Product Description
Overview
The KUPO KM10BC5 is the housing with protective cover for the KM10 Multi-Pin connector system. It provides the mechanical body for a 10-contact connector assembly, receiving the matching plug or socket insert and the selected hood hardware for a rugged touring, entertainment, or industrial multi-pin build.
Why It Matters
In a multi-pin connector, the housing is the part that takes the handling abuse before the insert ever sees the job. KM10BC5 gives the KM10 assembly an aluminum die-casting alloy body, oil-and-aging-resistant neoprene gasket, and zinc-plated steel locking levers so the connector can survive repeated setup and teardown.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why choose the cover version?
Choose the cover version when the connector body needs extra protection while staying in the same KM contact-count family.
Can KM10BC5 be mixed with another contact count?
No. KM10BC5 belongs to the KM10 family and should be matched with 10-pin inserts and compatible KM10 hoods.
What should be checked before assembly?
Check the insert gender, hood outlet direction, cable gland, conductor cross section, and mating connector. Multi-pin parts should be selected as a complete connector system.
