CX08BF Ilme Female insert 8 contacts & shielded bus connectors

Why Choose the Ilme CX08BF Female Shielded BUS Insert?

The Ilme CX08BF is a female 8-pole shielded BUS modular insert designed for reliable data and signal transmission within industrial machinery and automation systems. Part of the Ilme MIXO BUS series, it combines eight contact positions with an integrated shield connection, helping maintain signal integrity in electrically demanding industrial environments.

Rated at 5 A and 50 V, the CX08BF uses separately ordered CI series female crimp contacts and supports conductor cross-sections from 0.08 mm² to 0.52 mm². The shielded multi-axial construction makes the module particularly suitable for industrial BUS and communication circuits where protection against electromagnetic interference is important.

The CX08BF can be installed in the compatible CX02B MIXO two-seat holder or the CX1/2BD size 21.21 single-seat adapter insert. Its robust polycarbonate construction, wide operating temperature range and minimum 500 mating-cycle mechanical life make it well suited to demanding industrial data interfaces.
