How does HYSF prevent connector mismating (Keying)?

HYSF connectors feature physical Keying Features (Guide Pins and Grooves) molded directly into the rubber body. This ensures that a connector can only be mated in the correct orientation, protecting the electrical pins from being bent or shorted due to forced misalignment.

In dark or murky water, visual alignment is difficult.

  • Tactile Feedback: The operator can feel the “Guide Pin” engaging with the corresponding slot before the electrical pins make contact.
  • Visual Aid: We typically mark a White Dot or raised ridge on the connector body to indicate Pin 1 or the “Top” position.
  • Different Pin Counts: Obviously, an 8-pin male cannot mate with a 6-pin female, but even within the same series, the guide key prevents 180-degree rotation errors.
