the MTA-156 series provide modular, high-density interconnections for internal wiring harnesses and panel interfaces. Their standardized pin layouts and polarized housings prevent misalignment, reducing installation errors in complex assemblies. These components are essential for creating serviceable, organized cable management systems.

Free-hanging (in-line) versions offer flexibility for field repairs and modular designs. Features like IDC termination eliminate soldering, speeding production while maintaining gas-tight connections. For legacy equipment maintenance or new designs requiring proven interconnects, these connectors balance cost efficiency with long-term performance.

Packaging

Bulk packaged for production environments. Contact PCX for reeled or custom packaging options.
