Product Description

Overview

The KUPO KM16M is the plug / male insert for the KM16 Multi-Pin connector system. It provides the defined 16-contact electrical insert used inside the matching housing and hood assembly for rugged multi-circuit power and signal-style interconnect work.

Why It Matters

The insert is where the connector stops being just hardware and becomes a wired assembly. KM16M gives technicians a matched male plug side with hard-silver-plated copper alloy contact surfaces, M3 nickel-plated terminal screws, and 0.5 to 2.5 mm² conductor accommodation.

Key Features

  • 16-pin plug / male insert for KUPO KM16 connector assemblies
  • Glass-fiber reinforced polycarbonate V-0 insert material supports durability and flame performance
  • Copper alloy contacts with hard-silver-plated contact surfaces support reliable low-resistance connections
  • Steel M3 nickel-plated terminal screws provide secure conductor termination
  • 0.5 to 2.5 mm² cross section range supports common multi-pin cable assembly work

Applications

Use it for touring and entertainment multi-pin cable builds, industrial connector assemblies, venue interconnects, rental-house repair work, and equipment cabling that needs a rugged multi-contact plug-and-socket system.

Compatibility

Use with matching KM16 housings and hood components, and mate with the corresponding 16-pin socket insert. Do not mix KM10 and KM16 parts.
