GX16 Plug 5 Pin Male Female Aviation Connector

5 Pin GX16 Circular Connector

The GX16 5 Pin Male Female Aviation Connector is a circular electrical connector designed for applications where a secure and removable cable connection is required.

The connector uses the popular GX16 format and provides five pins for carrying electrical power or signals between connected equipment.

Male and Female Connector Pair

The set includes a male and female connector, allowing users to create a complete mating connection between two sections of a cable or between a cable and a panel-mounted device.

This is useful when designing custom wiring systems where equipment needs to be disconnected and reconnected easily.

Threaded Locking Mechanism

The GX16 connector uses a threaded coupling mechanism to secure the male and female connectors together. Once properly connected, the threaded shell helps prevent accidental separation caused by normal movement or cable handling.

Five-Pin Configuration

With five contacts, the connector can accommodate multiple electrical connections through a single connector.

Depending on the application, the five pins can be assigned to:

• Power
• Ground
• Sensor signals
• Control signals
• Communication lines
• Other low-voltage electrical connections

The appropriate pin assignment depends on the user's circuit design.

Panel and Cable Applications

GX16 connectors are commonly incorporated into custom enclosures and equipment. They can be used to create external connection ports while keeping internal wiring organized.

Typical applications include:

• Robotics
• Arduino projects
• Electronics prototypes
• Sensor connections
• Control panels
• Instrumentation
• DIY machinery
• Automation projects
• Audio equipment
• Laboratory equipment
• Custom cable assemblies
• Embedded systems

Easy to Integrate

The circular form factor makes the GX16 connector suitable for custom enclosures and equipment where a compact, mechanically secured connector is preferred over loose wire connections.

Note: Specifications such as rated voltage, rated current, mounting-hole dimensions, connector dimensions, and contact construction can vary between GX16 connector manufacturers and variants. Verify the specific product specifications before using it in a high-current or mains-voltage application.
